Key Findings

  1. The primary indicator of recent market value is the median sold price of 371,000, which represents the representative recent sale level buyers have accepted in ZIP 33813 and should guide pricing and underwriting assumptions.
  2. There is a material gap between the median listing price of 442,500 and the median sold price of 371,000, which suggests pricing friction and that seller expectations remain elevated relative to completed transactions; price-driven adjustments or targeted concessions may be necessary to accelerate closings.
  3. Market velocity appears slow: the median days on market of 314 indicates extended marketing time and slower sales velocity, which may require more aggressive marketing, staged offers, or realistic price positioning to maintain liquidity.
  4. Market context is mixed but resilient: the price year-over-year trend is up and the rent year-over-year trend is up, while the market temperature is neutral and interest rate pressure is elevated — together this points to modest appreciation and strong rental demand but constrained affordability, so prioritize listings that highlight rental income potential and price-competitive comparables.
