Hey Union City! Join Amrit Singh and Eddie Oberoi for your December 2025 market update and year-end recap. The headline for this year? The market stayed far steadier than most people realized. Despite perceptions of a slowdown, the data shows that demand in Union City never truly went away; buyers just became more strategic, waiting in the wings for the right properties to hit the market.
Union City Market Snapshot
Here is a look at the numbers defining our local market right now (November data):
- Active Listings: 35
- Homes Pending: 18
- Homes Sold (Nov): 22
Year-End Recap: Remarkable Stability
Matching Last Year Step-for-Step
On a bigger scale, Union City has demonstrated incredible consistency. In 2025, we saw 318 homes sold year-to-date, compared to 325 homes sold during the same period in 2024. This near-identical performance tells us something crucial: demand is persistent. When well-presented homes hit the market, buyers move quickly.
The "Perfect Middle Ground"
Why does Union City remain so resilient? It continues to offer the perfect middle ground for Bay Area buyers:
- Relative Affordability: Especially compared to neighboring cities.
- Decent Schools: Attracting families looking for long-term roots.
- Commute Connectivity: Easy access in multiple directions for working professionals.
Looking Ahead to 2026: Precision Matters
The End of "Throwing a Number on the Wall"
If 2025 taught us anything, it's that this has become a market where precision matters. The homes that succeeded were staged properly, showed well, and had a solid pricing strategy. As we head into 2026, we don't expect chaos or a crash, but we do expect more focus.
- Buyers are Picky: They are willing to wait for the right house.
- Sellers Must Be Strategic: The old days of just throwing a high number on the wall and watching it stick are gone.
With interest rates gradually stabilizing and incentive policies still encouraging renovations and investment, markets like Union City should remain surprisingly competitive throughout 2026.
