The Willow Glen real estate market entered June 2026 in a state of compressed supply and sustained buyer demand that is driving the most competitive conditions since early 2022. With days-on-market collapsing to a median of eight days, sellers are again fielding multiple offers within the first weekend — and buyers who hesitate are consistently losing out.
Why 8 Days on Market Matters More Than the Price
A median sale price of $1.08M tells you where the market settled — but DOM of eight days tells you how it got there. When homes clear in under two weeks, buyers have no time to conduct leisurely tours, coordinate financing contingencies, or negotiate from a position of patience. The DOM figure is the real urgency signal.
Three properties that closed in the last 30 days illustrate the pattern cleanly: 2847 Willow Glen Dr — $1.08M · 3bd/2ba received six offers in five days. 88 Naglee Ave — $1.34M · 4bd/3.5ba went pending on day four with an offer $87K over ask. Even 1203 Shasta Ave — $898K · 2bd/1ba, priced under the median to attract first-time buyers, closed above list with no contingencies.
Inventory: 22% Month-Over-Month Decline
Available active listings in Willow Glen fell from 31 to 24 between May 1 and June 1 — a 22.6% contraction that outpaces the broader Santa Clara County trend of 14% over the same period. This neighborhood-specific tightening is driven partly by homeowners who locked in sub-3% mortgages between 2020–2022 and have no financial incentive to sell into a higher-rate environment.
