Listings failing to sell — over time
Pull rate — % of listings expired or withdrawn · by year
Share of listings leaving the market without closing.
In September, n/a listings expired, were withdrawn or canceled against n/a closings — roughly a n/a pull rate. A modest failed-listing share: most homes that list are finding a buyer.
Median vs. "sold twice" — what's the difference?
The median just averages whatever happened to sell that month: if a wave of larger, higher-end homes closes, it jumps even if no single house gained. Sold twice finds the identical house that sold 1-3 years ago and again in the last 12 months and compares the two prices — since it is the same home both times, and the hold is short, that gap is comparable with the 12-month median change.
MOMENTUM MARKET PULSE™South Florida · September 2026
The 30-year fixed is about 6.95% (latest rate carried on our county pages), which puts the payment on the median all residential home at $2,383/month with 20% down. Cash buyers were n/a of September closings.
Rate: the figure our county scorecards carry (Freddie Mac PMMS via the national data lane). Payment: principal and interest only, 20% down, 30-year fixed.
What this means — for buyers & sellers
If you're buying
Move decisively on well-priced homes. 7% still sell over list and 50 days is the median wait.
Ask for concessions (rate buydowns, closing costs) — especially on new construction.
Don't wait for a crash. Same-home prices are unchanged; the market is steady.
If you're selling
Price correctly the first time. Homes that cut price sit; well-priced homes still go under contract in ~50 days.
Expect negotiation. 7% still sell over list, but the rest don't.
Condition matters more now. With buyers paying up, buyers pass on homes that need work.
By property type
Closed sales by property type, September 2026
This feed does not carry a property sub-type on closed records.
New construction was 64% of all residential closings.

Not enough history.
About one in 2 all residential sales is a brand-new home. The engine is the rate-lock: owners holding low-rate mortgages won't sell, so resale supply stays choked and builders fill the vacuum — buying the demand with incentives. It is the mix-shift from another angle: the market is increasingly selling newer homes, not just bigger ones.

MOMENTUM MARKET PULSE™South Florida · September 2026
All residential, MIAMI MLS (SEFMLS) region. Computed from 9,336 closed records, cleaned for entry errors. "New contracts" = closings by purchase-contract month plus contracts still pending. "Received vs. original list" vs the first asking price; the gap to final list is the pre-sale price cut.
Does the Score work? A 20-year back-test
We computed a closed-sales version of the Momentum Market Score every month back to 2005 (pace, over-list share and price-cut discipline), then measured what the median price actually did over the next six months. It bottomed at 25 in May 2026 and peaked at 25 in May 2026; today it reads 25.
Momentum Market Score · 2005–2026
0 = deep buyer's market, 100 = frenzy.
What happened next · avg 6-mo price change by Score tier
Higher Score → stronger forward price growth, tier by tier.
The live cover Score also blends months of supply and the active price-cut share, so the two differ slightly. Past performance is not a guarantee of future results.

Probability-weighted directional readings from this edition's leading indicators — new contracts (n/a YoY), active price cuts (n/a), days on market (unchanged YoY) and months of supply (n/a). The weights follow a fixed rule: an indicator moving strongly in one direction (10%+ YoY) is given 65/25/10; a moderate move 55/30/15; a weak or absent move 45/35/20. Each row sums to 100%.
