Orange County Housing Market May 2025 – Has the Summer Slowdown Already Started?

The Orange County housing market is showing clear signs of a summer slowdown—and we’re only in May. In this month’s May 2025 Housing Market Update, I break down what’s really going on with local real estate trends, interest rates, inventory levels, and what it all means if you're planning to buy or sell a home in Orange County this summer.

📉 Here’s what we cover in this update:

-Inventory surge: 700+ more homes hit the market this month

-Why closed sales aren’t keeping pace with inventory

-What rising days-on-market means for buyers and sellers

-How interest rates (currently at 6.87%) could shape the summer market

-My honest advice for both homebuyers and sellers in today's conditions

Right now, the Orange County real estate market is balanced—but that could change quickly depending on where mortgage rates head next. Want to have a friendly no pressure conversation about your specific real estate related questions?
