Greenbrae Real Estate – year-end 2025
Greenbrae Summary
The Greenbrae market in 2025 reflected a clear shift toward normalization after several years of heightened activity. Overall sales volume declined, signaling a more selective and measured market, yet home values remained notably resilient.
Despite fewer transactions, average sale prices held steady year over year, underscoring Greenbrae’s continuing appeal and limited supply. Buyers, however, became more price-conscious, as reflected in the decrease in average price per square foot. This suggests a market that is still strong, but less forgiving of overpricing.
Competitive intensity softened as the year progressed. A smaller share of homes sold over asking, fewer properties received multiple offers, and homes took longer to go into escrow—particularly in the second half of the year. These trends point to buyers exercising greater patience and discretion.
That said, demand was strong for homes that were well-prepared, strategically priced, and well-located, as buyers responded aggressively. In fact, the average premium paid over asking slightly increased in the latter half of the year, highlighting a continued willingness to compete for standout properties.
In summary, 2025 marked a transition to a more balanced market in Greenbrae—one where thoughtful pricing and presentation mattered more than ever. While the pace slowed, the fundamentals remained strong, setting the stage for a steady and predictable market moving into 2026.
