Frequently asked questions about Gilroy

Is now a good time to buy in Gilroy?

Gilroy currently leans toward buyers. Homes are sitting longer and sellers are more open to negotiation. It is a good time to take your time, request contingencies, and consider offering below asking.

How do Gilroy home prices compare to the Bay Area average?

At $1.20M, Gilroy's median sits about 35% below the Bay Area average of $1.85M. That average is skewed high by ultra-premium peninsula enclaves like Atherton and Woodside, so a more useful frame is that Gilroy is one of the more accessible corners of the Bay Area.
