California's 50 of 51 counties experienced a sales drop compared to a year ago, with 35 counties dropping more than 30% in sales volume, with weather having a major impact.  Median price statewide for March was $791,490, compared to the $851,130 median price for March of 2022. California Association of Realtors reports:

"California’s median home price grew for the first time in seven months in March, increasing 7.6 percent from February’s $735,480 to $791,490. March’s price also was lower on a year-over-year basis for the fifth consecutive month, declining 7.0 percent from the revised $851,130 recorded last March. With home prices rising more sharply than the normal seasonal pattern last year, the market could see larger year-over-year price drops as it moves through the spring home-buying season."

Even with interest rates higher than last year, prices locally in Long Beach remain strong, while inventory is low and buyers are still competing with each other.

Getting a home estimate is a good planning tool, even if you are not sure you're selling right away.  While there are online estimates of value available, automated valuation systems do not select for certain property features, and may vary greatly with one another. Ask a professional.
