Recent Real Estate News in Bonita

  • Bonita Typical Home Value Rose 2.8% Year Over Year to $1.15 million — Zillow's smoothed home-value index for Bonita rose about 2.8% over the past year to roughly $1.15 million. In context, the local market currently reads Neutral on Zillow's 0-100 temperature scale, active inventory is up about 5% from a year ago, and roughly 28% of listings have taken a price cut.
  • 30-Year Fixed Edges Up to 6.55% in Mid-July — Freddie Mac's weekly survey put the average 30-year fixed mortgage at 6.55% for the week of July 16, 2026, up from 6.49% a week earlier and 6.43% at the start of the month. Rates still sit below the 6.75% average of a year ago, so financing costs remain modestly friendlier than last summer even as purchase applications have softened.
  • San Diego County Inventory Thins While Prices Hold — San Diego County closed June with roughly 5,877 residential properties listed for sale, down from about 6,939 a year earlier, with detached inventory off sharply and attached supply essentially flat. The countywide median has hovered near the $1.0 million mark, and homes have continued to move in the low-20-day range, leaving a market that is better supplied than 2022-2023 but still short of a balanced six months.
