Inventory sits at 1.9 months of supply — tight by the 3-to-6-month balanced benchmark, and 67% of listed homes are already under contract. Prices are up 4.5% versus the prior year and sellers are still collecting 98.3% of asking. Taken together, the data points to a seller-leaning market.

What It Means

Who has leverage right now

BUYER'S SELLER'S 87
Momentum Score
Buyer leverage13
Seller leverage87

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 — building over the tracked window; watch whether that holds through the season.
  • Negotiating power — sellers hold the leverage while 67% 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
PARK VIEW/THE HILLS PH 1 ▼ 23%

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: 2.2 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 Minneola right now.

Biggest opportunity
$500K–$750K: 1.5 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 Minneola right now?

The data says conditions currently favor sellers in Minneola — the Momentum Score reads 87/100 with 1.9 months of supply. Buyers should come fully underwritten; sellers still set the pace here.

Is Minneola becoming more affordable?

No — the median sale price in Minneola is $565,000, up 4.5% versus the prior year, while sellers still capture 98.3% of asking price. Rising prices mean waiting has a cost; affordability hinges mostly on your rate.
