Florida home sales are up for nine straight months

Closed sales rose year-over-year in May for both single-family homes and condos, and pending sales are climbing too — giving Realtors real momentum to work with heading into the summer.
WHY THIS MATTERS

• A nine-month sales streak gives you data-backed confidence when customers ask whether now is a good time.
• Rising pending sales suggest early summer activity holds — useful context for anyone on the fence about timing.
• Elevated rates are keeping some buyers out, which means less competition for the ones who are ready.

May’s statewide sales data showed:

Single-family closed sales totaled 24,915 statewide, up 0.6% from May 2025.

Condo and townhouse sales reached 8,897, up 6.6% year over year.
New pending sales rose 4.8% for single-family homes and 9% for condos and townhouses.

“The direction that sales will trend continues to be heavily contingent on where mortgage rates go from here, and how soon,” O’Connor said. “Inflation has continued to creep upward, spurred by high energy prices, and that is keeping rates a fair amount above where we started the year. Lower rates in the coming months would go a long way toward ensuring continued growth in sales figures.”

Florida home sales rose again in May, continuing a nine-month streak of year-over-year gains. The data gives Realtors a useful way to talk with buyers and sellers about timing, pricing and how local conditions are shaping activity.
