The first half of 2026 has been a record-setting year for the Amy McCafferty Team. In just six months, we've closed more than 40 transactions and surpassed $152 million in sales volume across Los Gatos, Monte Sereno, and the greater Silicon Valley.
These transactions range from ~$1 million to $11 million, reflecting the breadth of our experience across Silicon Valley's luxury and traditional housing markets. From landmark Los Gatos estates and record-breaking Monte Sereno sales to family homes throughout the South Bay, we've had the privilege of representing a wide variety of properties in some of the region's most sought-after neighborhoods.
These results build on Amy McCafferty's recognition by RealTrends as the #1 Individual Real Estate Agent in Los Gatos & Monte Sereno by sales volume, reflecting a consistent track record of market leadership and exceptional representation throughout Silicon Valley.
Outstanding Results for Los Gatos and Silicon Valley Home Sellers
The foundation for every successful sale is established long before a home reaches the market. Careful preparation, elevated presentation, comprehensive marketing, and skilled negotiation continued to deliver exceptional outcomes for our sellers during the first half of 2026.
Our 2026 listings sold for an average of approximately $185,000 over asking price while averaging just 11 days on market. More than half went under contract within the first week, and two sold for more than $1 million above their list price.
While favorable market conditions certainly contributed, our approach to home presentation, pricing, marketing, and negotiation played an equally important role. Every home received a customized strategy designed to maximize buyer interest and achieve the strongest possible outcome for our clients.
Market Trends Across Los Gatos & Monte Sereno Real Estate in 2026
The first half of 2026 reinforced a trend we've continued to see across the Los Gatos, Monte Sereno, Saratoga, and Silicon Valley real estate markets: well-prepared, professionally presented homes continue to attract strong buyer interest despite limited inventory. While sellers who invest in careful preparation, strategic pricing, and comprehensive marketing continue to achieve exceptional results, buyers face intense competition, making experienced representation, local market knowledge, and skilled negotiation more important than ever.
Despite these market conditions, we successfully helped 13 buyers secure homes that aligned with their lifestyle, priorities, and long-term goals. Every successful purchase required a well-crafted strategy, deep local market knowledge, and experienced negotiation to help our clients compete with confidence.
More Than Sales Volume
Surpassing $152 million in sales volume is an exciting milestone, but what means the most to us is the trust our clients place in our team.
Behind every transaction is a family beginning a new chapter, a homeowner maximizing the value of a significant investment, or a buyer finding the right place to call home. Those moments, and the lasting relationships built along the way, are what matter most to us.
As we look ahead to the second half of 2026, we're excited to continue helping buyers and sellers navigate the Los Gatos, Monte Sereno, Saratoga, and Silicon Valley real estate markets with the same careful preparation, innovative marketing, and experienced negotiation that have guided our approach for decades.
