There are currently six residential properties in excess of $1 million in escrow in the Manteca area.

It reflects a steady, consistent movement of residential properties above $1 million despite what some experts describe as a “turbulent” economic situation for home buyers.

There are also five resale homes between $800,000 and $1 million within Manteca’s city limits with pending offers.

That is on top of a brisk new home market where builders have 10 new homes in escrow above $800,000 with the highest being $896,000.

The median home sale price of houses that close escrow is now at $605,000. That reflects a 1.5 percent increase in the past 12 months.

If you remove mobile homes and condos, the two lowest priced resale homes now in escrow are in central Manteca.

*One is a two bedroom, one bathroom home with 840 square feet on a 5,000-square-foot lot at 417 Acacia Ave. that has gone pending at $358,000.

*The other is a three bedroom, one bathroom home with 977 square feet on a 2,500-square-foot lot at 306 S. Veach Street.
