The Real Numbers - Pulled This Morning
Let me be real with you for a second.
When sellers ask me how fast their home will sell, there's a question underneath that question: Am I in a good position?
And when buyers ask how competitive a neighborhood is, what they really want to know is: Do I have a shot, or am I already too late?
The answer to both questions lives in one little number: days on market.
It sounds boring. It's anything but.
Here's what's actually happening right now, not last quarter, not last year, pulled directly from the MLS this morning for zip codes 90056 and 90043. That's Ladera Heights and View Park-Windsor Hills. My neighborhoods.

Now Let Me Tell You What These Numbers Actually Mean
The Median DOM of 15-16 Days Is the Headline
The median days on market tells you what's happening in the middle of the market, not the outliers, not the overpriced listings sitting and waiting. The median.
In Ladera Heights and View Park-Windsor Hills right now, the median sold home went under contract in 16 days. The median active listing has been on market for just 15 days.
For context, here's how that compares to the broader market:
-
City of Los Angeles average: 61 days
-
Los Angeles County average: 56 days
-
National average: 53-55 days
Your neighborhood is moving 3 to 4 times faster than the broader LA market. That is not a talking point. That is your MLS data speaking.
60% of Homes Sold in 30 Days or Less
Here's where it gets even more interesting. When I break down the sold data by time frame, here's what the numbers show:
0–30 Days: 34 homes sold | 60.71% of total | Avg. sale vs. list: 100.96%
31–60 Days: 11 homes sold | 19.64% of total | Avg. sale vs. list: 99.09%
61–90 Days: 1 home sold | 1.79% of total | Avg. sale vs. list: 95.07%
91–120 Days: 3 homes sold | 5.36% of total | Avg. sale vs. list: 98.68%
120+ Days: 7 homes sold | 12.50% of total | Avg. sale vs. list: 94.47%
Read that first line again.
60% of homes sold in this market went under contract within 30 days, and those homes sold for an average of 100.96% of list price. That means sellers got more than they asked for.
The homes that sat longer? They sold for as low as 94.47% of list price. That's the cost of being overpriced or underprepared in a market that moves fast and has zero patience for either.
Sellers Are Getting Nearly Full Price - Across the Board
The average sold price as a percentage of list price came in at 99.85%. Even when you factor in the original list price, which sometimes gets reduced before a home sells, sellers in this market are still netting 95.93% of their original asking price on average.
In a market where LA County sellers are increasingly giving concessions and accepting offers below ask, this is a meaningful number. Homes here are holding their value.
What This Means If You're a Seller
You are sitting in one of the most resilient real estate markets in Los Angeles.
Homes priced correctly and marketed well are going under contract in two weeks or less, and they're selling at or above list price. That's not happening in most of LA right now.
But here's what I need you to hear: "fast" doesn't mean "automatic."
The 34 homes that sold in under 30 days and closed above asking price? Those sellers were prepared. Their homes showed well. Their pricing made sense. Their marketing reached the right buyers.
The 7 homes that sat for 120+ days? They left an average of 5.5% on the table, and they still had to wait months to get there.
The difference between those two outcomes is strategy. And that's exactly what I bring to every listing I take.
What This Means If You're a Buyer
If you've been watching this market and waiting for prices to soften significantly, I'm going to give you an honest reality check, delivered with love.
60% of homes here are gone within 30 days. The best ones? Even faster.
The buyers who succeed in Ladera Heights and View Park-Windsor Hills are not the ones who wait. They're the ones who are pre-approved, clear on what they want, and working with an agent who knows this market well enough to move when it's time.
If you're not prepared when the right home hits the market, you will watch someone else close on it. I've seen it happen too many times.
The good news: with 40 active listings right now and a median price of just under $1 million, there is inventory. There is opportunity. The window is open, but it moves.
