Thank you for all the info. I have been following the market for about the past year. When the asking prices started going up I thought that it may not be anything significant, except the time of year, but I thought that I would inquire with others to see if you also agreed. Thanks again.

I also use to live in the 92117 zip and noticed a lot of houses being taken off the market and not selling around August. Also, one of our friends had to sell their house quickly, listed below market, and the neighbors were not too happy that they were not keeping their price up with theirs. Our friends still had to wait a few months for an offer when their asking price was well below comps in the neighborhood.
