Market Data for: August 2025
The average sales price in Sunnyvale jumped to $853,758, up 28% from last year. In contrast, median price per square foot declined 11.4% to $187. Homes are taking longer to sell, with a median of 61 days on market, up more than 56% year-over-year.
Sunnyvale had just 46 homes for sale in August, down 9.8% from last year. New listings fell sharply by 30.8%, while pending sales surged 116.7%, showing renewed buyer demand. Closed sales held steady at 6. With 5.6 months of inventory, the market is balanced but trending toward competition for well-priced homes.
While prices are higher overall, sellers face longer timelines and fewer listings coming to market. Buyers benefit from more negotiating room on $/sf, but limited inventory means strong demand when the right home is listed.
Sunnyvale’s small number of monthly sales means percentage changes can look dramatic. Just a few high- or low-priced closings can move averages significantly. The Dunnican Team tracks long-term trends to help clients interpret the numbers with confidence.
