How Should Sellers Price Newport Beach, CA Homes in October 2026?

By Faye Daroeian

Newport Beach, CA

Choosing an asking price starts with a review of recent sales of similar homes, not simply matching other listings. I will help you distinguish useful comparisons from attractive numbers that do not fit your property.

For September 2026, Newport Beach's median list price for listings active at month-end was $4,575,000. The median sold price for properties sold during that month was $3,552,000. The reported sold-to-list price percentage was 97.4% for the same month. These figures cover single-family homes, condos, townhouses and apartments, with list prices and sold prices describing separate listed and sold groups.

The difference between these medians does not establish a negotiated discount or the value of your home. I would anchor your asking price in similar completed sales, then consider competing listings separately. Starting with an ambitious asking price requires a clear rationale, not an assumption that another listing proves yours.

Gather details about your home's size, condition and improvements so we can select meaningful sales comparisons. Review differences in size, condition and features with me before deciding which sales deserve the most weight. Choose an asking price and agree on what feedback would prompt another pricing discussion after your listing begins.
