Market Action Index

Current MAI: 33 (Slight Seller's Advantage) | Last Month's MAI: 34

The MAI has eased slightly, reflecting a gradual increase in supply relative to demand. The market remains in seller's territory, but the trend is worth monitoring — continued softening could begin to shift negotiating dynamics heading into summer.

Market Narrative

Westlake Village 91361 moves into mid-May 2026 with the steady, quiet confidence that defines this community. Average home prices have appreciated approximately 6.8% year-over-year, a meaningful gain that reflects durable demand for one of the region's most coveted lifestyle addresses — anchored by the lake, top-rated schools, and a neighborhood character that's genuinely hard to replicate.

Classic Westlake Village neighborhoods — First Neighborhood, Westlake Island, Foxmoor, and the lake communities — remain in consistent demand and continue to generate the strongest buyer interest. Sherwood, at the upper end of the market, is also showing notable strength. The broader ZIP, however, tells a nuanced story: some luxury and ultra-luxury listings have been sitting considerably longer, particularly those priced ambitiously without strong condition or presentation to back it up. Well-priced, well-presented homes are still moving within a reasonable timeframe and achieving solid outcomes. Overpriced listings are not.

Conclusion

Westlake Village 91361 remains one of the most desirable communities in the greater Los Angeles area, and the market reflects that — pricing has held, demand is consistent, and the lifestyle premium is real. Sellers who approach the market with accurate pricing and strong presentation are still finding motivated buyers. For buyers, the current environment offers more inventory and more negotiating room than the market has provided in years — particularly at the upper end — making this a rare window of opportunity in a market that rarely gives much ground.
