Long Beach CA Real Estate Market Update April 2022

Ready for the latest housing market update for Long Beach, CA? Many people thought that we’d be seeing an increase in inventory and a decline in demand by now which would stabilize prices but, that’s not the case. With the increase in interest rates and home prices, we’re starting to see some buyer fatigue. However, buyer demand is still far higher than the number of homes on the market. The month’s supply of inventory of single-family homes in March was only 1 month. In terms of home prices, the median home price in Long Beach last month was $890,000 and for condos, it was $485,000.

Buyers

It’s imperative that you start your home search early and with experts by your side. Patience is key, as well as the understanding that the first house you like may not be the one you get. It’s also possible that you will get into bidding wars or experience a multiple counteroffer situation. This is where the experts come in. The right real estate agent will be able to guide you through these situations and take away at least some of the stress that comes with buying a home.

Some buyers currently say they’re waiting to buy because they expect the market to crash and prices to come down. However, that’s not necessarily the case. Learn more in the video below.

Give us a call at 562.896.2456 so we can set up an appointment for you with a lender and start talking budget. We can also set up a personalized home search for you so you can be the first to know when new listings hit the market.
