How’s the Huntington Beach Real Estate Market?

On January 18, 2024, the Days of Supply* for all homes in Huntington Beach was sitting at 78, which is well into the Balanced Market Range and starting to get close to a Buyer’s Market. This was attributable to mortgage rates spiking to over 8% in October 2023.
Then, the Federal Reserve indicated they were going to start easing, and mortgage rates fell to the 6.75% level. Buyers entered the market again in droves. Many experts predicted mortgage rates would continue to fall, but they have since jumped back up over 7%.

Who knew, but all can agree that 7% is better than 8% and we are now moving into the best time of the year to list a home. The Days of Supply* has dropped to the lowest level of the year, and now sits at 38 days (April 11, 2024)
This is a “Days of Supply” level consistent with a Strong Seller’s Market.

*Days of Supply is defined as the number of days required to sell all the homes currently on the market at the present rate of home sales.

The Scout Cabin in Lake Park is 100 Years Old this year! I remember going there as a kid... great story!

Built in 1924 to serve Boy Scout Troop 1 and reconstructed in the early 1970s, Paxson Cabin is a landmark in Huntington Beach's Lake Park.

SOLD OUT!!!
Saturday 4:30pm
Thank you to everyone who ordered!!
My apologies to everyone who missed it.

RECENTLY UNEARTHED!! While going through the research I did for the book, I stumbled across a BOX OF GOLDEN BEAR BOOKS that I set aside. I've been "sold out" of these for almost 5 years, and I know they've been selling at crazy prices on ebay. I personally apologize to anyone who paid "a premium." For anyone who has been looking to get a copy (and many have reached out to me) this is your chance. When these are gone, they're gone.

This event supports combat veterans and likely the best event of its kind on the west coast.
