Nobody knows, and anyone who tells you for certain is guessing. What the record shows right now: Suisun City’s median sale price was $534,646 in August 2026, up 0.9% from a year earlier, while the Solano County median for single-family homes fell 7.3% (Redfin, Suisun City housing market page, checked September 24, 2026; C.A.R., August 2026 report, checked September 25, 2026).

So Suisun City has held about flat while the county slipped, though the two sources measure different home mixes. Here’s what the forecasters said, how that played out, and the local signals worth watching.

What did forecasters say about 2026?

The main statewide forecast called for a modest gain. C.A.R., the statewide real estate trade association, said on September 17, 2025 that California’s median home price would rise 3.6% to $905,000 in 2026, with the 30-year fixed mortgage rate averaging 6.0% (C.A.R., 2026 California Housing Market Forecast, checked September 25, 2026).

That’s a forecast for all of California. C.A.R. does not publish one for Suisun City.

How has that forecast held up so far?

Behind it so far, though the forecast is a full-year average and August is one month. By August 2026, C.A.R. reported the statewide median for existing single-family homes at $901,420, up just 0.1% from a year earlier, and the 30-year fixed rate averaging 6.67% (C.A.R., August 2026 home sales and price report, September 16, 2026).

That gap is the point. Careful, well-funded forecasts miss, especially on rates. Treat any forecast as one input, not a plan.

What is happening in Suisun City itself?

A market that’s still moving. Redfin’s August 2026 numbers for Suisun City (checked September 24, 2026):

  • Median sale price: $534,646, up 0.9% year over year.
  • Sold above list: 55.3% of homes.
  • Sale-to-list price: 100.4%.
  • Homes with a price drop: 21.4%.
  • Median days on market: 35, on 69 sales.

With that few sales, one month can swing. Look at several months in a row before you read a trend into it.

What local changes could move Suisun City prices?

Three things are worth watching. None of them comes with a known outcome.

  1. New homes. Under construction as of August 2026: 20 apartments at 400 Main Street (Awanta), 16 houses at Lotz Residences, 97 affordable apartments at Almond Gardens on Almond Street and 31 units at McCoy Creek. Under review: Olive Tree Ranch, 74 single-family lots between Humphrey Drive and Olive Avenue (Press Democrat, August 5, 2026). New supply gives buyers more choices; how much it moves resale prices, nobody can say.
  2. The California Forever annexation application. In June 2025 the City Council approved an agreement for California Forever to pay for research on annexing land east of town, and the city’s November 12, 2025 environmental notice describes a 22,873 acre annexation (City of Suisun City, Notice of Preparation). California Forever pays $400,000 up front and $10 million if the annexation is adopted and approved by Solano LAFCO (CBS Sacramento, June 11, 2025). Whether it happens, and what it would do to values, is unknown. Watch City Council and LAFCO agendas.
  3. Flood and sea level rise planning. A BCDC planning manager told KQED that with two feet of sea level rise, flooding by 2050 could reach areas south of Highway 12 (KQED, August 18, 2025, updated November 17, 2025). Flood insurance costs and any future levee or shoreline projects could affect what buyers will pay on some streets.

What signals should I watch month to month?

The ones that move before prices do:

  • Price drops. 21.4% in August 2026. If that climbs, sellers are chasing buyers.
  • Days on market. 35 in August. Longer waits mean more room to negotiate.
  • Share sold over list. 55.3% in August. When that falls, buyers have the upper hand.
  • Mortgage rates. They cap what buyers can pay each month.

All four update monthly on Redfin’s Suisun City page and in C.A.R.’s monthly reports.

Should I wait for prices to drop before I buy or sell?

Waiting is a bet, and you might lose it. Make the call on your own numbers instead. Buyers: the payment you can carry, including flood insurance if the home needs it, and how long you’ll stay. Sellers: what you need to net and when you need to move. Then compare with recent sales of homes like yours.

Questions people also ask

Is the Suisun City housing market going to crash?

We don’t predict prices, and no one can promise a direction. What we can show you: Redfin reports a Suisun City median of $534,646 in August 2026, up 0.9% from a year earlier, with 55.3% of homes selling above list. Those August numbers do not show a falling market. Watch price drops and days on market for early signs of change.

What is the C.A.R. forecast for 2026?

On September 17, 2025, C.A.R. forecast that California’s median home price would rise 3.6% to $905,000 in 2026, with 30-year rates averaging 6.0%. Its August 2026 report showed a statewide median of $901,420, up 0.1%, and rates averaging 6.67%. It is a statewide forecast; C.A.R. does not publish one for Suisun City.

Will California Forever raise home prices in Suisun City?

Nobody knows. In June 2025 the City Council approved an agreement for California Forever to fund research on annexing up to about 22,000 acres, per CBS Sacramento, June 11, 2025. The annexation would still need council adoption and Solano LAFCO approval. Until there is a decision, any claim about its effect on home values is a guess.

Are Solano County home prices dropping?

C.A.R. reported a Solano County median of $575,000 for existing single-family homes in August 2026, down 7.3% from $620,000 a year earlier, with sales up 12.5%. Suisun City’s all-types median from Redfin was up 0.9% over the same span. The sources measure different home mixes, so compare the direction, not the dollars.
