Momentum is building across South Florida’s real estate markets as we look ahead to 2026, with tighter inventory—not dwindling demand—shaping the landscape. As someone who’s watched our region evolve for decades, I recognize the impact of a low-6% mortgage range in steadying the market and opening doors for prepared buyers.
The ultra-luxury segment especially stands out: there are about 488 single-family homes listed above $5M, with around 43 sales and 20 condo sales closing each month. In total, there are roughly 4,500 homes available right now in South Florida. Interestingly, about 10% of these are priced above $5 million, and another 10% are below $500,000—a snapshot that highlights how limited inventory can help sustain property values.
If supply continues to be tight, upward price pressure is likely to remain, while the upcoming property tax referendum could also shape decisions for owners considering a move. My lifelong connection to Southwest Florida means I keep a close watch on these trends, always ready to provide clear, strategic insight—whether you’re buying, selling, or simply weighing your options.
