The market in context

These come from outside sources, not from our MLS records. We keep them separate so you can see where an independent series agrees with ours and where it does not.

Homes for sale and homes going under contract

Both lines are counted from Redfin's county file: active listings, and pending sales, contracts signed that month. Neither is an estimate of buyers. The chart's source line carries the latest month in the file. These figures are Redfin's, not computed from our MLS feeds.

In 2026-07, 4,915 homes were listed for sale across the Pensacola market and 1,028 went under contract. A year earlier the counts were 5,170 and 1,050, so homes for sale are down 4.9% and contracts are down 2.1% over twelve months. When both lines move together, the balance between buyers and sellers holds roughly steady.

What renters are asked to pay

Typical ASKED rent for units listed on Zillow (Zillow Observed Rent Index), by county, monthly. Asking rent is what new listings seek, not what sitting tenants pay; renewals are invisible to it. These figures are Zillow's, not computed from our MLS feeds.

Santa Rosa asks $1,981, +2.6% in a year and 54% above 2019 levels. Escambia asks $1,678, +2.8% in a year and 57% above 2019 levels. Asking rent describes new listings, not renewals, so a flat or falling line here reaches sitting tenants slowly and shows up first in concessions on new leases.
