What the numbers say
- At September's pace, the 40 homes for sale would sell in about 1.3 months. That favors sellers: there are more buyers than homes. Good homes get offers fast, so buyers do best with a pre-approval in hand before they tour.
- The middle home sold for its full asking price or more.
- Homes are selling about as fast as in September 2025.
- A condo or townhome sold for a median of $528,000, about 63% less than a house at $1,435,000.
- The median house sold for $1,435,000. Orange County's 2026 loan limit is $1,249,125, and a loan above it is a jumbo loan.
