The Long Beach, NY condo and townhouse market is absolutely buzzing this October 2025. Honestly, it's like a tug-of-war right now, but with some seriously good news for both folks looking to buy and those looking to sell!

On the one hand, buyers have way more to look at—inventory has shot up a massive 53% compared to last year. That’s huge! Supply is getting closer to normal (it’s at 4.96 months now), so you finally have some breathing room and more options. But here's the kicker: everything that hits the market is getting snatched up fast. The median price that condos are actually selling for just jumped to $900,000 (up 11% in just a month!), and properties are flying off the shelves in a blistering 23 days—that’s almost three times faster than before! This tells us that even with more choices, only the best Long Beach condos are selling quickly and netting those high prices. If you want to snag one in that sweet spot between $849,500 and $925,000, you can’t go it alone.

So, what does this mean for your game plan?

For Long Beach condo buyers, you need to be lightning-fast and financially locked in. There are 48 active listings out there right now—a great window—but since places are selling in barely three weeks, you have zero time to waste. Get a solid pre-approval from your lender, not just a casual chat! You need to be ready to tour anything interesting and submit a killer offer within 48 hours of it being listed.

 

For Long Beach sellers, this is your moment to shine! The market is practically begging for your property, and that $900,000 median sold price proves the demand is real. But remember, inventory is climbing, so you can’t get greedy. You have to price your unit perfectly around that benchmark and make it look incredible. If your condo sits around longer than that 23-day median, buyers will know something’s up. Time to invest in staging and professional photos to make sure your place is the one that sells fast!
