★ Momentum Forecast
St. Johns remains the region's price leader, but it is not immune to the regional inventory build and the sharp April drop in pending sales. With new construction a large share of supply and rates elevated, expect price growth to cool from its recent pace through 2026, toward flat-to-low-single-digit movement, with resale strongest in the top school zones and builder incentives doing more of the work in the newer sections. April's jump in the median reflects sales mix as much as underlying momentum, so read it alongside the rising inventory.
