How is the Charlotte County ZIP heat map built?
Charlotte County listings are shared across two MLS systems, Stellar MLS and the Florida Gulf Coast MLS, and Momentum publishes a Market Pulse for each. The Stellar report has the deeper Charlotte coverage: its heat map counts single-family closings from August through October 2026 in ZIPs with at least 15 sales and reports, for each ZIP, closings, median sale price, median days on market and the share of houses that sold above their original list price. Thirteen ZIPs that lie mainly in Charlotte County qualify, with 1,097 house sales between them over the three months. A separate section below lists the four Charlotte ZIPs on the Gulf Coast report.

Limitations
ZIP figures are trailing three months (August to October 2026) for ZIPs with at least 15 closings; the Stellar rows are single-family homes only and the Gulf Coast rows are all residential. County rows are October 2026 alone. Neither report covers every Charlotte County sale, and the two are not added together because a sale could appear in both systems. Each ZIP is grouped by the county where most of it lies; Englewood 34223 lies mainly in Sarasota County and is left out. Place names follow the city most often recorded in each ZIP's sales. Small ZIPs of 15 to 40 sales can swing from one quarter to the next. Information is deemed reliable but not guaranteed.
