How Is the North Ranch Real Estate Market Performing in 2026?

With 131 active listings, 40 properties in escrow, and 30 homes sold this month, that number of active homes, especially this late in the year, is unusually high for Westlake Village, North Ranch, and Lake Sherwood. Some listings have been on the market 200, 500+ days, particularly in the luxury and ultra-luxury price ranges, as buyers aren't chasing aspirational prices anymore, instead chasing value, condition, and credibility. Even in the $2M, $3M range and even in Sherwood, North Ranch, and lake-adjacent neighborhoods, buyers are writing strong offers when the home makes sense. This suggests that properly priced North Ranch properties continue to find qualified buyers despite broader market conditions. Inventory in late February was roughly 111 active listings, and median days to pending was about 58 days, with a recent sale-to-list ratio reading about 99 percent in short-window data. Short-window data suggests a well-priced, well-presented Westlake Village luxury listing can close near list price. The luxury market requires specific positioning strategies. Recent years have seen custom properties and guard-gated estates close in the multi-million range, illustrating how lot scale, privacy, and club access add scarcity and elevate values, while gating, exclusive HOAs, and limited-access streets often increase buyer demand for privacy and control over neighborhood upkeep.
