Selling a house in Deane Homes, Mission Viejo? I'm Darren Shepherd, a Mission Viejo listing agent, and this guide uses 12 months of closed sales to show what Deane Homes houses sold for, how they compare with single-family homes across the city, how fast they sold, and what the swim club and Lake Mission Viejo fields on a listing do and don't tell you.
Every figure comes from CRMLS, the regional multiple listing service: residential sales with City = Mission Viejo that closed in the last 12 months in the CRMLS tract Deane Homes (DE). That tract is the definition of Deane Homes in this guide. For the whole city, see our Mission Viejo home prices report; for other areas, our Mission Viejo neighborhood pages.
What this guide does not cover: Deane Homes houses for sale right now (the CRMLS pull has closed sales only), buying a home, and tax or legal advice (ask a CPA or attorney).
What have Deane Homes sold for in the last 12 months?
$1,475,000 was the median sale price across the 19 Deane Homes sales in the last 12 months, at $707 per square foot and 17 days on market (CRMLS, closed Oct 19, 2025 to Oct 18, 2026). All 19 were single-family homes. The median sale closed at 100.0% of its final list price, and 10 of the 19 closed at or above list.
- Price range: $1,250,000 to $2,000,000.
- Timing: 17 closed in 2026 (Jan 1 to Oct 18), and 2 in late 2025.
- Home size: median 2,115 square feet; the homes were built from 1965 to 1969.
- All Mission Viejo single-family homes, same 12 months: 740 sales, median $1,330,000, $674 per square foot, 16 days on market, median 1,940 square feet.
In this data, Deane Homes sold above the citywide single-family median on price, on larger homes, and at a higher price per square foot.
Which sales count as Deane Homes in this guide?
19 sales count: every Mission Viejo sale in the last 12 months whose CRMLS tract field reads Deane Homes (DE) (CRMLS, closed Oct 19, 2025 to Oct 18, 2026).
- Not counted: 3 sales that name the Mission Viejo Swim and Racquet Club in an association field but have a blank tract field. Without a tract, they can't be placed in Deane Homes from the listing alone, so they are left out rather than mixed in.
- No other tract in Mission Viejo carries the Deane name in this data.
If your home's listing history shows a blank tract, your comparables still start with the sales most like your home, and those may include Deane Homes sales.
How do Deane Homes compare by bedrooms, stories and pool?
$723 per square foot was the median for the 11 four-bedroom Deane Homes sales, the largest group in the tract (CRMLS, closed Oct 19, 2025 to Oct 18, 2026). By bedrooms, stories and pool:
- 4 bedrooms: 11 sales, median $1,475,000, $723 per square foot, 12 days on market, median 2,144 square feet.
- 3 bedrooms: 5 sales; 5 bedrooms: 3 sales (too few for a median).
- Stories, as entered in CRMLS: 5 single-story, 5 two-story, 5 three or more levels and 4 multi-level or split-level (each too few for a median).
- With a private pool: 7 sales (too few for a median).
Deane Homes sales split across 4 story types, so the sales closest to your own floor plan matter more than the tract median.
How fast do Deane Homes sell?
17 days was the median time on market for a Deane Homes sale, against 16 days for Mission Viejo single-family homes as a whole (CRMLS, closed Oct 19, 2025 to Oct 18, 2026).
- Sold within 7 days on market: 4 sales.
- Sold within 30 days on market: 15 sales.
- On market more than 90 days: none; the longest was 45 days.
- Sale price vs original list price: median 99.7%.
What do the swim club and Lake Mission Viejo mean for a Deane Homes sale?
18 of the 19 Deane Homes listings name the Mission Viejo Swim and Racquet Club in an association field, and the other 1 names no association (CRMLS, closed Oct 19, 2025 to Oct 18, 2026). 7 of those 18 also name Lake Mission Viejo in a second association field.
What the club says about itself (Mission Viejo Swim and Racquet Club, community home page):
- Also known as the Deane Club: it calls itself a private residential community of 736 homes, just east of the I-5 freeway and north of La Paz Road.
- Amenities it lists: a heated pool, a Jacuzzi, two tennis courts with lights, a weight room and a clubhouse that members of the Deane tract can rent.
- Documents: its rules and regulations, CC&Rs and bylaws are posted in the Club Documents section of its site.
On the 18 listings that name the club, the first association fee field works out to a median of $51 a month (CRMLS, closed Oct 19, 2025 to Oct 18, 2026). Listing agents type these fees in by hand, so ask the club for the current amount.
Lake Mission Viejo membership is a separate question, settled by address. The Lake Mission Viejo Association's own rule (Lake Mission Viejo Association, eligible membership homes):
- Older homes may be Lake Eligible: homes the Mission Viejo Company built inside the planned community before the association was formed are Lake Eligible Homes, and their owners were invited, but not required, to join.
- Not automatic: the association says not all homes built before 1978 are Lake eligible.
- It stays with the house: once a property becomes a member, membership stays with the home and transfers to the new owner at sale.
Every Deane Homes sale here was built from 1965 to 1969, before 1978, so check your own address with the association's Membership Office before you list.
Source for every figure in these 5 sections: CRMLS, closed Oct 19, 2025 to Oct 18, 2026, City = Mission Viejo. Deane Homes = the CRMLS tract Deane Homes (DE); sales with a blank tract field are not counted, even when they name the swim club. Price per square foot is each sale's close price divided by its living area; the figure shown is the median. The fee is the monthly equivalent of the first association fee field. Stories are the CRMLS Levels field; days on market is CRMLS DOM. Groups under 8 sales show a count only.
Want a free CMA for your Deane Homes house?
A tract median can't price one house, especially in a tract where the 19 sales split across 4 story types. A comparative market analysis (CMA) can: I match your home to the Deane Homes sales closest to it in bedrooms, size, levels and pool, adjust for condition and updates, and give you my recommended list price in writing, with the reasoning. Free, with no obligation to list.

What should a Deane Homes seller check before listing?
5 checks come first for a Deane Homes house, since every recent sale was a single-family home built from 1965 to 1969.
- Systems. On a house from the mid-1960s, expect the buyer's inspector to look closely at the roof, heating and air, electrical panel, plumbing and sewer lateral. A pre-listing inspection lets you repair or disclose on your own timeline. For retrofit rules that can apply to older homes, see our guide to selling a Mission Viejo home built before 1994.
- Permits. Confirm the City of Mission Viejo has permits on file for any addition, garage conversion, patio cover or pool.
- Your comparables. Write down your bedrooms, square footage, levels and pool status. With 4 story types in 19 sales, a match on levels narrows the set fast.
- Swim club documents. Ask the Mission Viejo Swim and Racquet Club early which documents and fees apply when you sell, so they are ready when you open escrow.
- Lake status. Ask the Lake Mission Viejo Association's Membership Office whether your address is a member, eligible or neither, and put a member home's status in the listing from day one.
How do I price my Deane Homes house?
3 steps turn the Deane Homes figures above into a list price for one address.
- Match bedrooms, size and levels first. Start with closed Deane Homes sales that share your bedroom count and floor plan type and are close to your square footage.

- Get it in writing. My written comparative market analysis uses the Deane Homes sales most like yours, shows each adjustment and explains the list price I recommend.
