Is Now Still a Good Time to Sell Your Leisure Village Home?

Quick answer: Yes, homes are still selling in Leisure Village. But the market has cooled some. Prices per square foot are down, homes are taking longer to go pending, and pricing right matters more than it did last year. If you price and prep well, you can still get a good result in 2026.

If you own a home in Leisure Village and you're wondering whether to list now or wait, you're not alone. A lot of neighbors are asking the same thing. Here's what the current numbers actually show, and what they mean for you.

How Much Are Leisure Village Homes Selling For Right Now?

The median sale price in Leisure Village is $637,000, down 2.2% from a year ago. That's a soft dip, not a crash.

The bigger shift is in price per square foot. It's sitting at $493, down 10.4% year over year. That tells us buyers are paying less per square foot even though median prices haven't moved as much. Smaller, well-priced homes are likely doing the heavy lifting there.

For context, Camarillo overall (all neighborhoods, not just Leisure Village) is basically flat, down just 0.2% year over year. So Leisure Village is cooling a bit faster than the broader Camarillo market. That's worth knowing if you're comparing your home to a general "Camarillo is fine" headline.

How Long Does It Take to Sell a Home in Leisure Village Today?

Homes are taking 64 days on average to sell, compared to 38 days last year. That's a real shift in pace.

Redfin rates Leisure Village as "somewhat competitive," a 49 out of 100 on their compete score. Over the last six months, the average home has gone pending in about 53 days, often selling for around 5% below list price. Homes that are priced and presented well still move faster and closer to asking.

What This Means for Buyers

If you're buying in Leisure Village, you have more room to negotiate than you did a year or two ago. Homes are sitting a bit longer, and sellers are more open to reasonable offers. You're not walking into a bidding war on most listings right now.

What This Means for Sellers

Here's the honest read. You can still sell well in Leisure Village in 2026. But the days of pricing high and waiting for a bidding war are mostly behind us for now.

Pricing accurately from day one matters more than ever. Homes that come out overpriced tend to sit, then get a price cut, then sell for less than if they'd been priced right from the start. A home that's clean, well-staged, and priced to match today's per-square-foot numbers will still attract serious buyers.

This is also a good year to talk through timing with someone who knows the neighborhood. If you're weighing a move to be closer to family, downsizing further, or just curious what your specific model would sell for, a home value review can give you real numbers instead of guesswork.

What Should Leisure Village Homeowners Watch For

A few things worth keeping an eye on if you own here, even if you're not selling this year:

HOA dues vary by model. As of the April 2025-26 schedule, monthly dues range from $602 for an Avalon to $914 for a La Jolla, with most models falling somewhere in between. If you're planning to sell, know your exact dues number ahead of time. Buyers will ask.

Insurance costs are rising statewide. California insurance rates are expected to rise around 16% in 2026, and the CA FAIR Plan has announced an increase of about 30% starting in October 2026. This is a statewide trend, not specific to Leisure Village, but it's something buyers are factoring into their monthly cost math. If your policy is up for renewal soon, it's worth checking your new rate before you list, so there are no surprises during escrow.

Neither of these is a reason to panic. They're just things worth knowing so you're not caught off guard.
