Bressi Ranch Home Prices Through September 2026: 1% Under Last Year
- Bressi Ranch homes sold for a median $1.93M from January to September 2026, on 15 sales, against $1.94M on 20 sales in the same months of 2025 (-1%).
- Single family homes sold for a median $713 a square foot on 11 sales, against $736 on 14 (-3%). With this few sales their median sale ($2.37M, against $2M) tracks the size of the homes that sold, so I read price per foot.
- 15 sales, a small sample: Against 20 in 2025. A single sale moves a median this small, so ask me for the homes behind it.
How I measured this
These are closed sales reported to CRMLS in the City of Carlsbad's Bressi Ranch neighborhood: houses, condos, townhomes and two to four unit buildings, with single family homes also shown on their own. The window is January to September 2026, a complete stretch of months, compared with the same months of 2025. I lead with that window rather than one month, because a single month moves on which homes happened to close. A change is shown only when both years have at least 10 sales.
Bressi Ranch is defined by the City of Carlsbad's own neighborhood boundary: every sale on one of its 924 parcels counts, whatever the listing calls it. With 15 sales this year it is a small market, so one or two homes move a median, and I say so wherever it matters. The long view starts in 2020, because CRMLS carried San Diego thinly before mid 2020.

Full years, except 2026, which covers January to September. The 2025 row is the whole year. The comparison at the top uses January to September 2025: $1.94M for all homes and $2M for single family ($736 a square foot).
What it means
- Condos joined in 2021. Bressi Ranch's condos and townhomes on Colt Place were built in 2019 and 2020, so the all homes median includes them from 2021.
- Price per sq ft -7%. The median and the price per foot agree on the direction.
- 11 sales, a small sample. Against 14 in 2025. A single sale moves a median this small, so ask me for the homes behind it.
- For sellers: buyers here compare your home with the latest sales on your own street and floor plan, not the neighborhood median. Price from those.
- For buyers: 60% of homes sold at or over asking and the median home sold in 9 days, so the well priced ones still move fast.
