Mission Hills is one of the most sought-after neighborhoods in San Diego. Centrally located, it’s adjacent to the much-coveted Balboa Park and boasts all the attributes that make the area such a draw for locals and tourists alike—gorgeous, old-time architecture; views of the city, and plenty of venues for recreation.
What’s it like living in Mission Hills?
Mission Hills residents enjoy close proximity to Hillcrest, Mission Valley, and Old Town, meaning if you live here, you’ll be within walking distance of many popular dining establishments, shops, and museums. It’s a popular neighborhood for those seeking a slower pace—bike rides, strolls in the park, and live music under the stars. Being located so close to the major freeways, it’s a great spot to settle if you’re seeking a convenient commute to area institutions.
What types of homes can you find in Mission Hills?
Many of the homes in this neighborhood were built near the turn of the 20th century, around the time the community was officially established in 1908. More recently-built homes evoke the area’s Spanish and Mediterranean-style architecture with a few more resembling a more minimal, contemporary design. The Median Sale Price is about $1.3M and most homes have between two to four bedrooms and range between 1,300 and 3,000 square feet.
What’s selling in Mission Hills?
During the past three months, Mission Hills homes that sell quickly tend to be under $1.5M—with condos under $750,000 selling the fastest. Larger homes with more than two bedrooms tend to spend twice the time on the market than their smaller counterparts. Additionally, older homes that are larger and priced above $1.5M tend to require a price reduction before their listing goes into pending status.
Overall, listed Mission Hills homes have a median of 18 Days on Market and prices are down .26% year-over-year. With the average home selling for about 1% below the list price, Mission Hills is still a very competitive market, but it’s beginning to shift toward a market that favors buyers over sellers.
