A decline in available inventory has sent Orlando MSA median home prices rising 15% in June of 2016 compared to June in 2015 - the result, in part, to yet another double digit decline in inventory. Here is a look at the average prices over the last 5 years.
The number of days homes are on the market remains low. The current average time on market in June was 70 days. My current average to get under contract for 2016 is 22.5 days.
The average sales price increased from $217,284 in June 2015 to $246,244 in June 2016 for an increase of 11.76%.
In June, we had 13,367 homes available for sale in the Orlando MSA. That number seems to be staying pretty constant even as we roll into the summer months. Keep an eye out for our July report to see where it leads. Current inventory combined with the current pace of sales created a 3.03 month supply of homes in Orlando for June so we are still leaning towards a seller's market.
