Inventory sits at 5.7 months of supply — balanced by the 3-to-6-month balanced benchmark, and 22% of listed homes are already under contract. Prices are up 3.2% versus the prior year and sellers are still collecting 91.7% of asking. Taken together, the data leans toward buyers — leverage is real for those ready to use it.

What It Means

Who has leverage right now

BUYER'S SELLER'S 42
Momentum Score
Buyer leverage58
Seller leverage42

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

Momentum Outlook
  • Prices — balanced supply argues for a sideways market; condition and pricing decide individual outcomes.
  • Inventory — building over the tracked window; watch whether that holds through the season.
  • Negotiating power — buyers gain ground as 22% of inventory sits under contract.
  • Mortgage sensitivity — at 5.2× income, this market is highly sensitive to rate moves; rate relief tends to show up in demand here quickly.

The calls we’re making from today’s data

Biggest move
Harbor Oaks Homeowners Cooperative Sub ▼ 3%

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
$300K–$500K: 6.8 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 34731 right now.

Biggest opportunity
Under $300K: 3.8 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

Buyers: ask for concessions — rate buydowns and repair credits are back on the table. Sellers: presentation and the first two weekends decide your outcome; price accordingly.

Plain Answers

The questions people actually ask

Should I buy a house in 34731 right now?

The data says conditions currently favor buyers in 34731 — the Momentum Score reads 42/100 with 5.7 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 34731 becoming more affordable?

No — the median sale price in 34731 is $295,990, up 3.2% versus the prior year, while sellers still capture 91.7% of asking price. Rising prices mean waiting has a cost; affordability hinges mostly on your rate.

Where are prices falling fastest in 34731?

Among tracked communities with enough sales to measure, the sharpest 1-year median declines are Harbor Oaks Homeowners Cooperative Sub (-3%); Mirror Lake Village (-2%). 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 34731 neighborhoods are most competitive?

Measured by speed of sale, the fastest-moving tracked communities right now are Harbor Oaks Homeowners Cooperative Sub (119 days); Mirror Lake Village (202 days) — homes there go under contract well ahead of the market-wide pace of 79 days.
