San Clemente (ZIP 92673) typical home value is $1.74M as of Aug 2026. This week’s buyer-versus-seller gauge for the wider metro reads “Leans buyers”, and below you can follow the market week over week and month over month.

What changed

  • Week over week: the metro gauge moved from “balanced” (54) to “leans buyers” (59). New pending sales were 1,195 vs 1,250 last week, and new listings 1,614 vs 1,599.
  • Month over month: typical home value in the ZIP went from $1.73M in Jul 2026 to $1.74M in Aug 2026 (+0.60%).
  • Last four weeks: the gauge held steady near 59 (higher favors buyers).

If you are buying

  • Steady selection. About 75 homes are for sale right now, so it pays to be ready when the right one arrives.
  • Room to talk terms. Roughly 23% of listings have had a price adjustment, which often opens the door to a good conversation.
  • Know your payment. The average 30-year fixed rate was 7.03% in the Freddie Mac survey for the week of Sep 24, 2026. Rudy can run the numbers for any home in minutes.

If you are selling

  • Demand check. Zillow’s market temperature index for the ZIP is 63 out of 100 (higher means hotter).
  • Price with the latest data. A pricing plan built on this month’s and this week’s activity is your best advantage. Ask Rudy for a free, no-pressure valuation.

Market statistics describe the past and the broader area; they are not an appraisal, a price opinion or a prediction. Rudy can build a report for your own street or building.

How the gauge works

Weekly gauge (metro area). Weekly sales data is not published for individual ZIP codes, so the weekly reading uses the whole Los Angeles–Long Beach–Anaheim metro area (which includes Orange County). Half of the score is months of supply (homes for sale divided by the pace of new pending sales) on the usual industry scale. The other half compares this week’s price-cut share, days to pending and new pending sales versus new listings with every week since 2018. Zero is strongly seller-favoring and 100 is strongly buyer-favoring.

Monthly gauge (ZIP). Compares this month’s homes for sale, price-cut share and Zillow’s market temperature for this ZIP with the ZIP’s own readings over the past five years (or since 2018). It shows how this month feels compared with what is normal here, not compared with other places.

Both are simple, transparent summaries of public data. They describe a moment in time and are not advice or a forecast.

Rates and your payment

An example, not a quote

A home at the typical value of $1.74M with 20% down and a 30-year fixed loan at 7.03% works out to about $9,271 a month in principal and interest (before taxes, insurance and any HOA dues).

The Federal Reserve’s target range is currently 3.75%–4.00% (since Sep 17, 2026). Try your own numbers in the payment calculator.
