Lee County Market Heat Score: A Balanced View

Lee County's market heat score reflects a balanced environment where supply and demand are currently in equilibrium. The ALEX Intelligence composite index combines four key metrics to gauge this state: median days on market, sale-to-list price ratio, inventory levels, and the frequency of price reductions. Over the rolling six months ending October 31, 2026, the median closed price reached $349,500 across 46 sales, a 10.1% increase from the prior period. However, homes took an average of 54 days to sell, which is 28.6% longer than the same window last year. The median sale-to-list ratio stood at 93.4%, indicating that while sellers are getting close to their asking prices, nearly three-quarters of sales (76.1%) closed below the original list price. Current inventory stands at 48 active listings, creating a 6.26-month supply based on recent closing rates. This level suggests neither a strong buyer's nor a seller's market, but rather a transition toward balance. The ALEX Intelligence estimate for the heat score places Lee County in the middle range, driven by steady price growth offset by slower absorption rates and a higher share of homes selling below list compared to previous years. This analysis relies on 46 closed sales and current active inventory data. It does not predict future prices but reflects the conditions observed through October 31, 2026. Want to see this home?
