Fremont Real Estate Market Update: February 2026

Hope your day is going well so far. Most areas locally had less activity last month, which is fairly common for this time of year. One thing to keep in mind is that a January closing typically means the home was on the market sometime in December (sometimes even during the holiday period). Along with generally fewer homes available, it was also less common to see larger homes being sold. Next month will be telling as to how intense the spring hot season may get - whether it will be more relaxed this year or just as crazy as the last couple of spring seasons.

As always, please feel free to reach out if you have any questions, I'd be more than happy to do a thorough / personalized analysis beyond this data report. You can also check out my website for more resources & guides (www.joshuy.com).

Fremont - Quick takeaways (2/03/26): 📈

Jan 2026 prices - The typical Fremont home was selling for $1.74M last month. Although we have not seen an average in the $1.7Ms for quite some time (since Q4 2023), the better news is that the sold $ / sq ft figure shot up almost 10% to $1123 (first time over $1100 since May 2025). Upon a closer look, it appears the average size of the homes sold fell from 1885 sq ft in December to 1613 sq ft last month, showing not only a lower sample size, but also had the data skewed towards smaller sized homes. Number of Jan sales above $3M = 1, which was even lower than the activity over the last few months (vs 3 in Dec, 8 in Nov, 10 in Oct).
Price over asking % - Following the trend since 2022, the pace of the market has increased when comparing the numbers from December to January. This year is following the same path, as homes were typically selling for 3.6% last month (an increase from 1% in Dec). Around this time last year, homes were selling at an average of 8.1% over asking, which was followed up by a slightly slower Feb at 7.3%.
6 month change - Price over 6 months is down 16.1% from $2.07M. Since then, we have managed to break through the $2M barrier just once, while posting a few months in the $1.8Ms. Perhaps we can see $2M again soon with the Spring hot season coming up.
1 yr change - Year over year, price is down about 5.4% from $1.84M in Jan 2025. Fremont had 28 homes sold this past Jan, which was similarly low in 2025 (with 22 sales), but both much lower than 2024 (with 42 sales).

Have a great day!
