Woodbridge closed out a busy mid-April stretch today with five sales in the past seven days, and three of those five closings came in at or above the original list price. That’s a useful signal as we move deeper into the spring market in Irvine – well-prepared Woodbridge listings are still finding competitive bidders across both the attached-condo and detached single-family segments.

What Changed in Woodbridge Today
- 16 Driftwood #24 closed today at $1,200,000 – $40,000 over the list price – after just 3 days on market. Another one of mine.
- 3 of the 5 Woodbridge closings in the past 7 days sold at or above original list price, signaling continued buyer competition on well-priced homes.
- Only one Coming Soon listing is currently in the pipeline (8 Firebird #78), pointing to tight near-term inventory behind the active set.
- Active inventory is weighted toward attached product: 34 active listings, of which just 9 are truly detached single-family homes (SFR/D).
- Average days on market for active listings sits at 42.6, while the three recent above-ask closings all wrapped up in a week or less.
Notable Woodbridge Listing Activity
Here are a few listings or market movements that stand out today in Woodbridge:
- 16 Driftwood #24: Closed today at $1,200,000 (list $1,160,000) in 3 days. Listed by me. A 2-bed/2-bath attached condo in the Townhomes tract.
- 13 Shooting Star: Closed 4/14 at $2,100,000 (list $1,975,000) in 3 days – a detached single-family home in Creekside. Listed by me.
- 7 E. Yale Loop: Closed 4/10 at $1,679,000 on a list of $1,599,000, 7 days on market – an attached condo in the Estates subdivision.
- 8 Firebird #78: The lone Coming Soon listing in Woodbridge at $999,990 – a 2-bed/2-bath, 990 sqft attached condo in Fairfield.
- 117 E. Yale: Freshly listed at $1,250,000 – a 3-bed/3-bath, 2,080 sqft attached home in the Townhomes tract.
The pattern in today’s data is the dispersion in days on market. Homes that hit the market clean and priced to current comps are transacting quickly and at or above ask, while some listings that have been out longer are closing under original list. Two recent closings hit in 3 days, while one Yale Loop condo needed 52 days and ultimately closed $50,000 below list. Presentation and pricing discipline continue to drive the outcome.
Additional Active Listings of Mine in Woodbridge
Beyond the two Woodbridge closings above, I also have three active listings currently on the market: 18 Bayfield in South Lake Villas (SFR/D, $1,680,000, 4/3, 1,875 sqft), 19 Waterway #9 in Lakeshore (attached condo, $1,950,000, 4/3, 2,760 sqft), and 30 Waterway #43 in Lakeshore (attached townhouse, $1,650,000, 2/2, 1,947 sqft). The Waterway properties both offer that prized South Lake access that Woodbridge buyers continue to pay a premium for.
What This Means for Buyers
- Well-priced homes are still going quickly – the three fastest recent closings all wrapped in 7 days or fewer, and two closed over list. Expect competition on clean, move-in-ready listings.
- Detached inventory remains scarce – only 9 of 34 active Woodbridge listings are truly detached single-family homes (SFR/D). If that’s your target, be ready to move when one surfaces.
- There is still negotiating room on longer-marketed listings. A handful of active listings now carry DOM well above the 42.6-day average, which typically opens the door to a conversation on price or terms.
What This Means for Sellers
- Buyers are rewarding correct pricing and clean presentation – three of five recent Woodbridge closings hit at or above list, and two closed in 3 days. Overpricing, on the other hand, shows up clearly in the DOM data.
- Supply is manageable but not tight: 34 active listings plus 14 in Pending or Active Under Contract status. Yours needs to stand out on pricing, condition, and presentation to command a premium.
- Detached single-family sellers have a real edge right now – only 9 detached homes are active in Woodbridge, against broader buyer demand for that product type.
Bottom Line
Mid-April in Woodbridge looks healthy and selective. Five closings in the past week, three at or above original list, and a thin Coming Soon pipeline point to a market where the right home at the right price still commands attention – and where homes that miss on price or presentation show up clearly in the DOM numbers.
Woodbridge Real Estate FAQ
Is now a good time to sell a home in Woodbridge?
Based on today’s data, yes – for correctly priced, well-presented homes. Three of the five Woodbridge closings in the past seven days sold at or above original list price, and two closed in just 3 days on market. That said, longer-marketed listings are still settling under list, so pricing and preparation matter more than ever. In my experience in Woodbridge, the sellers who invest in presentation and price to current comps tend to see multiple offers in the first week.
What is the difference between inside and outside the Loop in Woodbridge?
Woodbridge is organized around Yale Loop, which encircles the core of the community. Homes inside the Loop tend to sit closer to the lakes, the Village Center, and the main HOA amenities, and often trade at a premium per square foot. Outside the Loop, you’ll find larger tracts, more of the detached single-family product (including the SFR/D homes in areas like Creekside, South Lake Villas, and Park Homes), and sometimes more yard space for the dollar. Outside the Loop homes usually have more traffic noise than ones Inside the Loop, as they’re close to the borders fo Woodbridge, which are these busy streets: Irvine Center Drive, Jeffrey Road, 405 freeway and Culver Drive.
How quickly can a home sell in Woodbridge Irvine?
Very quickly when priced and presented well. Two of the five recent Woodbridge closings went from listed to closed in 3 days on market at above-ask pricing, my lidtings. The average DOM for currently active listings is 42.6 days, which shows a wide spread – some homes move almost immediately, while others linger when pricing or condition is off. Getting those two right is usually the difference between a 7-day sale and a 60-day grind.
