Orange County Market Update! The Condo Conundrum

Click to see the summary report

Condo and townhome sales continue to trail detached homes, with attached properties now taking an average of 114 days to sell, compared to 93 days for detached homes.

Higher HOA dues, elevated mortgage rates, and stricter financing requirements are making condos less affordable, leading to softer demand and slower price growth compared to detached homes.

Orange County housing inventory has climbed to its highest level since last July, while buyer demand remains historically low, keeping the market slower than in recent years.
