I would stay selective, but I would not mistake limited supply for a reason to rush blindly.
If you are feeling pressure because the search seems tighter than expected, I would stay calm and get more selective, not less. In Corona, CA, supply stood at 2.78 months recently, so the market still required discipline from buyers without demanding panic.
A tighter selection environment changes how I would search. Recent offers landed at about 99% of asking, and a typical sale took 42 days over the previous 30 days. That combination tells me the good homes still matter quickly, but buyers do have a little room to compare before deciding. The most common mistake in Corona, CA is letting scarcity blur judgment. When the typical asking price for active homes was $799,000 last month and the typical closed price was $735,000, not every listing deserves the same urgency. I would rather lose one bad fit than win the wrong house. Set non-negotiables before you tour. Separate must-have homes from nice-to-have homes as you go. When a property meets the standard, move forward cleanly instead of reopening every earlier compromise.
