WEST RIVERSIDE COUNTY Residential

• Although sales volumes are down in a majority of West Riverside County cities , median sales prices remain high and are showing relatively significant gains in multiple cities even with the resale market continuing to be at nearly historic lows as homeowners cling on to pre-interest rate hike pricing . New home construction is supplying much of Riverside County ’ s inventory .
• Winchester is “ Ground Zero ” for new home development in the US , as the influx of new home development in the area has resulted in a 21 % increase in sales volume compared to this time last year , far outpacing any other city in the region . Although median sales price has dropped by 2 %, this is expected with so many new homes being delivered by various different builders .
• Finished lot values are up across the board , highlighting the demand for shovel ready lots from home builders . Builders that have previously stayed away from the leg work of entitlement heavy projects are now pursuing such opportunities to meet their internal quotas .
• While interest rates appear to be having a minimal effect on market pricing for new singlefamily homes , multi-family development has been hit hard due to inflation in development costs and expensive financing .
• Cities in closer proximity to Orange and San Diego Counties continue to have the highest demand from developers and builders . However , infill land is in short supply in these areas and will emphasize the need for creativity and some level of flexibility from local , regional , and state governing bodies .
• As highlighted in our Economic Outlook section , the challenges facing the California housing market are all relevant to the West Riverside County region and will need to be addressed in attempt to make progress towards the state and region-wide housing shortage .
