At Vacay & Co Real Estate, we believe informed sellers make the best decisions  and September’s numbers give a clear picture of where the market stands as we head into the final stretch of 2025.

While the broader Florida market continues to balance after last year’s highs, homes that are well-priced and well-presented are still selling successfully, especially in the Orlando resort corridor.

🏠 What This Means for You

For homeowners thinking of selling, this season presents a real opportunity.

• Inventory is tightening again,  fewer listings means your home stands out.

• Buyers are still motivated, especially before year-end.

• Homes priced correctly are still achieving near-asking offers.

Those who list now could secure a buyer and close by Christmas or early January, starting 2026 with clarity and confidence.
