SE Florida Housing Market: More Choices for Buyers, Fewer Homes Changing Hands
September’s market snapshots show a common trend across several Southeast Florida cities: inventory continues to rise significantly, giving buyers more options and negotiating power, while the number of homes sold remains lower than last year. Home prices are mixed, with some cities seeing gains and others experiencing modest declines.
Fort Lauderdale
Fort Lauderdale posted one of the strongest price performances, with average sales prices rising 12% year over year to $911,000. Even so, the number of closed sales fell, and inventory more than doubled, providing buyers with greater opportunities throughout the market.
Wilton Manors
Wilton Manors continues to command some of the highest prices in the area, with homes averaging $729,000. While list prices increased, sales volume declined and inventory grew, signaling a slower pace despite continued demand for the community.
Hollywood
Home prices remained relatively stable, with an average sales price of $481,000. However, sales activity slowed considerably, while available inventory increased sharply, giving buyers a wider selection of homes to choose from.
Dania Beach
Average sales prices edged up to $454,000, but only a handful of homes sold during the month. Inventory surged dramatically, creating a more buyer-friendly market and putting pressure on sellers to price competitively.
Hallandale Beach
Hallandale Beach experienced the largest drop in average sales price, though sellers are still receiving about 96% of their asking price. Inventory expanded significantly, while sales activity remained limited, reflecting a market where buyers have plenty of options.
Market Takeaway
Across Southeast Florida, the market is shifting toward balance as inventory levels rise and sales activity slows. While desirable, well-priced homes continue to attract buyers, today’s market requires strategic pricing, strong marketing, and local expertise to achieve the best results. Whether you’re thinking about buying, selling, or simply staying informed, understanding your local market is key to making confident real estate decisions.

How to Know Your Current Home Equity
🌴 How to Know Your Current Home Equity in SE Florida (2026 Guide for Homeowners)
If you’re a homeowner in Fort Lauderdale and surrounding communities, understanding your current home equity is one of the smartest financial steps you can take. Equity is simply the portion of your home you truly own, and in SE Florida’s fast‑moving coastal market, it can shift more quickly than many people realize.
Here’s how to calculate it — and why working with a local real estate professional gives you the most accurate picture.
-
Start With Your Home’s True Market Value
Your home’s current value is the foundation of your equity. While online estimates can be a starting point, they often miss the nuances that matter most in SE Florida, such as:
- Waterfront premiums and canal access
- Impact windows, roof age, and insurance‑friendly upgrades
- Neighborhood micro‑trends within 0.25 miles
- Condo reserve strength and milestone inspection status
- Local development (Dania Pointe, Brightline expansion, new parks)
- Seasonal buyer demand and relocation patterns
This is where a local real estate agent becomes invaluable. An experienced SE Florida agent understands how these factors influence value street‑by‑street — something algorithms simply cannot do. A professional CMA (Comparative Market Analysis) reflects real buyer behavior, real neighborhood trends, and real market conditions.
-
Subtract Your Current Loan Balances
Once you know your home’s true market value, subtract:
- Your remaining mortgage principal
- Any HELOCs or second mortgages
- Any solar or improvement loans tied to the property
Your lender’s portal will show your exact payoff amount.
-
Consider SE Florida‑Specific Equity Factors
Our region has unique variables that directly affect equity:
- Insurance requirements — newer roofs, impact windows, and updated systems increase value
- Flood zone changes — Risk Rating 2.0 impacts desirability and premiums
- Waterfront infrastructure — seawall condition, dock permits, and canal depth matter
- HOA/condo reserves — strong reserves boost value; deferred maintenance lowers it
- Local revitalization — walkability improvements and new businesses raise neighborhood equity
A local agent tracks these shifts in real time, ensuring your equity estimate reflects today’s realities — not outdated data.
-
The Simple Formula
Once you have your numbers:
Current Market Value – Total Loan Balances = Your Home Equity
Example: If your home is worth $750,000 and you owe $310,000, your equity is $440,000.
