Gilroy market considerations

The Gilroy market is influenced by South Santa Clara County location, commute patterns, Highway 101 access, older residential neighborhoods, newer subdivision development, commercial corridor influence, rural-residential and agricultural edges, school appeal, park adjacency, property condition, lot utility, and buyer demand from the broader Silicon Valley market. A date of death appraisal in Gilroy may require careful comparable sale selection because city residential properties, newer subdivisions, older homes, and rural-edge properties may not all compete within the same buyer pool.

  • Relevant comparable sales
  • Unusual collateral characteristics
