Information and statistics on the latest trends in the Brea real estate market, updated for March 2026. *
The typical home value in Brea is projected to be $1,198,500 for the month of February. January’s finalized data reported the typical value of a home in the city to be $1,150,000—down 0.0% over the previous 12 months. For comparison, county-level data pegged home values at $1,190,000 in Orange County for the most recent reporting period. That number is expected to float around $1,202,500 in February.
Brea had 32 new listings and 23 listings that went under contract in January, increasing the area’s total available inventory to 37—up 37.04% from the previous month. Inventory is projected to have further increased in February.
Of those 37 active listings, 21.62% reduced their price in the month of January. The median listing price for homes in Brea grew 14.11% from December to January, bringing the current median listing price to $998,500. Based on projected data for February, listing prices may continue to grow.
The number of days that homes have been on the market prior to going under contract has been fairly steady year-over-year. In January 2026, the median time for a listed property to go pending was 28 days, compared to 28 days in January 2025. However, in recent months the median number of days from listed to pending appears to be rising. That trend is predicted to have carried through to this February.
Market gauge is calculated based on the the number of active listings divided by home sales over the most recently available reporting period.
Brea offers residents a vibrant, family-friendly lifestyle with excellent schools, inviting parks, diverse dining and cultural options, and convenient access to work, shopping, and recreation.
Brea stands out from nearby Fullerton and Anaheim with a strong small‑city identity built around arts, schools, and community events rather than tourism. The walkable Brea Downtown district combines local restaurants, a movie theater, and public art, including the city’s respected Art in Public Places collection that stretches throughout town.
Families are drawn to the award‑winning Brea Olinda Unified School District, and many days revolve around youth sports and school activities. Residents have quick access to everyday shopping along Imperial Highway, yet still enjoy outdoor escapes like Carbon Canyon Regional Park with its redwood grove and fishing lake. The Brea Civic & Cultural Center anchors city services, performances, and the popular farmers market, fostering a strong sense of connection.
Commuters value Brea’s location near Orange and Yorba Linda, with regional job centers within a manageable drive. Housing ranges from established neighborhoods near La Habra to newer developments on the city’s eastern side, so pricing and competition can vary block by block.
In a market where well‑priced homes still move quickly, timing and preparation are critical. Whether you are getting your property market‑ready or trying to secure the right home in a competitive environment, Agent Pronto can connect you with an experienced Brea real estate agent who understands the community and can guide both buyers and sellers with confidence.
