How these figures are made: closed home sales on the CRMLS MLS in the city of Rancho Santa Margarita since January 2012 (single-family homes, condos, townhomes and other residential types; leases left out). A home filed twice on the MLS counts once. Prices are medians, not averages. Days on market and the sale to original list price are the MLS figures at closing; a relisted home is left out of the list price ratio. Homes for sale now counts live residential listings. Updated daily.
