Market Analysis
In May 2026, the median sale price in Palm Beach County rose to $540,000, +1.9% year over year, a market stabilizing after the post-2021 run-up. Active inventory tightened (-12.3%) while homes took about 81 days to sell, a pace that shortened from a year earlier. Closed sales climbed (+5.8%), and with homes trading at 95.3% of list price, the market sits in balanced-to-seller territory. In practice, buyers face far less competition than they did from 2021 to 2023 and can take time to compare options, while sellers win with realistic pricing and sharp presentation rather than the list-and-wait approach that worked at the peak.
