Welcome to a bright and beautiful spring in Mrs. Rogers’ Neighborhood—where your real estate dreams bloom right along with the season. We’re here to share the latest on the Orlando market, so you can plant roots in the right place—whether you’re buying, selling, or just keeping tabs on the trends.


A Market in Full Bloom

The Orlando real estate market is as lively as ever. According to the Orlando Regional REALTOR® Association (ORRA), several standout trends signal a promising spring:

  1. Slight Price Increase

    • The median home price remains around $375,000, showing a gentle upward trend. Spring typically draws more buyers, so this pricing stability reflects steady demand and moderate supply.
  2. Active Listings

    • We’re seeing about 7,500 properties on the market—slightly higher than earlier in the year. This gives buyers a few more choices, but inventory remains tight enough to keep sellers smiling.
  3. Days on Market

    • 45 days is the average time a home spends on the market. This quick turnaround suggests buyers are eager to make moves, especially on well-priced, well-presented homes in popular neighborhoods.

Buyers: Ready, Set, Spring!

If you’re searching for your Florida home, get ready for some friendly competition. Neighborhoods like Winter Park, Lake Nona, and Baldwin Park often see multiple offers—especially now, with spring in the air and more families wanting to settle in before summer vacations begin. Having a clear budget and a trusted guide can help you navigate this season’s busy market.


Sellers: Springboard to Success

Listing your property this spring? You’re entering the market at an opportune time. Warmer weather tends to draw more house hunters, and with inventory still relatively limited, sellers can stand out by:

  • Staging: Light, fresh décor and a bit of floral flair go a long way.
  • Competitive Pricing: Aim for a price that reflects current demand but still appeals to buyers hunting for value.

With the right presentation, you could see strong offers—and maybe even a bidding burst that puts some spring in your step.


Rental Market Buzz

Rentals are also in high demand as new residents flock to the Sunshine State for work and lifestyle opportunities. If you’re considering investing in Orlando real estate, the spring season might be the perfect time to explore properties catering to these new arrivals.


What’s on the Horizon?

A few factors will shape the Orlando market this spring and beyond:

  1. Interest Rates
    Changes in mortgage rates influence buyer affordability. An uptick might nudge some buyers to act fast, while lower rates can draw in first-timers.

  2. Economic Growth
    Orlando’s thriving job market continues to bring in newcomers, driving consistent real estate demand.

  3. New Developments
    Ongoing and upcoming projects will likely add more housing options, but demand remains robust enough to keep competition healthy.


Wrapping Up

All in all, Orlando’s market remains vibrant as the flowers bloom. Buyers should be poised and prepared, while sellers enjoy the benefits of strong demand and a spirited pool of eager house hunters.
