Alachua County is still a seller's market this June, though the edges are softening a bit. The median sold price came in at $348,495, down 5.5% from last month, while homes are moving faster and inventory is creeping up. Here's what I'm seeing in the Alachua County market this month, and what it means whether you're buying, selling, or just watching from the sidelines.
What Are Home Prices Doing in Alachua County Right Now?
The median sold price for single family homes in Alachua County is $348,495, down 5.5% month over month. That dip reflects the mix of homes that closed this month more than a sudden shift in value — active listings still carry a median list price of $374,900, up 1.6% from last month. Zoom out and prices are basically flat to slightly softer over the past year, down 2.38% over 12 months.
How Long Is It Taking to Sell a Home in Alachua County?
Homes are selling fast right now. Median days on market for sold listings dropped to 29 days, a 32.6% drop from last month. Sellers are also getting close to full asking price, with an average list-to-sale ratio of 97.42%. That combination tells me buyers are still competing for well-priced homes.
Is There Enough Inventory for Buyers in Alachua County?
Months of inventory sits at 4.16, up slightly from last month but still down 8% over the past year. That puts Alachua County in balanced-to-slight-seller's-market territory. Active listings climbed to 1,006, up 1.9% month over month, so buyers do have more to choose from than they did a year ago, even if it's not a flood of new options.
What Does This Mean if You're Thinking About Selling?
If you're considering listing in Alachua County, pricing accuracy matters more than ever. With homes selling in a median of 29 days at 97.42% of list price, well-priced homes are still moving quickly, but overpricing will cost you time on market. The days of listing high and waiting for an offer are behind us.
What Should Buyers Know About the Alachua County Market?
Buyers, you have a little more breathing room than you did a year ago, but don't expect a buyer's market. With 4.16 months of supply and homes still selling near full price, you'll want to be pre-approved and ready to move when you find the right property. The homes sold count jumped 21.8% month over month, so competition is active.
