Greater Palm Beach Area Residential Sales Surge as Inventory Shrinks
July 2026 brought a remarkable surge in residential sales across Palm Beach County. We saw overall sales jump by 15%, with single-family homes up 12.74%, condos rising 18.55%, and luxury properties leading the way at 36.5%. As inventory shrank by 20%, median prices climbed and cash buyers represented nearly half (48%) of all sales. As someone who works closely with both buyers and sellers throughout the Greater Palm Beach area, I’ve seen firsthand how these trends are shaping opportunities for clients looking to make their next move in our dynamic market.

Florida's housing market corrections continue to lose intensity—see the data across the state
In 2026, Florida’s housing market corrections are showing clear signs of slowing down. Some metro areas are even experiencing modest price gains—a welcome shift for both buyers and sellers. I’m seeing inventory start to tighten, especially in the neighborhoods that were hit hardest before. For those considering making a move in Palm Beach or across the state, these trends suggest that fundamentals are strengthening and the risk of further declines is easing. As someone who represents both buyers and sellers here, it’s encouraging to watch these positive shifts take shape.

More Homes Hit the Market as Demand Cools
We're seeing a shift in the market: over the four weeks ending August 23, new listings across the US ticked up 0.4% week-over-week, with total homes for sale climbing 0.5%. That’s the highest inventory we’ve seen since early Q2. At the same time, pending home sales dipped by 1.1%—a six-month low—as many buyers paused their search due to higher housing costs, even though more options are available. The median home-sale price nationally is up 1.9% from last year, now above $400,000, and average mortgage rates are hovering near 7%, their highest in over a year. For those actively searching, this combination of rising inventory and cooling demand is creating more favorable conditions: buyers have more room to negotiate, whether it’s for price reductions or seller concessions. From my experience working with both buyers and sellers, homes that have been on the market for several weeks often give buyers the best leverage, while sellers who price realistically—rather than aiming for last year’s highs—tend to see the best results.

California, Texas and Florida Lead $279 Billion U.S. Remodeling Market in 2026
Remodeling is on the rise, especially in states like California, Texas, and here in Florida—together, we've accounted for more than 20% of remodeling activity nationwide. California leads the way with $22.2 billion, but Florida homeowners are making their mark as well. From 2023 to 2025, remodeling spending grew by 10% even as costs increased—proof that more homeowners are leveraging their equity and updating aging homes. As someone who helps both buyers and sellers in Palm Beach, I see firsthand how these improvements can impact a property’s appeal and value.
