Online real estate database Zillow released a list of housing markets where properties sell for more than asking price this week.
Sacramento was named among the top six cities with over 41 percent of area homes selling for roughly $9,000, or 2.5 percent, over list price.
Limited supply and strong demand to reside in the City of Trees led to bidding wars in many cases.
San Jose, San Francisco, Seattle, Salt Lake City and Provo, Utah, ranked above Sacramento on the list.
