What homes actually sold for in Glendale
Every number here comes off a real closing, not an estimate. Including the one most owners get wrong: when to go live.
The median home in Glendale sold for $1,240,000 over the last 90 days. Half sold for more, half sold for less. That is 170 real closings, not an estimate.
Last updated October 4, 2026 · recalculated weekly
The average home in Glendale sold for $1,334,363 over the last 12 months, and the median sold for $1,250,000. Use the median. A small number of very expensive sales pull an average upward, so the average describes the top of the market rather than a normal house. Both figures come from 682 closed sales from the California Regional MLS, through October 4, 2026.

Right now against this time last year
In the last 90 days, 170 homes sold in Glendale at a median of $1,240,000. In the same 90 days a year earlier, 171 sold at a median of $1,200,000.
About the same number of homes closed in both windows. That is close enough to call flat. A gap that small comes from which homes happened to sell, not from the market changing. Flat does not mean nothing is happening here. It means the market will not make this decision for you, so how you price and present your house will.
The past 12 months
The lowest sale closed at $324,999. The highest closed at $4,000,000. Glendale is not one market. Homes at the bottom of that range and homes at the top are priced by completely different rules, and the citywide number sits somewhere in between.
How that compares to the year before
In the 12 months before this one, 613 homes sold in Glendale at a median of $1,215,000.
In the last 12 months, 11.3% more homes changed hands, and the median price went up 2.9%.
Price per square foot moved the same way. It went from $712 to $721, up 1.3%.
A move that small is not the market repricing itself. It can come from which homes happened to sell. Read it as flat and look at your own street instead.
Either way, the citywide number is not your number. Your street, your lot, and the condition of your house move your price more than an area median does. If you want the number for your address instead of a whole city, have your home run against these same closed sales.
How long homes take to sell in Glendale
The typical home that sold here in the last 12 months went under contract in 15 days. That is the median across 690 closed sales that carried a days on market figure.
Read that as how fast a correctly priced home finds a buyer here, not as a promise about your home specifically. A home priced at the market tends to move at roughly this pace. One priced ahead of it does not.
A year ago the median was 14 days, so the pace has held about steady. Steady means the calendar is not doing the work for you here. Pricing and presentation are.
One thing to know about this number. The clock counts from the day a listing goes live to the day it goes into contract, and it restarts if a listing is pulled and put back up. So a home that sat, came off, and went back on looks newer than it was. This figure runs a little low for that reason, not a little high.
What homes sold for against what they asked
The typical home in Glendale sold for 100.0% of its asking price, across 690 closed sales over the last 12 months.
60% of sales closed at or above the asking price. The other 40% closed below it.
A year ago the median was 100.3%, which is effectively the same.
Half of the homes here sold for at least what they asked. When that is true, a fair asking price tends to get met rather than negotiated down.
Homes for sale in Glendale, Los Angeles County right now
Glendale real estate today: 205 listings are on the market. At the rate homes have sold here over the past year, that is about 3.6 months of supply.
Three to six months is the balanced range. There is enough for sale to give buyers a choice, and not so much that a fairly priced home gets lost.
How to read this. The count of homes for sale is today's number. The selling rate behind it is the average of the last 12 months. Mixing a live count with a trailing rate is the standard way this is measured, and it means a sudden change in either one shows up here before it shows up anywhere else.

Glendale zip codes
Glendale, California uses 9 zip codes: 91206, 91208, 91202, 91205, 91207, 91201, 91203, 91204 and 91210.
Those are the zips Glendale homes actually close under when they sell. A zip boundary and a city boundary are not the same line, so a handful of addresses near the edge carry a neighbouring city's zip on their mail.
91206 · 91208 · 91202 · 91205 · 91207 · 91201 · 91203 · 91204 · 91210 — what homes sold for in each.
What these numbers say about selling in Glendale
Read together, these favor a seller right now, and there is no reason to be coy about it. 3.6 months of supply, homes closing at 100.0% of asking, 60% of sales at or over the asking price and a median of 15 days to go under contract. Those point the same direction.
That is not a promise about your house and it is not a reason to rush. It is the backdrop you would be selling into. A seller's market rewards a home that is ready and priced at the market. It does not rescue one that is priced above it.
The best time to list in Glendale
Closings in Glendale run heaviest from April through August. July is the single busiest month, running 17% above a normal month. The quiet stretch is December through February, and January runs 42% below.
We split the record in half and checked each year on its own. The same shape turned up both times. That is what separates a pattern from one odd year.
Work backward and you get your answer. Escrow alone runs about 30 to 45 days. Add the weeks a house sits before an offer shows up, and a home that closes at the front of that busy stretch went live around February. That is the target, not the closing date. That window already passed for this year. The next one is about 4 months out.
What this does not say. It does not say you get a higher price in spring. We checked that separately and it is not in the data. Median price by month swings on which houses happened to sell, not on the season. Across these cities February averaged $1.6 million in one year and $1.33 million in the next. Same month, a swing that size, entirely from the mix of homes that closed. What the calendar actually changes is how many buyers are out looking. More buyers means more competition for your house. That is the whole edge, and it is enough.

