$1.70M

Median sale price (May 2026)

A ground-level read on Walnut Creek home values, days on the market, and buyer activity, and what the latest numbers mean for owners weighing their next move.

The market in May

Active listings of detached single-family homes in Walnut Creek rose to 49 in May, up 26% from April, giving buyers more to choose from. Pricing stayed strong. The median sale price rose 3.9% to about $1.70M, and homes sold at a median of 100.7% of their last list price in a median of 12 days on the market, the same pace as April.

Key numbers (May 2026)

  • Median sale price: $1.70M, up 3.9% from April
  • Median days on the market: 12, unchanged from April
  • Sale-to-list ratio: 100.7%, up 0.7 points
  • Active listings: 49, up 26%

What it means for owners

Buyers have more options than they did a month ago, but well-prepared homes are still selling quickly and at or above their last list price. That combination rewards accurate pricing and good preparation: a home set to recent comparable sales is clearing in under two weeks, while an optimistic price now competes against a deeper pool of choices.
