The Orlando Florida real estate housing statistics for August 2015 have been released by the Orlando Regional Realtor Association. Here is a direct link to the full MLS statistics details. These numbers are for Orange County and Seminole County in Florida and show properties sold via the MLS. They do not include for sale by owner FSBO, courthouse auction, builder sales, or other non-MLS sales.
Month Inventory New Listings New Pendings Closed Sales Median Price
August 2014 13,084 4002 2711 2540 $163,900
June 2015 12,058 4370 3067 3603 $180,000
July 2015 11,819 4302 2971 3566 $183,300
August 2015 11,661 4006 2828 3094 $182,000
The market continues to stabilize. Inventory has remained stead around the 11 to 12,000 mark for about a year now. The number of new listings and new pendings remain stable as well. The gap between those 2 numbers hovers around the 1200 mark which is a little high but deals are definitely closing.
Closed sales remain very strong. August sales remained high as they hovered just over the 3000 mark. We now have a 3.5 month supply of homes available for sale. (11,661 inventory / 3,094 sales = 3.8 months' supply). We are in a strong seller's market which is generally a good thing. It is somewhat challenging though for buyers because everything priced right is selling quickly. Days on market has reduced down to just 69 days.
Prices continue to climb slightly. The median price of $182,000 is the 2nd highest price we have seen since the 2008 market crash. (The highest price was in July.)
