What Realtors Need to Know About Today’s Market

ORLANDO, Fla. — What’s driving Florida’s real estate market today? Are inflation, demographic shifts, and insurance changes reshaping housing? Which trends should Realtors® watch as buyer profiles evolve?

The most recent Florida Realtors® Economist Report dives into inflation, buyers, demographics and more – all shaping Florida’s real estate market today. The report, published July 2025, highlights key trends and insights every Realtor should know, including these top five takeaways:

• Market shifts: More sellers are listing, but buyers are older, wealthier and repeat owners. First-time buyers are largely sidelined.
• Price pressure: Home prices remain high and monthly payments are rising, but market balance is slowly returning, giving buyers more negotiating power.
• Demographics matter: Fewer households have children, and single female buyers are rising, changing what buyers want in a home.
• Migration and growth: Florida attracts wealth and jobs, keeping prices stable. Inbound migration supports the economy despite slowing rates.
• Condo challenges: New safety laws and rising costs are pushing more condos onto the market, but legislative updates give associations flexibility to ease assessments.
