Why the current price signals matter before you make a move
When a seller is deciding whether to launch now or wait, the real question is how the current price signals line up with buyer response. In Chatsworth, CA, last month the median list price was $1,194,450, and I would use that as the starting point before making any pricing decision.
A median list price of $1,194,450 last month tells me sellers are still asking at a high level in Chatsworth, CA. I do not read that as permission to push even higher without a reason I read it as a reminder that the opening number has to be defensible. That matters because the market also posted a 21-day typical sale timeline last month. When price is set too far from the market's center, the first thing that usually suffers is buyer urgency, and that is expensive time to lose. I would compare the asking number against the most relevant recent closings before going live. I would also be ready to make a quick adjustment if showings do not support the price in the first stretch.
