This is the Oak Park Q2 2026 quarterly market data page - May 2026 snapshot of price, days on market, list-to-sale, inventory, and closed sales, broken out by sub-neighborhood and price band. I am Brian Cooper, REALTOR at eXp Realty (DRE# 01434286), and I pull these monthly from the CSMAR MLS. Oak Park is a small unincorporated community in eastern Ventura County, served by Oak Park Unified School District - one of the highest-rated districts in the state. The school district is the single strongest demand driver here and shows up clearly in the boundary-driven price premium.
Headline numbers (Q2 2026)
May 2026 snapshot for the Oak Park detached single-family market. Pulled from CSMAR MLS on the first business day of the month. ZIP 91377. Single-family detached only; townhomes (a meaningful share of inventory along Lindero Canyon) are tracked separately. Oak Park is unincorporated Ventura County but functionally operates as its own community defined by Oak Park Unified School District boundaries.
The $1.35M median is up 4.2% year-over-year - the strongest appreciation rate of any Conejo-area community, driven directly by the OPUSD school boundary premium. DOM at 22 days and LTS at 99.0% put Oak Park firmly in a seller's market. Inventory is up 18% year-over-year but the school-calendar buyer pool absorbs new listings quickly through Q2.
| Metric | May 2026 value | vs May 2025 |
|---|---|---|
| Median sale price (SFR) | $1,350,000 | +4.2% |
| Median days on market | 22 | +2 days |
| List-to-sale ratio | 99.0% | -0.2 pts |
| Active inventory (SFR) | 38 | +18% |
| Closed sales (trailing 90 days) | 86 | +8% |
| Months of supply | 1.3 | +0.2 |
| New listings (May) | 32 | +10% |
| Price per sqft (median) | $535 | +3.5% |
Inventory and supply
Active inventory in Oak Park is 38 detached homes at the May snapshot, up 18% year-over-year. The increase is concentrated in the $1.4M-$1.7M Morrison Highlands and Sutton Valley resale band. Entry-level under $1.2M inventory (mostly older central Oak Park homes near Lindero Canyon Road) is barely changed. Months of supply runs 1.3 citywide - tight seller's market.
Above $1.8M, supply runs roughly 2.5 months - still favoring sellers but giving buyers some room to evaluate. The luxury slice (above $2M) is small - Oak Park does not have the gated estate inventory that Calabasas or Westlake carry, so even the top of the market here is anchored in family-buyer profile homes on larger lots in Oak Park Estates and the Sutton Valley hillside.
New listings in May totaled 32, up 10% from May 2025. Oak Park Unified school calendar drives buyer urgency through Q2 - families want to close before the August school year start. After mid-July, urgency drops sharply and the back half of the year has noticeably softer absorption.
Days on market trend
22-day median DOM is two days slower than May 2025 - well within normal Q2 seasonal range. Oak Park DOM follows a sharp seasonal curve driven by the school calendar: fastest March-June (16-22 days), slowing through July-October (28-40 days), longest November-January (40-60 days). The Q2 window is the highest-velocity period of the year by a wider margin here than in most regional cities.
By price band: under $1.2M is moving in 16 days. $1.3M-$1.5M at 21 days. Above $1.8M, DOM extends to 38+ days. The $1.5M-$1.8M band is where most Morrison Highlands and Sutton Valley family buyers concentrate and where pricing discipline matters most.
| Price band | Median DOM | Sample size (90 days) |
|---|---|---|
| Under $1.2M | 16 | 18 |
| $1.2M - $1.4M | 20 | 28 |
| $1.4M - $1.6M | 24 | 20 |
| $1.6M - $1.9M | 30 | 12 |
| $1.9M+ | 48 | 8 |
By-neighborhood breakdown
Oak Park divides into several sub-areas with distinct characters. Oak Park Estates (the upper Sutton Valley hillside) carries the highest median at $1.85M - larger lots, view homes, custom builds. Sutton Valley proper sits at $1.55M. Morrison Highlands at $1.42M anchors the core family-buyer market. The older central Oak Park tracts near Lindero Canyon Road run lower at $1.18M-$1.25M, often representing value buys in need of cosmetic refresh.
