Long Beach's housing market follows the greater LA trend, but with its own seaside vibe. It's a more affordable coastal alternative to Los Angeles or Orange County, which keeps it consistently in demand.
Home prices in Long Beach have risen over the years, though not as dramatically as some SoCal hotspots. With higher interest rates cooling the broader market, Long Beach has mellowed too - bidding wars have eased and there are a few more homes on the market now.
That said, Long Beach is still competitive. Good homes, especially near the beach or in nice neighborhoods, find eager buyers. The difference is that buyers might not have to go to extremes to win a house now.
Sellers have become a bit more flexible on price and terms as everyone adapts to a cooler market. Most properties are still selling at solid prices, just with a little more negotiation involved. Foreclosure listings are rare in Long Beach - after years of rising values, most homeowners have healthy equity and aren't under water. Overall, Long Beach's market remains healthy and active, just sailing at a more relaxed pace than during the peak frenzy.
