美國總統川普確診新冠肺炎，再為後疫情時代投下震撼彈。其中，科技重鎮矽谷的房市表現，自3月開始宣布就地避難（Shelter-in-place）開始，房價竟不減反增。區域房市專家觀察，主因是供給量少，以及在低利率、多數人在家工作的高買房需求背景下，助長房價走勢。9月Santa Clara County 平均成交房價，創下2020年新高點約151萬8862美元。
平均房價走勢
根據MLS在10月1日的統計最新數據顯示，在Santa Clara County 平均房價不畏疫情影響，自4月平均房價為140萬9102美元一路攀升，7月創下次高點為150.5萬美元，直到9月又創下最新高點151.8萬美元。在平均成交中位數方面，4月為121.8萬美元，8月高點為125萬美元，9月最新數據則為123.1萬美元。
整個Santa Clara County房屋單月銷售總額也從3月的13.7億美元、到7月創下新高點為21.67億美元，9月最新數據則是21.28億美元。但若比較整體銷售數字，今年1~9月平均每月成交金額為14.8億美元，相較去年15.32億美元，顯見因為疫情，房屋交易量仍有縮水。
矽谷房地產經紀人簡明葳表示，最近區域搶房風潮自Shelter-in-place以來有增無減，主要是因為疫情的關係，多數人在家上課上班，不再需要通勤，購屋者對於空間與格局的要求，已經超過交通便利。通勤時間稍長的通勤房，成為新寵，像是Santa Teresa、Berryessa等，今年漲幅非常明顯，而超過Santa Clara County之外的Fremont、Dublin 與Pleasanton等，也是搶房熱區。
客戶買房需求也出現了一些變化，以往覺得3房就夠，現在希望4房以上，才能居家辦公、上遠距課使用；因為在家煮食的機會變多，對於廚房的要求提高；有超大車庫能改裝為健身房；而疫情增加改建房子的難度，Move In Ready的屋況更為加分。
