What This Means
Anaheim's housing market is showing resilience heading into summer, with prices continuing their upward trajectory despite some headwinds. The median sale price climbed to $957,500 this month, up 6.7% from April and 7.6% year-over-year. What's particularly telling is that homes are selling slightly above asking price, with a sale-to-list ratio of 100.7%, suggesting continued buyer demand even as inventory sits at a healthier 472 active listings. This buyer enthusiasm likely reflects the area's appeal as a relatively affordable Orange County option, especially for families drawn to the Disneyland proximity and job centers.
However, there are subtle signs of market cooling. Homes are lingering three days longer on the market than April, now averaging 63 days. While this is hardly alarming, it does suggest that the frenzy isn't what it once was. The gap between median and average prices sits at over $108,000, indicating that pricier properties are pushing the average upward while typical buyers are settling around $957,500. With interest rates remaining elevated, buyers appear more deliberate and selective rather than rushing into bidding wars.
For now, Anaheim remains a seller's market, but it's gradually becoming a more balanced one.
