Yes, but the current pace says you should be prepared before it does.
If you are waiting for the right home to show up, that is reasonable. What matters now is being ready enough to recognize it and respond without scrambling when it does.
In Montebello, CA, there were 10 newly listed for-sale properties in the latest three-month activity summary, with a typical asking price of $949,444 and a typical 4 days on market for new listings. Pending homes also numbered 10, with a typical 9 days before moving forward. That tells me fresh listings can draw fast attention when they match what the market wants. I would combine that with the broader market picture of 2.32 months of supply and a 27 day typical sale timeline over the previous month. The takeaway is not to chase every listing. It is to be ready when a well-priced fit appears in Montebello, CA. Speed matters most when the home checks your boxes and the number is supportable. Get clear on your must-haves before new listings hit your screen. Review homes quickly and rule them in or out fast. Have your paperwork, budget, and decision process ready in advance so a strong opportunity does not become a missed one.
