Homes in Downtown Los Angeles are taking time to change hands, with a median of 136 days on market in February 2026 and days on market up 8.37 percent month over month but down 4.23 percent from last year. This slower yet slightly improving pace lines up with a Neutral Market reading of 51, suggesting neither buyers nor sellers hold a clear upper hand right now.
Prices are adjusting as the market finds its balance. The typical home value sits around $510,000, down 8.93 percent year over year and 4.67 percent month over month. At the same time, the median list price is higher at $620,000 and has inched up 1.39 percent month over month. Only about 5.4 percent of recent sales closed above list, and the average sale-to-list ratio is roughly 0.97, pointing to modest negotiation room.
Supply and activity are shifting as well. Inventory stands at 179 homes, up 2.29 percent from the prior month but down 20.44 percent compared with last year, while new listings have fallen 39.87 percent year over year to 92 and pending sales are down 30 percent. Looking ahead to March 2026, typical values are projected to ease to $497,500 with inventory edging up to 181 and median list price near $624,250, even as the broader city of Los Angeles posts a typical value of about $1,010,000.
