Current conditions favor sellers who are ready to act, not just think about it.
If you have been putting off a sale and wondering whether waiting is helping, I would look at how quickly homes are moving right now. In Anaheim, CA, a typical sale took 15 days over the previous 30 days, so my read is that hesitation matters more than usual when your home is ready to compete.
Over the previous 30 days, Anaheim, CA homes sold in about 15 days, recent offers met 100% of asking, and supply stood at 1.7 months. The typical asking price for active homes was $928,949. That creates a setting where readiness can turn into real leverage. I do not mean every homeowner should rush to market. I mean that once your decision is made, dragging out repairs, photos, pricing, or launch timing can cost you the advantage that a low-supply market is offering. In Anaheim, CA, buyers appear willing to act when a home is presented well and priced credibly. That puts more pressure on the seller to be organized before the listing goes live. Finish the prep work now. Decide on pricing before emotions take over. Launch when the home is fully ready, because this market gives prepared sellers a better chance to capture attention quickly. For someone planning to buy next, that same urgency should be built into the overall move plan.
