October 2026 Market Update
Based on September 2026 closed sales · Published October 2026
Team Ratcliffe's Take
A sharp one-month drop to $937,500, most likely from a lower-priced mix of sales.
The September median was $937,500, down 30.4% from $1,347,500 a year ago and down from $1,354,500 in August. We read this as a swing in which homes sold rather than a change in values.

Over the past 12 months the median has ranged from $747,500 in October 2025 to $1,675,000 in December 2025. Last October and November also dipped, to $747,500 and $865,000, before December jumped back to $1,675,000.
Across the first nine months of 2026 the monthly median averages about $1,374,000, down 0.5% from the same months of 2025. That is essentially even, and a better read on Scripps Ranch than any single month.
For Buyers
Don't read September as a price drop. A condo and a detached home here are different markets, so ask for recent sales of the type of home you want.
For Sellers
One low month does not change what your home is worth, but buyers do see these numbers. Be ready to show them the recent sales that support your price.
