�� Orange County Housing Market Summary – June 2025
�� Inventory & Supply
Active Listings have increased slightly but remain well
below the historical norm (2017–2019)
Luxury Listings (now defined as $2 5M+) continue to grow, particularly in higher-end markets like Newport Coast and Shady Canyon
Despite the increase, overall inventory is still tight, contributing to market imbalance
�� Demand & Pending Sales
Buyer Demand is weak pending sales in June 2025 are significantly lower than in 2022 and 2023.
Luxury Market Demand has softened, but is showing slight improvement over 2024.
The gap between listings and pendings continues to widen, signaling a slowdown in buyer urgency.
�� Market Time
Expected Market Time (EMT) has risen sharply, especially in the luxury segment
Average days on market are creeping higher across all price points a shift toward a more balanced or softening
market
�� Closed Sales
Monthly closed sales in 2025 remain far below typical
volumes from past years
Year-over-year closed sales show little to no recovery,
reflecting the stalled buyer activity
Luxury Closings ($2 5M+) are trending downward but
remain stable relative to market conditions
�� Interest Rates & Affordability
High mortgage rates continue to weigh heavily on both
buyer demand and listing turnover
Affordability Index for first-time buyers is extremely low
near the lowest levels since the early 2000s
Many potential buyers are priced out or unwilling to act in
the current rate environment
�� Distressed & Off-Market Activity
Distressed Listings (short sales, foreclosures) remain
negligible no signs of financial stress across the market
Homes Pulled Off Market have increased sellers are
pausing if they can’t get their price
�� Luxury Market Snapshot
Inventory is up, but demand is not keeping pace, pushing market time higher
Closings and pending sales in the $2 5M+ range are down
year-over-year.
A buyer’s market is emerging in many luxury submarkets.
