South Florida Single-Family Listings Fall 29% as Condo Supply Swells to 8.5 Months

1 articles · Updated · HousingWire · Jul 23

Summary

  • 13,319 single-family listings were active in the Miami-Fort Lauderdale-Pompano Beach metro, down 29% from a year earlier, while the median list price rose 6.5% to $799,000 and the mean hit $2.16 million.
  • That split reflects stronger demand from domestic movers and affluent buyers targeting updated homes in prime locations; only 35.3% of single-family listings cut prices, down from about 41% a year ago.
  • 28,074 condos were on the market, with median prices down 2.8% to $350,000, inventory up to 8.5 months from 4.9, and median days on market at 126 — a much softer backdrop than single-family homes.
  • International buyers, especially from Latin America, are still supporting condos and luxury projects; Miami Realtors says they accounted for roughly half of new- and pre-construction condo sales over the past 18 months.
  • Luxury remains the market's strongest pocket as scarce land, domestic migration and overseas capital keep demand elevated even while the broader condo sector works through added supply.
