In this episode of the Kern County Real Estate Review, Laurie McCarty breaks down what’s really happening in the Bakersfield housing market and answers the question many buyers and sellers are asking right now: Is now the time to buy a home?
Laurie and Adlai discuss the latest real estate market trends in Bakersfield and Kern County, including rising buyer activity, limited inventory, and how quickly homes are selling. Laurie shares new local data showing homes are selling faster than they were this time last year and explains what that means for both buyers and sellers navigating today’s market.
They also take a closer look at mortgage rates and why they recently jumped back above 6%, including how global events can impact the housing market right here in Bakersfield. If you’re wondering whether rising interest rates should affect your decision to buy or sell, this conversation provides helpful context and practical advice.
As part of the show’s monthly Open House, Open Mic special, Laurie also speaks directly with local real estate agents about several open houses happening across Kern County, giving listeners a preview of homes they can tour this weekend. From spacious family homes to properties with unique features like workshops, RV parking, and private ADUs, there are options for a wide range of buyers.
Plus, Laurie highlights this week’s Home of the Week—a stunning custom estate in Kernville, California, set on five scenic acres with sweeping lake and mountain views, a dramatic living room with floor-to-ceiling windows, a chef’s kitchen, and an impressive seven-car garage.
Whether you’re buying your first home, thinking about selling, relocating to Bakersfield, or simply keeping an eye on the market, this episode provides valuable insight into what’s happening in Kern County real estate right now.
