If you’ve been sitting on your Bixby Knolls or California Heights home wondering whether now is the time, the numbers say yes.
Over the past three months, homes in 90807 sold for a median price of $1,140,242, up nearly 17% from last year — with the typical range for single-family homes from $1.0M for classic Cal Heights bungalows to $2.5M+ for larger, updated Bixby Knolls homes. 58 homes changed hands in June alone, and they moved fast — a median of just 29–31 days on market, down from 41 a year ago. Typical homes receive around 3 offers, and more than half of sellers (55%) sold above asking price.
Translation: whether your home is a cozy bungalow or a larger updated property, if it’s priced right and shown well, buyers are lining up. Curious what that means for your specific home? A five-minute call tells you where you stand — no pressure, no obligation.
Why this matters if you’re thinking about downsizing, relocating, or making a life transition
I talk to a lot of longtime 90807 homeowners — empty nesters ready to trade a big yard for less upkeep, families relocating for work or to be closer to grandkids, and people simply ready for their next chapter. The hesitation is almost always the same: “Where would we even go, and can we actually afford the move?”
Here’s the good news: with equity built over the past 5, 10, 20 years or more, most sellers I work with are in a far stronger position than they realize. And if you’re 55+, Prop 19 may let you transfer your current low property tax base to your next home anywhere in California — a huge advantage that makes downsizing or relocating far more affordable than most homeowners realize. Not sure how Prop 19 applies to your situation? Let’s figure it out together — give me a call.
