If you're a realtor working in Walnut Creek, chances are your Google search history is a mix of “homes for sale near me,” “best open house strategies,” and “is there a new coffee shop downtown yet?” And honestly, that tracks.
Walnut Creek is one of the most dynamic markets in the Bay Area—equal parts suburban calm and downtown energy. It’s a place where buyers want walkable neighborhoods and backyard space, where listings can sit for months or fly off the market in days, and where agents are constantly adapting to keep up.
Here’s what we’re noticing: the best-performing agents here are the ones who know how to blend local knowledge, market data, and strong visuals into a smart marketing strategy. So, whether you're brand new to Walnut Creek or you’ve had your name on signs for years, here’s what your fellow agents are searching (and what you should be thinking about too).
💹 What’s Actually Happening in the Walnut Creek Market?
Let’s talk numbers. As of March 2025, Walnut Creek's median listing price was around $783K, down 15% from last year. But don’t let that scare you—inventory is still moving, and buyers are watching closely.
The average home sits for about 52 days, which is nearly half the time it took a year ago. This means good marketing matters more than ever. You’ve got a small window to make a big impression.