🌺 Why a Local Agent Gives You the Most Accurate Equity Picture
Equity isn’t just a number — it’s a reflection of your home’s position in the current market. A seasoned SE Florida agent:
- Knows how buyers value specific upgrades
- Understands neighborhood micro‑trends
- Accounts for insurance and inspection realities
- Recognizes lifestyle-driven demand (walkability, waterfront access, outdoor living)
- Provides a personalized valuation rooted in real data, not generic algorithms
This ensures you’re making decisions based on true equity, not guesswork.
🌞 Smart Ways to Use Your Home Equity
If you’re considering tapping into your equity, the wisest uses are those that strengthen your financial stability or improve your lifestyle. Many SE Florida homeowners use equity to:
- Upgrade roofs, windows, or systems to reduce insurance costs
- Renovate kitchens, baths, or outdoor spaces
- Consolidate high‑interest debt
- Purchase a second home or investment property
- Downsize into a simpler, low‑maintenance lifestyle
As your local SE Florida real estate resource, I’m here to help you understand exactly where your equity stands — with real data, neighborhood insight, and the kind of street‑level expertise no online estimate can match. If you’re ready for a personalized equity check or want to explore what your equity could unlock in today’s market, reach out anytime. Your home’s next chapter starts with clarity, confidence, and a trusted local expert by your side. 🌴✨

Snapshot of Today’s Broward County Market
July 2026 Real Estate Market Snapshot: More Choices, Slower Pace, Select Areas Holding Strong
As we move through the summer selling season, the July 2026 housing data across Fort Lauderdale, Wilton Manors, Hollywood, Dania Beach, and Hallandale Beach tells a consistent story: inventory continues to rise while sales activity slows. This shift is creating a more balanced market and giving buyers more options and negotiating power than we’ve seen in recent years.
While the overall number of homes sold declined across all five markets compared to last year, pricing trends varied by location. Some communities, particularly Fort Lauderdale and Wilton Manors, continued to see price appreciation, while others experienced softer pricing as inventory levels climbed.
Key Market Trends
Inventory Is Growing
One of the biggest themes across South Broward County is the significant increase in available homes for sale.
- Hallandale Beach inventory surged 671%
- Hollywood inventory increased 275%
- Dania Beach inventory climbed 203%
- Fort Lauderdale inventory rose 68%
- Wilton Manors inventory increased 39%
More inventory means buyers have more choices, can take more time making decisions, and may have greater leverage during negotiations.
Home Sales Are Slower
Closed sales were down in every market compared to July 2025:
- Hallandale Beach: -87%
- Hollywood: -77%
- Dania Beach: -70%
- Fort Lauderdale: -42%
- Wilton Manors: -27%
Higher inventory combined with longer decision-making periods and ongoing affordability considerations continue to slow transaction volume.
Pricing Remains Market-Specific
Price performance varied significantly by location:
Gaining Strength
- Fort Lauderdale average sales price increased 19% to $1.08M
- Wilton Manors average sales price increased 10% to $553K
Holding Steady
- Hallandale Beach average sales price remained unchanged at $544K
Experiencing Price Adjustments
- Dania Beach average sales price declined 12% to $384K
- Hollywood average sales price declined 31% to $438K
These variations demonstrate why hyper-local market knowledge is more important than ever. Conditions can differ dramatically from one community to the next.
Sellers Are Still Receiving Strong Offers
Despite increased competition, most homes continued to sell close to their asking prices:
- Dania Beach: 98.9% of list price
- Wilton Manors: 97.2% of list price
- Fort Lauderdale: 95.2% of list price
- Hollywood: 95.1% of list price
- Hallandale Beach: 91.1% of list price
Well-priced, well-presented homes continue to attract serious buyers.
What This Means for Buyers and Sellers
For Buyers:
The market is offering more opportunities than we’ve seen in several years. With inventory levels increasing, buyers have more choices, less competition, and greater room for negotiation.
For Sellers:
Pricing strategy is critical. Buyers have options, so homes that are accurately priced and professionally marketed are the ones generating activity. The good news is that quality listings are still achieving strong sale-to-list-price ratios.
Here are the Market Snapshots reflecting the last month (compared to the same month last year) for the following areas:
- Fort Lauderdale
- Wilton Manors
- Hollywood
- Dania Beach
- Hallandale Beach
These take into account all property types (Single Family Homes/Condos/Townhomes).
