Market Update The Mark & Al Team October 20, 2025
As we move into the final quarter of 2025, the real estate market continues to show signs of balance after several years of rapid shifts. Whether you're planning to buy, sell, or invest, understanding the current market landscape can help you make informed decisions.
Home values across Southern California have remained relatively stable through the fall season. After years of steep price increases, we’re now seeing more moderate appreciation—a healthy sign that the market is finding equilibrium.
Well-presented homes priced competitively are still drawing strong interest, while overpricing can lead to longer days on market.
Mortgage rates have shown slight fluctuations this fall, generally staying within the 6–7% range depending on loan type and credit profile. These minor changes can significantly affect monthly payments and overall affordability.
For buyers, locking in a rate sooner rather than later may help avoid future increases. For sellers, understanding how rates affect buyer demand is key when setting expectations.
Inventory has slowly increased compared to earlier this year, giving buyers more choices. However, well-priced homes in desirable neighborhoods are still selling quickly—often with multiple offers.
For sellers, this means presentation and pricing strategy remain critical to stand out in a more balanced market.
Experts predict that the housing market will remain steady heading into 2026, supported by continued job growth, manageable inflation, and pent-up buyer demand.
Buyers should focus on long-term goals rather than waiting for “perfect” conditions. Sellers can benefit from motivated buyers who want to secure a home before the new year.
The Fall 2025 market offers opportunities on both sides of the transaction. Whether you’re buying, selling, or exploring investment possibilities, understanding the data—and partnering with a local professional—can make all the difference in achieving your real estate goals.
Stay up to date on the latest real estate trends.