The OPUSD boundary covers the entire community - every Oak Park home is in-boundary for OPUSD, which is why the school-premium effect is uniform across the city rather than concentrated in specific tracts. What varies by sub-area is lot size, build year, and view, which drives the median spread above and below the citywide $1.35M figure.
| Sub-area | Median price | Median DOM | Active |
|---|---|---|---|
| Oak Park Estates | $1,850,000 | 35 | 8 |
| Sutton Valley | $1,550,000 | 26 | 10 |
| Morrison Highlands | $1,420,000 | 21 | 9 |
| Bridle Path Oak Park | $1,380,000 | 22 | 5 |
| Central Oak Park | $1,180,000 | 18 | 6 |
By-price-band breakdown
The $1.2M-$1.6M bands together represent 56% of trailing-90-day closings. That is the heart of the Oak Park family-buyer market - Morrison Highlands, Sutton Valley, and Bridle Path. Above $1.9M is a smaller slice anchored in Oak Park Estates view homes. Below $1.2M is mostly older central Oak Park homes in need of updating.
Buyers in the $1.9M+ band have some leverage - LTS at that level runs 97% with concessions averaging 2-3% off original list. Sellers under $1.4M are in the strongest position; well-presented Morrison Highlands and Bridle Path homes routinely see multiple offers in 14-21 days.
| Price band | Closings (90d) | % of total | Median LTS |
|---|---|---|---|
| Under $1.2M | 18 | 20.9% | 99.6% |
| $1.2M - $1.4M | 28 | 32.6% | 99.2% |
| $1.4M - $1.6M | 20 | 23.3% | 98.8% |
| $1.6M - $1.9M | 12 | 14.0% | 98.0% |
| $1.9M+ | 8 | 9.3% | 97.0% |
Buyer takeaway
For Oak Park buyers in Q2 2026, the playbook is school-driven and calendar-driven. Under $1.5M: tight market, clean pre-approval, ready to decide in 48 hours, expect to offer at or near ask. $1.5M-$1.8M: balanced; full inspection and reasonable credits are on the table. Above $1.9M: some buyer leverage and time to evaluate. The Q2 window compresses everything - if school is your driver, plan to be in contract by early July to close before the August OPUSD school year start.
Oak Park Unified is the single strongest demand driver. The district consistently ranks in the top 1-2% of California public school districts on standardized measures. Every home in Oak Park is in-boundary, which means the school premium does not vary by tract - it applies uniformly. Verify OPUSD enrollment process on the district website. This is public-data amenity analysis only.
Seller takeaway
Sellers in Oak Park face the most school-calendar-driven market in the region. List between mid-March and mid-June for maximum buyer-pool attention. Pricing discipline matters; the OPUSD-driven buyer pool is knowledgeable about the comp set and overpriced launches get tagged fast. Pre-listing inspection and professional photography are baseline expectations rather than premium add-ons in this market.
Price-reduced Oak Park listings sold for 96.8% of original list on average in May - 3.2% penalty for missing the launch price. The most expensive mistake is listing too high in Q2 to test the market, then reducing in July when buyer urgency has dropped. By the time the reduction hits, the calendar has worked against you.

Oak Park Unified consistently ranks in the top 1-2% of California public school districts on standardized measures. GreatSchools scores for Oak Park schools (Oak Hills Elementary, Brookside Elementary, Medea Creek Middle, Oak Park High) sit at 9-10/10. The district premium drives roughly $200K-$300K of the Oak Park home median over otherwise-comparable inventory in adjacent non-OPUSD areas.
Is Oak Park a buyer's or seller's market right now?

The strongest tier is under $1.5M where well-presented homes routinely see multiple offers in 14-21 days. Above $1.9M shifts toward more balance but still favors sellers overall. The school-calendar Q2 window is the most active selling period.
Does Oak Park have an HOA?
Most Oak Park sub-areas (Morrison Highlands, Sutton Valley, Bridle Path, Oak Park Estates) have HOAs with varying dues and scope. Dues typically range from $80-$250/month for tract HOAs and higher for the gated communities. The HOAs maintain common areas, trails, and in some cases recreational facilities. Verify the specific HOA for any individual address.
