Sunnyvale has gone through another quarter without any major hiccups, showing improvements from a year ago. The median sales price has been steadily increasing from its recovery in early 2009, and is equivalent to 2006 prices. Average days on market have also dropped to 41 days, down from 77 days in the first quarter of 2009, though it has yet to reach the unusually low 23 days that occurred in the second quarter of 2006.

Lastly, the sales price to listing price ratio is hovering around 100%, meaning sellers are pricing homes at prices buyers expect to pay — neither a strong seller’s market as in 2007, nor a buyer’s market as in 2009.
