The Jacksonville housing market, by the numbers.

The honest version of the 2026 market.

Jacksonville housing in 2026 sits in a slower, longer-tail phase compared to the post-COVID frenzy of 2021-2022. The headline number to remember: 96.73% sold-to-list ratio across the broader Northeast Florida market, with average days on market at 72. That ratio sounds bad after three years of houses going for over asking, but historically it's roughly normal. A balanced market has typically run 95-97% sold-to-list. We are not in a crash. We are in a market where well-priced homes still move and overpriced homes sit.

The disconnect most buyers and sellers feel comes from comparing today to 2021. Houses are not selling in two days with 12 offers anymore. They take longer, they negotiate more, and the homes that are not move-in ready are getting price reductions. That looks like a "slow" market if your reference point is 2021. It looks like a normal market if your reference point is 2017.

Inventory has rebuilt to levels closer to historical norms, though it remains thin in specific submarkets (San Marco, Avondale, Riverside) and in specific price bands. New construction continues to be a meaningful share of inventory, particularly in Nocatee, RiverTown, eTown, and the World Golf Village corridor, which keeps a lid on resale appreciation in those submarkets specifically.

How the market splits by submarket.

"The Jacksonville market" is actually a dozen different markets that often move in different directions in the same quarter. Below is a summary of how each major submarket is performing year-to-date 2026, sourced from RealMLS reports.

How Momentum agents move homes differently.

Across the same RealMLS dataset that produces the market averages above, Momentum Realty's agents posted measurably different results in 2025. Same listings, same buyers, same inventory pool, same interest rates. Different agents, different result.

For a seller, that 1.25% delta translates to more money in your pocket on closing day. On a $500,000 home, it is roughly $6,250 more than the market average. The 8-day-faster close translates to less carry cost, less mortgage interest accrued, fewer weeks the home sits exposed.
