Busting the November Myth

Homes Absolutely Do Sell in November

People keep asking: do homes even sell during the month of November? They absolutely do. Last November, for instance, 57 homes sold in Santa Clara. That tells you homes do sell. And this year, we're already seeing strong activity. Right now, there are 84 active listings with only 28 being single family homes, 36 pending, and 60 homes sold in October. So no, the market doesn't shut down in November.

The November Advantage

Fewer listings means less competition for sellers. That's an advantage, and the right deal still wins. The myth that November is dead is totally busted. Even with headlines about politics and rates, buyers move fast when they see a good home or a rate drop. That's what's driving Santa Clara right now.

Strategic Advice for Buyers and Sellers

For Sellers: If Your Home Is Ready Now, Don't Wait

Sellers often ask: if your home is ready now, should you wait? The answer is no. With fewer listings creating less competition and motivated buyers actively searching, November presents a strategic window to list your property. Don't wait for the spring rush when competition increases.

For Buyers: Don't Wait for the January Crowd

Buyers shouldn't wait for the January crowd. Real estate is still very real in November. As the old saying goes, you don't wait to buy real estate, you buy real estate and wait. With active inventory, pending sales, and buyers moving quickly on good opportunities, November is a time for action, not hesitation.

What Drives Santa Clara Right Now

Despite headlines about politics and rates, buyers in Santa Clara move fast when they see a good home or a rate drop. The fundamentals remain strong: limited single family home inventory (only 28 active listings), consistent sales activity (60 homes sold in October), and motivated participants on both sides of transactions. This combination creates opportunities for those ready to act.

Final Thoughts

The Santa Clara housing market in November 2025 proves that the fall season is far from dead. With 84 active listings, 36 pending, and 60 homes sold in October, the market continues to demonstrate consistent activity. The November myth has been busted—homes sell, deals close, and opportunities exist for both buyers and sellers who are ready to act.
