Inventory sits at 2.7 months of supply — tight by the 3-to-6-month balanced benchmark, and 32% of listed homes are already under contract. Prices are up 3.3% versus the prior year and sellers are still collecting 95.2% of asking. Taken together, the data points to a seller-leaning market.

What It Means

Who has leverage right now

BUYER'S SELLER'S 67
Momentum Score
Buyer leverage33
Seller leverage67

Leverage scores are derived from the Momentum Score (supply, demand, speed, pricing power, and trend). Right now the data favors sellers.

Momentum Outlook
  • Prices — pressure remains upward while supply stays this thin.
  • Inventory — tightening over the tracked window; watch whether that holds through the season.
  • Negotiating power — sellers hold the leverage while 32% of inventory sits under contract.
  • Mortgage sensitivity — at 4.0× income, this market is moderately sensitive to rate moves; rate relief tends to show up in demand here gradually.

The calls we’re making from today’s data

Biggest move
Villa Venyce ▼ 20%

The sharpest 1-yr median swing among tracked communities. Thin samples can exaggerate swings — verify with a comp analysis before treating it as trend.

Biggest risk buyers are ignoring
Under $300K: 3.9 months of supply

The most crowded shelf in the market. Sellers here are competing hardest — which means overpaying in this band is the most avoidable mistake in 32563 right now.

Biggest opportunity
$300K–$500K: 1.3 months of supply

The tightest band — sellers in this range hold the most leverage, and buyers should walk in with financing done and terms clean.

What we’re telling clients today

Sellers: price to the last 60 days of comps, not the peak — well-prepared listings are still commanding strong terms. Buyers: get underwritten now so you can move when the right house hits.
