The market still gives sellers leverage, but I would not confuse that with unlimited pricing power.
If you are thinking about listing and wondering how ambitious you can be on price, I would stay grounded. In Corona, CA, the market still leaned seller-friendly recently, but recent offers landed at 99% of asking, which tells me buyers are engaged without being careless.
That balance matters. Last month, the typical asking price for active homes was $799,000, while the typical closed price was $735,000 and a typical sale took 42 days. I see that as a market where pricing well can preserve momentum, while overreaching can burn time. Sellers in Corona, CA still have a workable setup because supply stood at 2.78 months recently. Even so, I would not read that as permission to test the outer edge of the market. When buyers are paying close to asking instead of far above it, precision becomes more valuable than bravado. Price from the buyer's point of view, not just your own target number. Make the home easy to say yes to in person and online. Give yourself room to attract strong interest early instead of chasing it later.
