Miami Housing Market

Miami homebuyers have fewer homes to choose from this summer

Inventory fell by more than 10% from a year ago, but slower sales and longer days on the market continue to give buyers leverage when negotiating sale prices.

Home sales improve from last year's lows

Miami recorded just under 2,000 home sales in July, up 6.2% from a year earlier. Through the first seven months of 2026, the market logged 14,225 sales, about 1,100 more than during the same period in 2025.

Even so, Miami's housing market remains quieter than it was before the pandemic. More than 17,500 homes were sold during the first seven months of 2019, compared with about 14,225 this year.

Sales also slowed from June, with roughly 350 fewer homes changing hands. Much of the decline came from single-family homes, with July marking the first month since February to have fewer than 1,000 sales.

Fewer homes are hitting the market

Buyers had fewer options in July as both inventory and new listings declined.

Miami had just under 18,800 homes for sale, down 10.3% from a year earlier, one of the largest inventory declines among the nation's 40 largest housing markets. Single-family inventory fell 17%, leaving roughly 1,120 fewer homes available for purchase.

New listings also slowed. Just 3,615 homes entered the market in July, down 1.1% year over year and the fewest since December 2025. Miami was the only top 40 US housing market to post a year-over-year decline in new listings during the month.

Despite the decrease in inventory, homes continued to take time to sell. The typical home spent 88 days on the market, while condos had a median days-on-market of 104.

Buyers continue finding room to negotiate

Miami's median sale price was $550,000 in July, unchanged from a year earlier.

Still, prices slipped 4% from June, a decline of roughly $25,000 and the lowest median sale price since November 2025. Condo prices posted the steepest decline, falling 8.5% month over month.

In July, buyers also maintained negotiating power. Homes sold for 92.7% of list price, the lowest sale-to-list price ratio among the top 40 U.S. housing markets. Condo buyers secured even steeper discounts, paying just 90.9% of list price.

Buyers continue finding discounts, particularly in the condo market, but the sharp price declines seen late last year have largely eased.
