📈 July 2025 Market Update: Rancho Cucamonga + Surrounding Cities

Here’s what I’m seeing in the trenches:

1. Prices are holding stronger than expected.
Inventory is still historically low across Rancho, Upland, Fontana, and Ontario. That’s keeping prices more stable than many predicted—especially for well-priced homes under $800K.

2. Buyers are more selective, but more serious.
People aren’t just browsing. If someone’s touring homes in this market, they’re ready. They're just being smarter with what they pursue—and what they walk away from.

3. Sellers are winning… if they prepare right.
Homes that are move-in ready, priced right, and marketed well are still getting multiple offers. Homes that aren’t? Sitting. Small upgrades, proper pricing, and pro photos still make a huge difference.

4. Interest rates are fluctuating, but not freezing buyers.
Rates have bounced between 6.6–7.1%, but many buyers are finding creative solutions—rate buydowns, seller credits, or simply adjusting expectations. People are adapting.

5. The “wait-and-see” crowd is shrinking.
Here’s the shift: people are realizing that waiting doesn't guarantee better prices or rates—it just means missed opportunities. If the numbers make sense today, smart buyers and sellers are moving forward.


Curious what this means for your next move?
I’m happy to run the numbers, talk strategy, or simply keep you in the loop.

Let’s make your next step an informed one—not a rushed one.