My Local Perspective
As a South Florida REALTOR®, I’m seeing a market that is gradually finding balance after years of limited inventory and intense competition. While sales activity has slowed, property values remain resilient in many neighborhoods, particularly in Fort Lauderdale and Wilton Manors. The current environment rewards preparation, realistic pricing, and local market expertise.
Real estate is no longer a one-size-fits-all market. Whether you’re considering buying, selling, or simply curious about your home’s value, understanding what’s happening in your specific neighborhood is more important than ever.

Fort Lauderdale June 2026 Area Report
Fort Lauderdale June 2026 real estate statistics have been published.
Single Family Homes
Condominium & Townhouses
Key Takeaway
The Fort Lauderdale housing market remained active in June 2026, but trends differed significantly between single-family homes and condos/townhomes. Single-family homes saw rising prices and stronger sales activity, while condos experienced lower prices despite increased sales volume.
Single-Family Homes: Strong Seller Market
What Happened in June 2026?
- Home sales increased 21.4% compared to June 2025 (187 homes sold vs. 154).

- The median home price rose to $599,000, up 8.9% year-over-year.
- The average sales price jumped 46.1% to nearly $1.3 million, indicating more luxury and waterfront sales.
- Homes sold faster, with average days on market dropping from 85 to 74 days.
What This Means
✅ Buyers are still purchasing despite higher prices.
✅ Inventory is tighter because fewer homeowners are listing properties.
✅ Sellers continue to have leverage, especially in desirable neighborhoods and luxury markets.
✅ Well-priced homes are attracting buyers more quickly than last year.
Condos & Townhomes: More Sales, But Lower Prices
What Happened in June 2026?
- Sales increased 11.8% compared to June 2025.
- New listings dropped 27.7%, reducing available inventory.
- The median condo/townhome price fell 15.7% to $430,000.
- The average sales price declined 9.1% to $630,482.
- Properties took slightly longer to sell, averaging 98 days on market.
What This Means
✅ Condo buyers are finding more negotiating opportunities.
✅ Prices have softened compared to a year ago.
✅ Sales activity remains healthy despite declining prices.
✅ Buyers who were priced out of single-family homes may find more value in the condo market.
Inventory & Market Conditions
Single-Family Homes
- Inventory has tightened significantly.
- Months of supply fell to approximately 6.1 months, close to a balanced market.
Condos & Townhomes
- Inventory remains much higher.
- Months of supply is approximately 9.3 months, giving buyers more choices and negotiating power.
In Plain English
- Single-family homes = stronger seller market
- Condos/townhomes = more balanced to buyer-friendly market
Year-to-Date Highlights (2026)
Single-Family Homes
- Sales are up 12% compared to 2025.
- Median sales price is up 2.5% to $615,000.
- Average sales price is up 10.7%.
Condos & Townhomes
- Sales are up 10% compared to 2025.
- Median sales price is up only 1.1% year-to-date.
- Average sales price is up 7.2% year-to-date despite the June pullback.
Fort Lauderdale Market Outlook
The June 2026 data shows a market that remains active but is becoming more selective. Single-family homes continue to outperform with rising prices, solid demand, and decreasing inventory. Meanwhile, condos and townhomes are offering buyers better opportunities due to softer pricing and more available inventory. Overall, sales activity is increasing across both property types, a positive sign for the Fort Lauderdale real estate market heading into the second half of 2026.
In today’s competitive SE Florida housing market, it’s essential to work with an experienced and knowledgeable real estate professional.

Snapshot of Today’s Broward County Market
The Broward County real estate market continued to show a clear shift toward buyers in June 2026, with inventory levels rising sharply across Hallandale Beach, Dania Beach, Hollywood, Wilton Manors, and Fort Lauderdale. While average sales prices remained resilient in several markets—including Hollywood (+37%), Hallandale Beach (+28%), and Fort Lauderdale (+14%)—closed sales activity declined significantly, ranging from 67% to 87% fewer properties sold year-over-year. Buyers also gained more negotiating power, with homes selling at approximately 91% to 94% of list price and months of inventory increasing between 97% and 579%, depending on the city.
