Los Alamitos is firmly in a seller’s market right now, with a market gauge of 13 reflecting strong seller leverage. With only 5 homes on the market and just 1.7 months of supply, buyers are facing limited options and faster decision timelines.
Prices are also signaling this tightness, as the typical home value sits around $1,500,000 and has climbed about 54% year over year, with a sharp 46.34% jump just since last month. Median list prices are about $1,199,000 in February 2026, up more than 15% from the prior month, while homes are spending a median of only 24 days on the market, down over 67% month over month and 52% year over year.
Seller strength shows up in negotiations too, with 100% of recent sales closing above list price and an average sale-to-list ratio just over 1.02. Looking ahead to March 2026, projections point to a typical home value of about $1,737,500 and a median list price near $1,278,500, even as inventory is expected to shrink to around 3 homes. Compared with Orange County overall, where typical values are closer to $1,200,000 and have been slightly declining, Los Alamitos is seeing much stronger upward pressure on prices.
