Market figures by town

Palmera Ridge saw median home prices rise to $730,000 in the six months ending October 2026, an 8.1% increase compared to the same period last year. This recovery follows a period where homes sold for significantly less relative to their list prices. The median close-to-original list ratio improved to 93.8%, up from 81.1% in the prior six-month window, indicating that buyers are now paying closer to asking prices than they did previously. Despite the price gains, the market remains slower than a year ago. Homes spent a median of 95 days on the market, which is 150% longer than the 38 days recorded in the same period last year. This extended timeline suggests that while demand has stabilized enough to support higher prices, inventory levels remain high relative to sales volume. The months of inventory stands at 7.38, a figure that typically characterizes a buyer's market where sellers have more time to find buyers. New construction continues to play a major role in this community, accounting for 11 of the 26 closed sales in the current window. The average home size sold was 3,221 square feet, which is slightly smaller than the 3,394 square feet seen in the prior period but still larger than the 2,843 square feet from a year ago. With 37 new listings added recently and 32 active homes currently for sale, the supply side remains robust. ALEX Intelligence analyzed these trends to provide this executive summary of the local market conditions. The data reflects a market in transition, where price resilience is emerging alongside longer selling times. Buyers may find more negotiating power on days on market, while sellers benefit from improved price realization compared to earlier in the year. Want to see this home?
