June 18th, 2024 by tisner

New Orlando Regional REALTOR® Association data shows inventory surpasses 10,000 homes for first time since 2016.

State of the Market

    • Inventory was 99.7% higher than May 2023.
  • Overall sales rose 5.4% from April to May. There were 2,909 sales in May, up from 2,759 sales in April. This is the fourth month in a row that sales have risen.
  • The median home price for May was recorded at $385,000, down from $388,500 in April. April was the highest monthly median home price on record in the Orlando area.
  • May’s interest rate was recorded at 6.6%, down from 6.9% in April.
  • Pending sales fell by 1.8%, with 4,379 in April and 4,298 in May.
  • New listings rose 6.9% from April to May, with 4,521 new homes on the market in May, compared to 4,230 in April.
  • Homes spent an average of 54 days on the market (DOM) in May – the same as in April.
  • “Although May’s inventory did show a slight increase, it’s important to remember that our market is still very active. While there may be a few more options available compared to recent months, the high sales volume means homes are still moving quickly,” said Rose Kemp, Orlando Regional REALTOR® Association President. “With inventory levels remaining below the six months of supply that is considered a balanced market, buyers should be prepared to act fast if they find a home that meets their needs. The past four months have seen consistent sales growth, and I expect that trend to continue into the summer, making inventory a key factor for buyers.”
