SAN DIEGO (FOX 5/KUSI) — It may have gotten a little easier to buy a home in the San Diego market, according to a new report by Realtor.com.

The inventory of homes for sale increased in all 50 of the nation’s largest metros compared with last year, but San Diego was also among the top three that saw the most growth as of last month.

However, although the median listing price for homes in the region fell compared to last year, the price per square foot has increased by just over one percent.

The housing market is also nowhere near its pre-pandemic condition. The median listing price in August for a home in the San Diego-Chula Vista-Carlsbad market was almost 41% higher than the same time in 2019, according to Realtor.com.

The other 49 metros on the list had a similar story last month. The median price in Milwaukee, Wis., Philadelphia, Penn. and Cleveland, Ohio saw the biggest increases from 2019’s numbers.
