In spring 2026 the median time on market averaged about 94 days, 9 days less than in spring 2019 (103 days).

Working Santa Cruz County FSBO leads
- Use the 116-day mark. Half of the Santa Cruz County homes that sold in May 2026 had been listed 116 days or less, so an FSBO still for sale after that is likely stalling.
- Mind the equity. Prices are about 11% below their January 2023 peak, so owners who bought around 2023 may owe close to what the home is worth; check the purchase date in county records before suggesting a price cut.
- Offer certainty. Buyers have 6.4 months of supply to choose from, so a fair cash offer with a quick closing appeals to owners facing a long wait.
- Bring the numbers. On a $275,000 home, each 1% of commission is about $2,750, the money most FSBO owners are trying to keep, so a net-sheet comparison lands better than a pitch.
- Stay compliant and verify. Stop contacting any owner who says "no agents" or "no investors", confirm ownership and liens in Santa Cruz County records before an offer, and add skip tracing for records without a phone number.
