St. Lucie County October Real Estate Statistics

St. Lucie County Real Estate Market Update – October 2025

(Single-Family Homes)

The St. Lucie County housing market is charging ahead this fall. October delivered impressive gains in both closed and pending sales, with new listings rising to meet the demand. Even with a slight dip in prices, activity levels are up across the board — showing that buyers are serious and sellers are responding.

Market Breakdown – October 2025 vs. October 2024

Median Sale Price: $390,000
Down 4% year-over-year
Home prices have eased a bit from last year, giving buyers more room to negotiate. But in a market with this much activity, the slight dip in price may be short-lived.

Closed Sales: 483 homes
Up 22% year-over-year
This is a major jump and signals that buyers are back in force. Homes are moving — and the market is benefiting from increased momentum.

Active Inventory: 2,421 homes
Up 9% year-over-year
Inventory is climbing steadily, which helps keep the market balanced and gives buyers a wider selection. This is a healthy trend and supports the continued growth in sales.

Pending Sales: 512 contracts
Up 35% year-over-year
Contracts are soaring — one of the strongest year-over-year gains in months. This signals that the demand isn’t just present, it’s accelerating, and will likely result in strong closing numbers in November.

Months of Inventory: 5.4 months
Up 10% year-over-year
This keeps the market in balanced territory, where neither buyers nor sellers have a strong upper hand. It’s the ideal environment for fair offers and solid negotiations.

Days on Market: 47 days
Down 13% year-over-year
Homes are selling faster than they were a year ago — a clear sign that the combination of better pricing and buyer motivation is working.

New Listings: 692
Up 24% year-over-year
This big increase in new listings shows that sellers are responding to buyer demand and preparing for a strong finish to the year.
