Recent supply and contract prices show where choice exists and where it narrows.
If you are trying to figure out whether you still have time to compare options, the answer is yes, but not endlessly. Anaheim, CA had 1.7 months of supply last month, so I would assume there is some choice available, just not the kind of extra inventory that lets you postpone every decision.
Choice exists, but it is selective. In Anaheim, CA, the typical asking price for homes going under contract recently was $912,500, pending homes were at $925,000, and the market carried 1.7 months of supply last month. That tells me selection is there, but the best-positioned homes are still being claimed without much delay. For someone moving into the area, I would treat comparison time as useful only if it sharpens your standards. If it turns into hesitation, the market is tight enough that good options can leave the table while you are still deciding what matters most. Rank your priorities before you schedule more tours. Compare each home against the same checklist so your decision improves with each showing. Move quickly when a property clears your top standards, because Anaheim, CA is not carrying enough supply to reward drift.
