Inventory sits at 3.8 months of supply — balanced by the 3-to-6-month balanced benchmark, and 35% of listed homes are already under contract. Prices are down 2.6% versus the prior year, but sellers are still collecting 95.4% 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 61
Momentum Score
Buyer leverage39
Seller leverage61

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

Momentum Outlook
  • Prices — more likely to stabilize than fall sharply. Supply remains below balanced levels even as prices soften; without a meaningful inventory build, further declines tend to be shallow.
  • Inventory — tightening over the tracked window; watch whether that holds through the season.
  • Negotiating power — sellers hold the leverage while 35% of inventory sits under contract.
  • Mortgage sensitivity — at 4.3× income, this market is moderately sensitive to rate moves; rate relief tends to show up in demand here quickly.

Derived from current Duval County 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
Holiday Harbor ▼ 51%

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: 3.7 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 Duval County right now.

Biggest opportunity
$500K–$750K: 2.4 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.

Plain Answers

The questions people actually ask

Should I buy a house in Duval County right now?

The data says conditions currently favor neither side decisively in Duval County — the Momentum Score reads 61/100 with 3.8 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 Duval County becoming more affordable?

Yes, modestly — the median sale price in Duval County is $312,000, down 2.6% versus the prior year, while sellers still capture 95.4% of asking price. Softening prices plus normal-length marketing times mean affordability is improving at the margin, though financing costs matter more than list prices for most monthly payments.

Where are prices falling fastest in Duval County?

Among tracked communities with enough sales to measure, the sharpest 1-year median declines are Holiday Harbor (-51%); Riverhills Park (-43%); Village Green (-41%). 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 Duval County neighborhoods are most competitive?

Measured by speed of sale, the fastest-moving tracked communities right now are Paxon (1 days); Selva Lakes (2 days); Richard Grant (4 days) — homes there go under contract well ahead of the market-wide pace of 44 days.
