The Florida Single Family Home real estate market had slightly better sales activity when compared to last year. Though we continue to face headwinds with some economic uncertainties, it does appear that mortgage rates may have started to decrease and I expect to see a gradual return to a historically normal real estate market. Closed sales were up by 2.2% (were up by 0.6% in January). New sales under contract (new pending sales) were down by 0.3% (were down by 2.9% in January).

Prices increased for February when compared to last year.  The (year-to-year) median sales price was up by 5.1% (it was up by 3.8% in January). And, the average sales price was up by 5.7% (it was up by 9.7% last month).

The inventory of available homes for sale increased by 36.5% from last year.  This represents a 3.9 months supply of inventory (February 2023 had a 2.7 months supply). Florida remains in a seller’s market with the advantage to sellers. A balanced market favoring neither buyers nor sellers is considered to be one with a 6 to 7-month supply of inventory.
