"A million dollars just isn't what it used to be when it comes to San Diego real estate. Because of appreciation, low interest rates, and San Diego's Draw as a retirement community, more homes are in the million-dollar category than was the case earlier. In fact, so far in 2005 San Diego County MLS shows that there has already been 2130 homes Sold in San Diego County for over $1,000,000 with an additional 607 that are currently in escrow! Looks like another record year.

Statewide, there were 221 sales for more than $5 million last year, 237 sales were in the $4-$5 million range, 690 in the $3 million range, 2,894 sales in the $2 million range, and the rest between $1 million and $2 million.

The numbers include home sales where it could be determined from public records that there was a buyer, a seller, that money changed hands, and that there was a legal transfer of property ownership.

Not included were property swaps, sales of multiple lots, teardowns, and large farm or ranch properties. Home sales to companies were included, as were sales to trusts. Rancho Santa Fe in San Diego County is a community where virtually all home sales were in the million- dollar category.

With San Diego Counties amazing price appreciation, the incredible climate, and the constraints on real estate development... it is this real estate professionals opinion that San Diego County will soon have many zip codes with nothing buy $1,000,000+ home sales.
