Santa Clarita Is Two Housing Markets Now. Which One Are You In?

Santa Clarita is not one housing market right now. It is two, and if you own a condo, you are living in the other one. Connor MacIvor walks through the numbers from the morning of October 10, 2026. What you will hear: - The board: 858 homes for sale across the valley, up 6 from a week earlier, and 143 in escrow, down 10. - Single-family homes: about 3 months of supply, still a seller's market, with a 30-day median near $850,000 and about 28 days to sell. - Condos: about 6 months of supply, buyer's market territory, a $453,500 median and about 48 days to sell. Townhomes sit in between at a $595,000 median. - Over the last 30 days, about 48 percent of homes sold under asking, about 28 percent sold over, and about 39 percent had cut their original price before finding a buyer. - 272 homes, roughly one in three listings, have been on the market more than 60 days. Most started at the wrong number. - 13 days versus 48: homes that sold over asking went in 13 days, homes that sold under asking took about 48. - Sellers: price to what actually sold near you in the last 90 days and win the first two weeks. Buyers, especially of condos and townhomes: you have leverage. Ask about credits and terms, not just price. - Two dates: the 30-year fixed averaged 7.40 percent in Freddie Mac's October 8 survey, and California FAIR Plan dwelling policies renewing on or after October 15 move to newly approved rates, an average increase of 29.1 percent statewide, with individual policies varying.
