How to read this market

At 3.3 months of supply the Fruit Cove is a seller’s market. Sold homes are closing at a median 99% of the final asking price after 45 days, so a listing that is priced to the last 90 days of ZIP-level comps still moves; one priced to the peak sits. Buyers should expect inspection and appraisal contingencies to hold, and should compare a home against its own ZIP (the table above) rather than against a St. Johns-wide median, because the spread between the cheapest and most expensive Fruit Cove ZIP is n/a.
