FALL 2025 HOUSE MARKET UPDATE FOR FLAGLER AND VOLUSIA COUNTIES
Here is a quick look at what is happening in our local market, based on the latest data from Realtor.com:
📍 Flagler County
▪️Median listing price: $410K
▪️Median sale price: $369K
▪️Price per sq ft: $218
▪️Average days on market: 95
➡️ This suggests a balanced market, with steady pricing and plenty of inventory.
Flagler County is sitting in the middle ground right now. It is not a hot seller’s market, but not fully buyer-controlled either. Prices are holding steady overall, but homes are taking longer to sell, which tells us buyers have more time to look around and compare.
🔑 What This Means for Sellers
▪️If you are selling in Flagler, you are still in a good position, but the strategy you use matters more
than ever.
▪️Buyers are picky because they are not rushing.
▪️Homes that show well and are priced realistically are still selling at strong prices.
▪️The “wait for multiple offers” mentality does not fit this market anymore.
In short, you can get a good price, but you must bring value and be competitive.
🔑 What This Means for Buyers
▪️Buyers in Flagler have space to breathe.
▪️You are not fighting against crowds or bidding wars.
▪️You can take a more thoughtful approach and negotiate if needed.
This is a great time to buy if you want coastal living without the pressure of a red-hot market.

📍 Volusia County
▪️Median listing price: $370K
▪️Median sale price: $342.1K
▪️Price per sq ft: $229
▪️Average days on market: 86
➡️ Higher inventory and softer pricing point to a balanced market leaning toward buyers.
Volusia is slightly more favorable for buyers than Flagler. Inventory is higher, and prices are softening in certain areas, which means buyers have more control than they did a year or two ago.
🔑What This Means for Sellers
▪️Selling in Volusia is still very possible, but expectations need to be realistic.
▪️Buyers have options, so homes must be priced well from day one.
▪️Presentation matters: clean, updated, and move-in ready homes stand out.
You should expect negotiation, whether it is on price, repairs, or closing costs. Think of it this way, it is a market where the well-prepared seller wins.
🔑 What This Means for Buyers
▪️ If you are a buyer in Volusia, conditions are working in your favor.
▪️More homes to pick from
▪️More room to negotiate
▪️Less urgency and competition
This is a strong moment to step into the market, especially for first-time buyers or anyone upsizing/downsizing without pressure.
