Inventory sits at 4.5 months of supply — balanced by the 3-to-6-month balanced benchmark, and 26% of listed homes are already under contract. Prices are up 0.7% versus the prior year and sellers are still collecting 90.6% of asking. Taken together, the data points to a broadly balanced market where preparation decides who wins.

What It Means

Who has leverage right now

BUYER'S SELLER'S 47
Momentum Score
Buyer leverage53
Seller leverage47

Leverage scores are derived from the Momentum Score (supply, demand, speed, pricing power, and trend). Right now the data favors neither side decisively.

Momentum Outlook
  • Prices — balanced supply argues for a sideways market; condition and pricing decide individual outcomes.
  • Inventory — tightening over the tracked window; watch whether that holds through the season.
  • Negotiating power — buyers gain ground as 26% of inventory sits under contract.
  • Mortgage sensitivity — at 5.8× income, this market is highly sensitive to rate moves; rate relief tends to show up in demand here quickly.

Derived from current 33401 data, not a prediction or guarantee. Markets move; talk to an agent before acting on any single reading.

The calls we’re making from today’s data

Biggest move
President Country Club 4 ▲ 45%

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: 5.2 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 33401 right now.

Biggest opportunity
$750K+: 2.8 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

Both sides have a case: buyers should negotiate on days-on-market, sellers should lean on the under-contract rate. Preparation, not the market, decides who wins a balanced tape.

Plain Answers

The questions people actually ask

Should I buy a house in 33401 right now?

The data says conditions currently favor neither side decisively in 33401 — the Momentum Score reads 47/100 with 4.5 months of supply. For buyers that means preparation over hesitation: well-priced homes still move fast, but there is more room to negotiate than a year ago. The right timing always depends on your rate, your equity, and how long you plan to stay — not just the market.

Is 33401 becoming more affordable?

No — the median sale price in 33401 is $412,000, up 0.7% versus the prior year, while sellers still capture 90.6% of asking price. Rising prices mean waiting has a cost; affordability hinges mostly on your rate.

Where are prices falling fastest in 33401?

Among tracked communities with enough sales to measure, the sharpest 1-year median declines are Gramercy Park (-27%); Plaza Of The Palm Beaches Condo (-22%); Courtyards In Cityplace Condo (-19%). Note that community-level medians move on small sale counts — a few high- or low-end closings can swing them — so treat these as leads for a comp analysis, not verdicts.

Which 33401 neighborhoods are most competitive?

Measured by speed of sale, the fastest-moving tracked communities right now are North Palm Bch 4 (8 days); Sabal Lakes (14 days); The Southend (14 days) — homes there go under contract well ahead of the market-wide pace of 62 days.
