Methodology and sources

How every figure on this page is produced. The same definitions apply to every city report and the Santa Clara County report.

Show all 19 definitions
ItemDefinition
SourceClosed sales, active listings, and listings under contract reported to MLSListings Inc. Statistics are calculated by Aegis Luxury Real Estate from that data.
Geographic coverageA sale is counted in Los Altos Hills when the MLSListings Inc. city field for the property is Los Altos Hills and the property is in Santa Clara County.
Property typesSingle family homes, townhomes, and condos, as classified by MLSListings Inc. Figures marked all property types combine the three.
MedianThe middle value when every closed sale in the period is ranked, calculated from individual sales.
AverageThe total of all values in the period divided by the number of closed sales.
Days on marketThe MLS days on market field reported for each closed sale. Sales without that field are left out of the days on market figures.
Reporting weekWeeks run Monday through Sunday. The page updates every Monday and covers the week that ended the day before.
Trailing 13 weeksThe 13 completed weeks ending with the latest reporting week. Medians, averages, ratios and counts for a period of weeks are calculated from the individual sales that closed inside those 13 weeks. This is the main window for the headline figures because a single week in one city holds too few sales for a stable median.
Active listingsListings on the market every Sunday: listed on or before that day and not yet closed, canceled, expired, withdrawn, or pending. Contingent listings, which have an accepted offer but remain on the market, are included. Months of supply is calculated from this count.
Pending salesListings under contract every Sunday: contract date on or before that day and not yet closed, whether pending or contingent. Contingent listings appear in both the active and the pending counts, so the two figures are not added together. Pending counts begin in September 2025.
Months of supplyActive listings on the latest Sunday divided by the average monthly closed sales over the prior 13 weeks.
Sale to list ratioAverage closing price divided by average final list price across closed sales in the period.
vs Last YearThe same weeks one year earlier: the 13 weeks ending on the matching Sunday of the prior year.
Year to dateJanuary 1 through the latest reporting week, compared with the same weeks of the prior year.
Last 52 weeksThe 52 completed weeks ending with the latest reporting week, compared with the 52 weeks before them.
County comparisonsCounty figures cover residential sales in the 15 incorporated cities of Santa Clara County; unincorporated areas are not included. County medians are calculated from every qualifying sale across the 15 incorporated cities, not from city medians. County averages and ratios are weighted by closed sales.
Historical coverageAnnual history runs from January 2017. Weekly active listing counts begin in January 2021, so inventory history starts there.
Update cadenceStatistics update every Monday and always cover the previous completed week. Listing data referenced in the MLS disclosure refreshes separately.
Small samplesWhen a period has fewer than 10 closed sales, the page shows the sale count and notes that medians and averages can move sharply. A single week in a city usually falls below 10, so weekly rows show the count of closed sales and the trailing 13 week figures; year to date and last 52 weeks figures are the steadier read.
Week ending October 4, 2026. Statistics cover the 13 weeks ending Sunday, October 4, 2026, and the week itself. Updated October 8, 2026 at 7:24 PM Pacific. Source: MLSListings Inc. Information deemed reliable but not guaranteed. Timothy Alston, Broker, DRE# 01328224, Aegis Luxury Real Estate. Market statistics update every Monday and always cover the previous completed week. Active listings and pending sales are counted every Sunday. Next update: Monday, October 12, 2026, with the week ending October 11.

I built this entire data platform because I believe buyers and sellers deserve transparent, current market intelligence, not guesswork. Every figure on every city page comes from the same MLS feed I use to advise my clients. The difference between a good deal and a great deal is knowing what the data says before you sit down at the table.
