2 homes closed in Peninsula Point in October 2026, too few for a reliable monthly median, so this update leans on the three months from August through October. Over those three months, 8 homes sold at a median price of $4,525,000.

Over the three months, the typical home sold in 11 days at 96.7% of its final asking price. Buyers had real room to negotiate below asking.

Sales totaled $8.65M in October, against $10.8M in October 2025.

For context, the median across all of Newport Beach was $4,112,500 in October, so Peninsula Point ran 10% above the city as a whole.

What It Means

For buyers. You have leverage. Homes are taking longer to sell and closing below asking, so there is room to negotiate on price, credits and terms, especially on homes that have sat.

For sellers. Price from the recent sales, not the hoped-for number. Homes that start too high tend to sit and sell for less after price cuts.

The Year in Peninsula Point

An illustration only, not an offer of credit or a loan estimate. It assumes the 7.24% average 30-year fixed rate from the Freddie Mac Primary Mortgage Market Survey for October 29, 2026; jumbo loans, points, credit and down payment change the actual rate and APR. Property tax and insurance are estimates, and HOA dues and Mello-Roos taxes are not included. Many lenders allow a higher share of income for housing, and a larger down payment lowers the income needed.

Closed sales of single-family homes, condos and townhomes recorded in CRMLS, as of 2026-11-13. Sale-to-list compares each sale price with the final asking price. Figures are deemed reliable but not guaranteed.
