Inventory is Up-Here's the Data 

According to Realtor.com, active listings rose 31.5% year–over-year, reaching 1.04 million homes-highest since July 2020. 

Months of supply increased to 4.4 in April (up from 4.0 a year ago), pushing us toward a more balanced market (source: NAR). 

Reports on Housing reports that 25% of Orange County listings had price reductions. 

What This Means for You 

Buyers: You’re in the driver’s seat.  With more motivated sellers and greater inventory, now may be a great time to find your ideal home at a better price. 

Sellers: Homes are still selling but only when priced right from day one.  Overpriced listings are sitting longer and facing cuts.  A smart pricing and marketing strategy makes all the difference. 

And yes, interest rates are still high-but that’s exactly why negotiating seller-paid buy-downs and credits is more valuable than ever.