Bottom Line: Broward County home prices are holding relatively strong, but rising inventory and slower sales are creating a more balanced, buyer-friendly market. Sellers should focus on strategic pricing and strong property presentation, while buyers may find more choices and greater negotiating opportunities than they have seen in recent years.
Advice for buyers
- Leverage the extra inventory, but don’t overplay your hand
- You often have multiple options and more time to decide—use that to compare HOA fees, insurance quotes, and reserves (especially for condos).
- Focus on total monthly cost, not just price
- Insurance + taxes + HOA can swing affordability more than a small price difference, particularly in Broward’s coastal and condo markets. Get quotes early and build them into your budget.
- Negotiate with data
- Use recent days‑on‑market and price reductions in the neighborhood to justify your offer and repair credits. In a cooler market, sellers are more open to concessions on closing costs, repairs, or rate buydowns.
- Be picky about building quality and reserves
- For condos, review the budget, reserves, and recent engineering reports. Newer safety and reserve rules can mean higher assessments—better to know now than be surprised later.
- Get pre‑approved and be clear on your walk‑away line
- A strong, clean pre‑approval still stands out. Decide in advance the max payment you’re comfortable with so you don’t stretch just because a property feels “perfect.”
Advice for sellers
- Price for today’s market, not yesterday’s peak
- With prices slightly correcting and days on market rising, overpricing is the fastest way to sit stale and invite lowball offers. Start at a realistic, data‑backed price that matches recent closed sales, not just active listings.
- Win on presentation
- In a higher‑inventory market, your home is competing hard for attention. Professional photos, good lighting, decluttering, minor repairs, and neutral paint can be the difference between “scroll past” and “schedule a showing.”
- Be ready to negotiate—and to give value
- Buyers now expect something: a price adjustment, closing cost help, or a credit for updates. Decide ahead of time what you’re willing to offer so you can respond quickly and keep good buyers engaged.
- Mind the first 2–3 weeks on market
- That’s when you get the most eyeballs. If showings are slow or feedback is consistently about price, adjust quickly rather than waiting months and chasing the market down.
- For condo sellers: get your paperwork tight
- Have association docs, budgets, reserves, and recent inspections ready. The smoother and more transparent the building looks, the less nervous buyers (and their lenders) will be.
Here are the Market Snapshots reflecting the last month (compared to the same month last year) for the following areas:

July 2026 ~ 4th of July Fun, Vintage Trends and Barndominiums!
July 2026 NewsletterWelcome to Your July 2026 Real Estate & Lifestyle Update!
Hello friends, neighbors, and sunshine lovers ☀️ July is officially arriving here in beautiful South Florida—and you can feel the energy everywhere. Between long beach days, backyard gatherings, and fireworks lighting up the sky, this is the season where home truly becomes the heart of it all. As your local real estate resource (and someone who absolutely loves where we live), I always think of July as the perfect blend of celebration, inspiration, and fresh ideas for making your home even more special. And this month’s newsletter is packed with just that. With the 4th of July right around the corner, we’re sharing a few fun, fresh celebration ideas—from simple ways to elevate your backyard party to practical reminders to help keep your family, guests (and even pets!) safe while enjoying the festivities. After all, while fireworks and summer traditions bring us together, safety is just as important as the celebration itself. Inside your home, it’s all about effortless upgrades that feel high-end without the heavy lift. You’ll find inspiration for incorporating brass, copper, and gold accents—a trend that’s having a major comeback thanks to its warm, timeless appeal and ability to instantly elevate a space. We’re also taking a closer look at one of the most talked-about housing trends right now: barndominiums. These versatile, open-concept homes are gaining popularity across the U.S. for their flexibility, durability, and unique blend of modern design with rustic charm. And if you love a little nostalgia mixed with style (who doesn’t?), you’ll enjoy our spotlight on vintage-inspired décor—a trend that’s bringing warmth, personality, and story-driven design back into today’s homes. Whether you’re thinking about buying, selling, updating your space, or just soaking in everything summer has to offer, my goal is always the same—to keep you informed, inspired, and connected to our amazing community. Here’s to a joyful, safe, and beautifully styled July ✨ |
