Market gauge is calculated using active listings and pending sales from the most recently available reporting period (Feb 2026 - Apr 2026).

Over the latest rolling three-month period ending in April 2026, Costa Mesa’s home values are slightly lower than a year ago. The typical home value is down a bit year over year, while the median list price has also eased compared with last spring. Even with those modest price declines, the average sale-to-list ratio is still just under 100 percent, signaling that buyers and sellers are meeting close to asking prices.

Inventory and activity have both shifted compared with last year’s levels. Active listings are down significantly year over year, and new listings have fallen even more sharply, pointing to fewer options for buyers. At the same time, homes sold and pending sales have both dipped compared with a year ago, indicating slightly cooler demand in this rolling three-month snapshot.

Looking at current conditions, homes are spending a median of 32 days on the market, much longer than a year ago, yet the market still leans toward sellers with only about two months of supply. Nearly half of homes are going under contract within two weeks, and roughly 39 percent are selling above list price, underscoring that well-priced properties can still move quickly. Buyers navigating limited inventory and sellers aiming to capitalize on strong pricing dynamics can both benefit from Agent Pronto’s help in finding a Costa Mesa agent who understands these evolving trends.

“At our first meeting Gautam had an accurate understanding of my neighborhood and it's surroundings. After walking through the house and the yards he gave a clear assessment of our home's value and the reasons why. He also had an idea of what types of buyers would likely show interest, and how to market our home to them. He had an excellent advertising package in mind. One day after being on the market we received a full-price offer. It fell through, but in line were two more full-price offers. The second potential buyer became the buyer. There were three issues with the property that arose and he handled them all. That was especially helpful as we were already out-of-state. The house sold without further issues. Gotham was easy to work with, and his expertise gave me confidence that things would be well-handled. I recommend Gautam highly, and would recommend him to family and friends.”

“We had an amazing experience working with Joelle! From the very beginning, she was incredibly patient, knowledgeable, and truly invested in helping us find the right home. Our search spanned across many cities in Orange County, and she never hesitated to go the extra mile—literally and figuratively. She gave us honest insights into each neighborhood, helped us understand the current market trends, and guided us through every step of the process. Thanks to her expertise and negotiation skills, we ended up with a fantastic deal on a home we absolutely love. If you’re looking for someone who’s professional, responsive, and genuinely has your best interests at heart, Joelle is the one. We couldn’t recommend her more!”

“My husband and I have really enjoyed working with Joel in the process of finding a new home. He has been extremely knowledgeable, patient, and professional. He was timely but not too pushy. He is very detailed-oriented, which we appreciated greatly in the unique home purchase we made. He was very clear in explaining documents, market trends, and legal topics we were less familiar with. He was also very reliable and dependable.”
