  • February’s interest rate was recorded at 6.6%, up slightly from 6.5% in January.
  • Homes spent an average of 57 days on the market (DOM) in February – the same as in January.
  • “Super Bowl weekend is considered the unofficial kick-off to the spring homebuying season, and we definitely saw an uptick in the market this month,” said Rose Kemp, Orlando Regional REALTOR® Association President. “We had a lot of pending sales in January that finalized in February, causing home sales to jump as we approach this busy time for the market. Inventory and pending sales both increased from January to February, meaning we can expect to see another active sales month in March now that buyers have more options.”

Neither the association nor StellarMLS guarantees or is in any way responsible for its accuracy. Data maintained by the association or by StellarMLS does not reflect all real estate activity in the market.
