Blog > Where Gilroy Homes Sell Over Asking: By Price Range and Size (2026)
Do Gilroy homes still sell over asking? In the last 12 months, the typical Gilroy house closed at asking, and 44% sold for more than their list price. The year before, the typical house also closed at asking, and 45% sold over. It also depends on the price and the size: over the last 24 months, houses at $1M–$1.25M came in highest against asking (typical sale at asking, 50% over), and houses at $1.75M–$2M lowest (2.1% under asking, 11% over).

What it means for pricing
- Over asking isn’t the same as overpaying. When a home is listed below the price it’s expected to reach, a sale over asking can still be at market value; when it’s listed high, a sale under asking can be too.
- Read the range you’re in. Houses at $1M–$1.25M and houses at $1.75M–$2M face different buyers and different competition.
- Buyers: use the “typical sale” for your range and size as a starting point, then look at the last few sales on the street.
- Sellers: strategy matters as much as the number. See how much over asking homes sell for and our over-asking tool.

How we counted
Closed sales reported to the MLS and read through the IDX feeds that power our home search, one record per sale with a usable living area and map position, the same rules as our city price posts. Houses are MLS property type “single family home”; condos include townhomes. Sale price is compared with the final list price, so a home that was cut before selling is measured against its last price. Price and size ranges use the last 24 months (October 28, 2024 to October 27, 2026); the city figures use the last 12 months (October 28, 2025 to October 27, 2026) and the 12 months before. Past sales aren’t a forecast or the value of any one home, and nothing here is financial, tax or legal advice.
