Redfin, through May 2026
Zillow figures are as of July 2026 and refresh monthly. Redfin figures are through May 2026 — Redfin stopped publishing its public market trackers in June 2026, so those numbers are final, not current. Mortgage rates come from Freddie Mac via FRED and update weekly.
Bonsall, CA is a balanced market, based on 3.2 months of supply and homes selling in about 61 days. Under 4 months of supply tilts the market toward sellers: homes clear faster than they are replaced, so concessions are scarce.

Over the last three years the median sale price in Bonsall, CA rose 65.8%, from $1.04M to $1.72M. The live Zillow value series has fell 0.5% in the last 12 months, which is the more current read now that Redfin's series has stopped. 31.0% of Bonsall listings cut their asking price in the final Redfin month — a high share, and the clearest sign that list prices were running ahead of what buyers would pay. For prices to fall meaningfully from here, supply would have to keep building past 3.2 months while the sale-to-list ratio slips below its current 96.4%. Watch those two together — they move before the median does.

Priced off the typical home value of $1.02M at the current 6.66% 30-year fixed rate. These are principal and interest only — property taxes, homeowner's insurance, HOA dues and mortgage insurance are on top, and they vary enough by property that we will not guess them for you.

Zillow, July 2026 for the price · Freddie Mac via FRED, August 2026 for the rate
Lenders generally want housing costs under 28% of gross income. On the 20%-down payment of $5,257, that implies roughly $225,284 a year before you add taxes and insurance. The median household in Bonsall earns $110,316, about $114,968 short of that threshold — the typical local household needs a larger down payment, a co-borrower, or a home below the typical home value to fit the 28% rule. That puts the price-to-income ratio at 9.3x — well above the 3x that was historically considered affordable, which is why down payment size drives who can buy here.

Typical asking rent in Bonsall, CA is $3,816/mo, against a typical home value of $1.02M. That is a price-to-rent ratio of 22.3x, which means renting tends to be the cheaper monthly option unless you stay long enough for appreciation to close the gap. Compared head to head, 20% down puts principal and interest at $5,257 a month — $1,441 more than renting before taxes and insurance, so the ownership case here rests on equity and appreciation rather than monthly cash flow.

67.5% of occupied homes in Bonsall are owner-occupied, and the rest are rented — which is the share that decides how much of the local housing stock ever reaches the for-sale market. The Census self-reported median home value is $938,100 against Zillow's $1.02M typical value; the gap is normal — ACS asks owners what they think their home is worth, Zillow models transactions. Census median gross rent (all leases, including long-held ones) is $2,177/mo, below Zillow's $3,816/mo asking rent on new leases — the difference is roughly what a mover pays over a stayer.
