If you currently own a home priced under and around $500,000 in Orange County, you have the advantage if you are considering a move up. It is a seller’s market in that price range where you can now get a good price for your home and sell fairly quickly. If you are going to purchase for around $800,000 and up, it is still a buyer’s market where you can get more bang for your buck, and the distress sales are fewer at that price point. Your buying and selling power is truly at a peak right now, so take advantage!
