Use the key numbers to decide what makes sense right now
You are trying to decide if it is smarter to buy, sell, or sit tight, and you want the decision to feel grounded. My guidance is to base your plan on the market constraints that are actually reported. Looking at the latest numbers, the clearest signal was supply at 2.27 months last month in San Gabriel, CA.
That matters because supply shapes your options and your leverage. With 2.27 months of supply, you should expect limited choice, and you should be ready to act when you find a match. This changes your plan because pricing and timing need to be intentional. A typical closed price was $985,000 last month in San Gabriel, CA, and recent offers landed about 98.8% of asking, which suggests realistic pricing and clean execution still win. Action steps I recommend If you are buying, tighten your criteria and be ready to move when the right home appears, because limited supply can punish indecision. If you are selling, position your price and presentation to earn a close near the 98.8% of asking benchmark. For either direction, build your calendar around the typical 49-day sale timeline so your move stays coordinated and less stressful.
