Amrit’s take
Fewer sellers, fewer buyers
Pleasanton sales fell 21% this year, and listings fell too: this year’s peak was 100 houses for sale in June, down from 130 in May 2025. Both sides of the market pulled back, so prices barely moved: the median is down 2% and price per square foot is down 3%.
Asking price is the price
Fremont houses sold for 103.8% of asking on average this year and Milpitas 104.7%. In Pleasanton it was 99.9%. If you’re coming from Fremont or Milpitas, expect a different negotiation.
Slower this fall
The median house that sold in September was on the market 29 days, the slowest month in two years, and sold for 97.9% of asking on average. July and August were slow too, at 26 and 19 days.
More house for the money
Pleasanton houses sold for $829 a square foot this year vs $1,061 in Fremont. The medians were almost the same, $1.68M and $1.70M, so the typical Pleasanton buyer got more house for the money.
