El Segundo Market Report: Speed and Strategy Define December 2025 Trends

Is the El Segundo market slowing down for the holidays? The data says absolutely not.

As we close out the year, El Segundo remains a robust Seller’s Market. Whether you are looking at single-family homes or condos, inventory is tight, and buyer demand is keeping prices strong. For homeowners, this indicates equity preservation and growth; for buyers, it signals the need for decisive action and sharp negotiation strategies.

Single-Family Homes: Moving at Lightning Speed

The Single-Family Residence (SFR) market in El Segundo is incredibly competitive right now. Perhaps the most telling statistic is the speed of the market. The median days a property stays on the market (RPR) has dropped to just 6 days for sold listings. This means well-priced homes are going under contract almost immediately.

Furthermore, sellers are seeing strong returns. The sale-to-list price ratio currently sits at 103.8%, meaning the average home is selling over the asking price.

Median Sold Price: $1,850,000 (Up 12.9% month-over-month).
Months of Inventory: 2.36 months.
Market Action: The “Seller’s Market” indicator is strong, driven by low inventory levels.

The Condo & Townhouse Market: Significant Value Growth

The condo market is showing even more dramatic shifts in value. We have seen a substantial jump in the median sold price, now sitting at $1,075,000, which represents a significant month-over-month increase.

While homes are moving slightly slower than SFRs—averaging 54 days on the market —the inventory remains constrained at just 2.05 months of supply. This low supply is what keeps the leverage firmly in the hands of sellers.

What This Means for You

Sellers
The data suggests that waiting until spring might not be necessary. With SFRs selling in under a week and often over asking price, there is a pool of motivated buyers active right now. The low inventory environment allows your home to stand out.

For Buyers
Competition is real, particularly for single-family homes. With properties selling at nearly 104% of list price, your offer strategy needs to be aggressive but protected. It is crucial to have your financing fully vetted before touring, as the window to offer is effectively less than a week.
