Tragedy Strikes Ben Lomond
The community has been shook by the recent events in Ben Lomond. The community was terrorized by a dangerous person resulting in a community reeling, officers injured, and a sheriff murdered.

Santa Cruz County Real Estate in Summary
Sources: The Santa Cruz Association of Realtors and MLSlistings, INC reflecting all of Santa Cruz County Residential detached for the Month of May2020.
County Breakdown
Time for a monthly synopsis of the local real estate market! While it is important to look at the month as a whole, it's key to keep perspective on a smaller scale as well. At the end of this month’s update I have included a closer look, a comparison week by week.
Last month’s numbers are in and the median
home sale price (single family residential detached) for all of Santa Cruz County per the MLS ( multiple listing service) for April was $850,000, down from $949,500 in April . The Condo/Townhome median sale price was $616,500, on par for April . Homes on average were selling for 98.8% of the listed price(compared to 97.2% of the “original listed price”) and the median days to receive an accepted offer for the county was 0 days ( keep in mind though, days on market for listings were halted by the multiple listing service – which has since been lifted ). The real estate inventory was 3.3 months for the county, still quite low.
Area Breakdowns

I have included the median home sale price, months of inventory, median days to sell, the sale price to list price ratio and the average price per square foot broken down into the different areas in the county (including all single family residential detached sales) .
