Coastal Orange County Market Report
While Orange County's overall market is experiencing a typical fall slowdown, Coastal Orange County is defying the trend. With mortgage rates at 6.19%, the lowest in over a year, and inventory tightening across Newport Beach, Corona del Mar, Laguna Beach, Laguna Niguel, and Dana Point, buyer demand is intensifying. Laguna Niguel is leading the charge with homes selling in just 36 days on average, while well-prepared listings across all coastal communities are capturing multiple offers and achieving 99-100%+ of asking price.
This window of opportunity won't last. Spring typically brings a surge of both buyers and sellers, creating the competitive frenzy that erases negotiating leverage. Whether you're a buyer who can now afford $115,000 more in purchasing power compared to 7% rates, or a seller positioning to capture serious year-end buyers, the data shows that acting now means avoiding the multiple-offer scenarios and pricing pressures that emerge in just 60-90 days.
