Latest Activity Orlando Real Estate

  • The market is nearly balanced between buyers and sellers, with an 8.37-month of inventory supply. Housing economists consider a six-month supply to be indicative of a balanced market.
  • The inventory level’s 8.37-month supply is a 61.14 percent decline since January 2009 and is the lowest since July 2006.
  • Inventory decreased by 1,292 homes from May 2009, and is 27.44 percent lower than it was in June 2008 (24,575).
