Prepare for Launch
It is officially the start of the Winter Market when buyer demand surges higher, inventory rises at a slower pace, and the market speeds up noticeably.
After an exceptionally chilly start to the year, the Orange County housing market is about to heat up with soaring buyer demand.
So many are anticipating the return of the summer Olympics to Los Angeles in 2028. The opening ceremonies, track and field, swimming, basketball, soccer, gymnastics, cycling, volleyball, and a variety of other sports are all converging on Southern California in 2½ years. Just about everyone has their favorite. For those who want to attend one of the events in person, the presale registration opened up on January 14th at 7 a.m. There were over 1.5 million ticket registrations in the first 24 hours, the most in Olympic history. There was so much interest that wait times exceeded an hour. Demand for tickets surged, and the LA28 Olympic Committee expects to sell 14 million tickets, breaking the record set at the Paris 2024 Games.
Now that housing has reached mid-January, it feels like tickets just went on sale for buyers to tour houses, write offers, and secure their next home.
