OPPORTUNITY KNOCKS NOW!
For homeowners looking to sell in 2022, the window of opportunity is closing as inventory climbs, demand falls, and market times grow longer. The longer homeowners wait, the harder it will be to sell. The Orange County housing market already cooled substantially, and it will only continue from here.
So you’re ready to put your home on the market and to you, everything looks great. Unfortunately, much of the wear and tear on your home becomes unnoticeable when it is something you see everyday. While you may not think about the one light switch that doesn’t work or the chipping paint in the guest bedroom, now is the time to take a step back and look at your home with fresh eyes.

As a result, inventory has more than tripled so far in 2022, growing from 965 homes at the start of the year to 3,059 today. The Expected Market Time (the amount of time to open escrow) has increased from 20 days to 45 days. It is still a Hot Seller’s Market (less than 60-days), just not at an insane, instantaneous pace.
