What These Numbers Mean for Templeton Buyers and Sellers
Templeton's housing market currently reads as balanced, a picture reinforced by the Housing Market Trends module above. With 2.7 months of supply and 21 active listings against 8 homes sold monthly, neither side holds runaway leverage. The median sale price sits at $859,431 and moved -6.3% year over year, while the median price per square foot measures $550.67. The clearest signal for negotiators is the spread of competitive indicators: only 20.8% of homes sold above list, 29.7% left the market within two weeks, and a notable 35.6% of listings recorded price drops. That combination points to room for buyers to negotiate rather than chase.
For buyers, the elevated price-drop share and an average sale-to-list ratio of 98.36% suggest that well-researched offers below asking are worth testing, particularly on homes that have lingered past the 43-day median. Homes priced ahead of the market are the ones cutting price, so patience is rewarded. For sellers, the takeaway is disciplined pricing from day one: with 25 new listings and 30 pending sales monthly, buyers have choices, and an ambitious list price frequently leads to a reduction rather than a bidding war.
This is a market where agent selection matters. Templeton has 397 licensed agents, a wide field in which pricing precision and negotiation strategy separate outcomes. Understanding how to position a home within the 93465 zip code, or how to structure a competitive yet protected offer, is where an experienced, data-informed agent adds measurable value for both sides of the transaction.

What to Look for in a Templeton Realtor
Choosing an agent in Templeton should go beyond name recognition and advertising spend. The more useful measure is verified transaction history, review depth, and demonstrated results in the specific price tiers and areas where you plan to buy or sell. Among the 397 licensed agents in the market, EffectiveAgents has ranked 40 based on measured performance rather than reputation alone. Lisa J Lewis at RE/MAX illustrates the pattern: 595 closed transactions, 120 client reviews, and $341.4M in all-time sales volume. That volume matters most in a market where 35.6% of listings take a price cut, because an agent who prices accurately from the start and negotiates from data helps sellers avoid reductions and helps buyers identify genuine value across the 93465 area. When comparing candidates, look for a consistent review pattern over time rather than a handful of recent five-star entries, and ask how each agent's sale-to-list results compare with the market average of 98.36%.
How We Rank Templeton Real Estate Agents
Our rankings are built from verified MLS transaction data, not advertising spend. For every agent we analyze more than fifteen performance signals, including sales volume in your city and zip code, recent and all-time transactions, days on market, negotiation results (how far above or below list price an agent's clients actually close), price-point fit, and verified reviews. The agents shown first are those whose verified results put them at the top of the Templeton market today.
Agents cannot pay for placement in these rankings. The underlying data refreshes as new closed transactions are reported, so rankings shift with real market performance. Learn how we rank agents.

Templeton Real Estate Agent FAQs
Who is the best real estate agent in Templeton, CA?
Lisa J Lewis at RE/MAX ranks among the top agents in Templeton, CA, with 595 closed transactions, 120 client reviews, and $341.4M in all-time sales volume. EffectiveAgents identifies top agents using verified performance data (closed transactions, sale-to-list results, and review history) rather than advertising visibility.

How were these Templeton real estate agents ranked?
Rankings are built from verified MLS transaction data. We analyze more than fifteen performance signals for every agent, including sales volume in your city and zip code, recent and all-time transactions, days on market, negotiation results, price-point fit, and verified reviews. Agents cannot pay for placement.
How many real estate agents are in Templeton?
Our data covers 397 real estate agents serving the Templeton area. The count represents agents with transaction activity recorded in our Templeton market data, not simply everyone holding a license.
What does the median sale price in Templeton mean for sellers?
Templeton's median sale price is $859,431 as of August 2026. Half of recent sales closed above that figure and half below. It is a useful baseline for understanding the market, but an experienced local agent will price your home against comparable recent sales in your neighborhood, not the citywide median.
How long does it take to sell a house in Templeton?
The median home in Templeton currently takes about 43 days to sell, reflecting a +9 days change in market time versus last year. Actual timelines vary with pricing accuracy, condition, and location within the 93465 zip code. Homes priced in line with recent comparable sales tend to sell faster, while ambitious pricing often leads to reductions given that 35.6% of local listings have cut price. With 2.7 months of supply, sellers who prepare and price carefully improve their odds of a timely, above-average result.
Does it cost anything to use EffectiveAgents?
No. EffectiveAgents is free for home buyers and sellers, with no obligation to work with any agent we match you with.
Do agents pay to be ranked or featured?
No. Agents cannot pay for placement anywhere in these rankings. Positions are earned from verified transaction performance only.
What commission do Templeton realtors charge?
Commissions are negotiable and vary by agent, service level, and transaction. There is no set rate, and recent industry changes have made commission structures more flexible than ever. Discuss the structure directly with your agent before signing a listing or buyer agreement.
Should I use a local Templeton agent or a national brand?
The individual agent matters more than the brand on the sign. Offices within the same national franchise vary widely in performance, and the agent you hire, not the logo, prices your home, negotiates your contract, and manages your closing. A strong local agent brings firsthand knowledge of Templeton neighborhoods, pricing patterns, and buyer activity. Compare agents on verified local results such as recent sales, days on market, and negotiation outcomes rather than name recognition.
What questions should I ask a Templeton realtor before hiring them?
Ask how many homes they have closed in Templeton in the past year, what their average sale-to-list ratio is, and how much of their business is in your neighborhood and price range. Ask how they will market your home or find you listings, and how often they will communicate. Strong agents answer with specifics. Verified transaction data is the fastest way to confirm what you hear.
