Driftwood New Listings vs. Closings: The Supply Gap

Driftwood saw 55 new listings enter the market in the last six months while 51 homes closed, a tight balance that defines the current supply gap. This rolling six-month window ending Oct 31, 2026, shows 51 closed sales with a median price of $1,085,000, up 10.4% from the prior six months and nearly flat year-over-year at +0.6%. ALEX Intelligence analyzed the dual-axis supply and demand trend to compare new listings against closings. The market added 55 new homes for sale while absorbing 51 closed transactions, a net increase of just four active properties over the period. This near-equal flow suggests inventory is stabilizing rather than accumulating or depleting rapidly. The median days on market dropped to 38 days, down 5% from the prior six months and 15.6% lower than the same window last year. Homes sold for 96.3% of their original list price, an improvement of 3.8 percentage points compared to the prior period. The median living area shrank slightly to 3,325 square feet, down 6.5% from the previous six months. With 45 active listings today and a 5.29-month supply of inventory, the market remains balanced. Buyers and sellers should note that while new supply is entering at a steady pace, the absorption rate keeps pace with it, preventing significant price pressure in either direction.
