🟡 Balanced market. 2.6 months of supply and 0% of the inventory already under contract put buyers and sellers on roughly even footing.Why it matters: months of supply is how long today's inventory would last at today's sales pace; under-contract share is the portion of homes for sale that already have a buyer.Momentum Research analysis of Beaches MLS records, as of August 10, 2026. Confidence: High (5 active and pending listings, 23 closed sales in 12 months).

The Emerald Lakes buying strategy.
If we were buying in Emerald Lakes today, this is the order of operations we would run for our clients.
Underwrite the condition first. Price the roof, HVAC, and systems honestly before judging any list price; condition swings value here more than square footage alone.
Match the home to real comps. Recent sales of similar condition and lot, not the asking price, tell you what a home is worth.
Move deliberately, not desperately. Neither side has a decisive edge, so a well-prepared, fairly-priced offer wins without overpaying.
Line up financing and inspection early. A pre-approval and an inspection plan let you act fast and negotiate from evidence.
Keep an agent in your corner. The listing agent works for the seller; we represent you and prepare a hand-built valuation before any offer in Emerald Lakes.

Basis: Long-Term Appreciation +257% since 2012; Recent Direction -10.4% year-over-year; Liquidity & Demand 2.6 months of supply; Owner Commitment 69% owner-occupied; Pricing Power 91.3% sale-to-list.
