Facebook expands to Fremont – Big Opportunities in Alameda County
Facebook and other Tech Companies expanding into Alameda County, making it second only to Santa Clara county for 2019 real estate to date.
Breakdown: Let’s take a look at which counties in the Bay area are currently the most active.
Reviewing the charts, it’s pretty clear that Alameda and Santa Clara Counties are seeing the most activity this year.
There’s a huge difference between Santa Clara and San Mateo Counties and this is, in part, because San Jose covers such a large area. With Facebook and other Tech companies moving to Fremont, the market in that part of Alameda County is seen as a huge opportunity; this is reflected in how quickly houses in Fremont, Newark, and Union City are moving. Fremont has long had a strong real estate presence and we’re now seeing nearby Newark and Union City starting to be more active; this is in part due to their proximity to the Dumbarton Bridge and, in the news, the possibility of a Facebook funded train which could one day cross the Bay and make life easier for commuters! Commute issues aside, Alameda County has a lot to offer as companies provide more flexible hours and working remotely is more common.
