Current value matters when the goal is a simpler next chapter
If you are asking whether it is time to simplify your housing in Irwindale, CA, I would answer by looking at what your home is worth now, not what it might have been worth before. The recent typical estimated value was $756,240 last month.
A simpler move starts with knowing the current value range you are working from. In Irwindale, CA, a typical estimated property value was $756,240 last month, compared with $777,470 one month earlier, and the reported 12 month change was -3%. That tells me a practical plan beats a speculative one. I would focus on what a move would improve in daily life and how much equity it would free up, rather than delaying for a price target that is not reflected in the recent value picture. Set your priorities around ease of living. Define the payment and maintenance level you want next. I would make those decisions first, then line up timing around them.
