Los Angeles home values and housing data, from records we hold.
The figures for Los Angeles’s homes below are computed from records we hold ourselves — county parcels swept into our own store, plus 1,020 automated value estimates in a sample that covers part of Los Angeles — not scraped from another site. A figure from anywhere else — a survey’s rate, an example price, a published metro reading — is named as that where it appears.

How much are homes in Los Angeles, CA estimated to be worth?
$1,430,600 is the middle of 1,020 automated value estimates in a sample that covers part of Los Angeles — not sale prices, and not a citywide median. The middle half of that sample runs from $901,675 to $2,149,350. Each estimate is a model's output for one home — a starting point, not an appraisal.
What does a typical Los Angeles home look like?
Across 266,888 residential county parcels in Los Angeles: the median home is 1,421 square feet with 3 bedrooms, built around 1942 (about 84 years old), on a 6,000 sq ft lot. 80% of parcels are single-family homes and 20% are condominiums.
What does it cost to sell a home in Los Angeles?
Commission is negotiable; there is no standard rate. As an example, on a $950,000 home the 5.46% national average total commission in the Clever Real Estate survey of 434 agents, August 2026, which adds the listing and buyer-agent sides together, is about $51,870, and each point of commission is about $9,500. $950,000 is an example price for a home in Los Angeles, not a statistic. Escrow, title and other closing costs are separate and are not estimated here. Run your own numbers in the Los Angeles commission calculator.
How do Los Angeles home values compare with other California cities?
Los Angeles's figure is $1,430,600, the middle of 1,020 automated value estimates in a sample that covers part of Los Angeles — not sale prices, and not a citywide median. The same figure for the other California cities we hold a sample for: San Diego $1,188,600 (1,055 estimates), San Jose $1,555,550 (1,042) and Sacramento $492,200 (1,038). Each sample covers part of its city, and a different part in each, so the order of these figures is not a ranking of the cities. To compare the cities themselves, use a published citywide or metro figure rather than these samples.
How much do home values vary within Los Angeles?
Inside the sample we hold, the 25th-percentile estimate is $901,675 and the 75th is $2,149,350 — the top of the middle half sits 138% above the bottom, a very wide band. That is the spread of 1,020 automated value estimates in a sample that covers part of Los Angeles, not of the whole city. What a home in Silver Lake, Mar Vista or Highland Park is worth depends on the specific pocket rather than the city, and whether the house reads as a remodel or a teardown, so recent sales within a few blocks say more about one home than the middle of any sample.
How old are Los Angeles's homes, and what kind are they?
The median Los Angeles home was built around 1942, which makes the typical house about 84 years old — post-war construction. Buyers price that age into their offer: roofs, wiring, plumbing and windows of that era are either already replaced or on the list, and the county record shows which. The median parcel is a 6,000 sq ft lot (about 0.14 acres), the conventional suburban footprint. Single-family homes are 80% of parcels and condominiums 20%, so most sellers are pricing a house and its land. These are medians across all 266,888 residential parcels we hold for Los Angeles, not a sample.
What is the Los Angeles housing market doing right now?
The typical mid-tier home value across the Los Angeles, CA metro area was $952,601 as of August 2026; the median sale price was $955,000 (August 2026); 40.0% of homes sold above asking and the average sale closed at 99.9% of list; 7,188 new listings came to market in August 2026. That is a market where well-priced homes still draw competing offers, so the listing price an agent proposes — and the evidence behind it — is the decision that matters most. Our own figure is a different kind of number: $1,430,600 is the middle of 1,020 automated value estimates in a sample that covers part of Los Angeles — not sale prices, and not a citywide median. The metro figures cover the whole metro area and are not a valuation of any one home.
How do I find out what my own Los Angeles home is worth?
Enter your address on this page. We look up the county record for your home — size, lot, year built, last recorded sale — and show an automated estimate beside it, with no phone number and no agent calling you. Then, if you choose, post the home once: up to ten Los Angeles agents, ranked by verified performance and never by payment, each send a sealed proposal with their own pricing opinion and their fee in writing. So several written opinions of price and fee are worth more here than any single estimate.
Where these numbers come from
We maintain our own store of county assessor parcel records — 266,888 of them for Los Angeles so far, growing daily. Housing-stock figures are medians across 266,888 county assessor parcel records held first-party. Value figures come from 1,020 automated estimates, most fetched in August 2026, for homes among the 266,888 Los Angeles parcel records we hold. The sample was drawn when we held records for part of Los Angeles, so its middle is not a citywide median; automated estimates are not sale prices or appraisals. No figure is scraped from another website.