26% of the homes that came off the market in Glendale over the last 12 months came off without selling. That is 233 homes that expired, were cancelled, or were withdrawn and did not close, against 677 that sold.
Those owners hired someone. They had the photos taken. They held the open houses and kept the place clean for strangers walking through on a Sunday. Then the listing ran out and the house went back to being a house.
This is the number that never makes it into a listing presentation, and it is the one worth staring at. Those homes did not fail because the market was closed. 677 homes sold in that same window in that same city. They failed on the things a seller controls: the price it went up at, how it was shown, and how fast it reacted when the first two weeks came back quiet.
How this is counted, because it is easy to inflate. Each home counts once, no matter how many times it was listed, pulled and relisted. And any home that came off the market but then sold inside the same 12 months is counted as a sale, not a failure. Both of those choices push this number down, not up.
Price per square foot
Homes in Glendale sold for a median of $721 per square foot over the past 12 months. That is across 682 sales where the square footage was recorded.
Price per square foot is a rough tool. A 2,000 square foot house on a flat lot and a 2,000 square foot house with a view do not sell for the same number. Use it to sanity check a price. Do not use it to set one.
Which homes in Glendale have buyers waiting
These are the 681 sales in the past 12 months where the bedroom count was recorded.
| Size | Sales | Share | Median price |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 bedroom | 40 | 6% | $470,500 |
| 2 bedrooms | 221 | 32% | $825,000 |
| 3 bedrooms | 265 | 39% | $1,385,000 |
| 4 bedrooms | 115 | 17% | $1,900,000 |
| 5 or more bedrooms | 40 | 6% | $1,921,500 |
The deepest pool is 3 bedroom homes, at 265 sales in the last 12 months and a median of $1,385,000. If your home sits in that group, more buyers are competing for it, and a fair price tends to find them quickly. If it sits outside that group, the pool is thinner. That does not mean less money. It means the first two weeks matter more, because you are waiting on fewer people to walk through the door.
Sell now, or wait?
Nobody knows where prices go next. Anyone who tells you they do is guessing with a straight face. So here is the part that is actually knowable, and it is enough to decide on.
Waiting moves you around the calendar. Push a spring listing into the December through February stretch and you put your house in front of the smallest group of buyers in the year. The house did not change. The number of people who will walk through it did.
Waiting also runs a meter. Every month you hold, you pay property tax, insurance, upkeep, and whatever is left on the loan. We are not going to print a monthly figure here, because your tax basis depends on when you bought and your loan is nobody's business but yours. You already know roughly what that number is. Multiply it by the months you are thinking about waiting, then ask what the delay buys you.
And sometimes waiting is the right call. If the kitchen is half torn apart, if you cannot move until a lease is up, if two months of work would put your house in front of a different kind of buyer, then wait. A ready house in a quiet month beats an unfinished house in a busy one.
The wrong reason to wait is the common one. Not knowing what the house is worth, so doing nothing. That one is free to fix.

Because escrow runs about 30 to 45 days on top of the time a home spends on the market, a home closing at the front of that stretch generally went live around February. This reflects how many buyers are active, not a higher sale price. Median price by month varies with which homes happen to sell rather than with the season.

Every figure on this page comes from closed sales recorded in the MLS for Glendale, California. We keep our own copy of that record: 111,698 closed sales across Los Angeles and Ventura counties going back to July 26, 2024. 1,295 of them are in this area. We run the math ourselves.
- Closed prices only. What a buyer actually paid. Never an automated estimate.
- Each home counted once. The MLS records a listing side and a buying side for the same sale. We count the house, not the paperwork.
- Thin numbers get left out. If a figure does not have enough sales behind it to mean anything, it is not on this page.
- The read follows the numbers. Every interpretation on this page is picked by what the figures came back as. When they favor buyers, the page says so.
- Time on market, asking price and inventory. Our closed sale archive stores what a home sold for, not what it asked or how long it sat. Those three are counted live across every qualifying listing in this area, and never stored per listing.
