Sell My Home Real Estate

05/29/2026

If you're renting in Orange County and waiting for prices to drop or rates to come down before you buy, the math might change your mind.
OC home prices are up 4.9% year over year. At the average price of $1.3 million, that's $63,700 in equity the average OC homeowner built in the last 12 months. If you're renting, your number is zero — and your landlord can legally raise your rent up to 8.5% this year.
I put together a video breaking down the real dollar cost of waiting, when waiting actually makes sense, and one negotiation move that most buyers don't even know exists.

Waiting to buy an OC home is costing you real money every month you stay on the sidelines — and the math is harder to ignore than you think. OC home prices a...

Inventory is up, buyers are analytical, and the easy equity gains in OC are over. If you're thinking about selling, the homes that are winning right now are the ones that are prepared — not just listed.
I just posted a video walking through exactly what's working in North OC: the upgrades with the highest ROI, what buyers are prioritizing, and one specific move with solar that's helping homes sell up to 15 days faster.
If you own a home in OC and you're thinking about making a move in the next 6-12 months, this one's worth your time.

Most buyers researching North OC put together a short list — Yorba Linda, Brea, maybe Anaheim Hills — and skip Orange entirely. That's a pattern I've noticed for years, and it consistently works in favor of the buyers who don't skip it.
Old Towne Orange alone is unlike anything else in the county — walkable streets, genuine architectural character, coffee shops and farmers markets within walking distance. And the price range is more accessible than most people assume. Here's the full breakdown before you finalize your list:

Most buyers in North Orange County don't realize it yet — but the market has shifted in their favor. Inventory is up, homes are sitting longer, and sellers who were fielding multiple offers six months ago are now offering concessions just to get deals done.
The $800K–$1.3M move-up range is where the leverage is strongest right now. Seller-paid closing costs, rate buydowns, inspection credits — these are back on the table in cities like Brea, Yorba Linda, Fullerton, and Corona. But this window won't stay open forever.
Here's what's changed and how to position yourself to use it:

Most people searching North OC homes skip right past Anaheim Hills — usually because they hear "Anaheim" and picture something completely different. The reality is a hillside community with canyon views, a genuine range of price points from the $700s to well over $1.5M, solid schools, and the kind of constrained supply that tends to hold value when the broader market gets choppy.
There are also a few things — HOA variations, fire insurance costs, seasonal road conditions — that buyers typically find out after they're already in escrow. I put together a full breakdown so you know what you're walking into before you start touring.

The LA and OC real estate market has officially flipped.
Right now in LA County, there are over 16,000 homes for sale — and only about 4,000 sold last month. That's 4 homes for every 1 buyer. In Covina alone, 93 homes are competing for less than a third that many buyers. Frank Lopez and I just recorded a straight-talk episode breaking down what's driving this shift, who it's hitting hardest, and the pricing move that separates homes that sell from homes that sit.
If you're thinking about selling a move-up home in LA or Orange County, this one's worth your time. Call or text 714-735-0362 with any questions.
