Los Angeles metro average sale-to-list ratio since 2018, 99.6% in August 2026.

Share of Los Angeles metro homes sold above list price since 2018, 38% in the latest month.

Months of supply in the Los Angeles metro since 2018, 4.1 in the latest month.

Homes sold per month in the Los Angeles metro since 2008, 6,319 in September 2026.

Homes in the Los Angeles metro sold for 99.6% of their list price on average in August 2026, against 99.5% a year earlier, and 38% of them sold above it. The most competitive month in this record was April 2022, at 106.2% of list.

At September 2026’s pace of sales, the homes for sale would last 4.1 months — months of supply, for-sale inventory over a month’s sales. Under about four months is a market where sellers set the terms; six or more is one where buyers do. 6,319 homes sold in September 2026, against 6,652 a year earlier.

Every one of these has a season — spring is the bidding season — so compare a month with the same month a year earlier. These are Zillow’s figures for the Los Angeles-Long Beach-Anaheim metro, all homes, not seasonally adjusted; the newest month of sales is Zillow’s nowcast and firms up later. There is no median price here, on purpose: a median moves with which homes happen to sell, so a month heavy in condos reads as a fall in prices that did not happen.
