ST. LUCIE COUNTY HOUSING MARKET REMAINS STABLE AS INVENTORY EXPANDS

Just in! August 2025 reports have been released detailing recent real estate activity in St. Lucie County. The reports compare year-over-year data. Here are statistics on single-family homes. 

St. Lucie County’s housing market showed signs of consistency in August, with closed sales unchanged year-over-year at 555 transactions, identical to August 2024. Meanwhile, active listings rose 9.4%, reaching 2,641 homes, and pushing the months’ supply of inventory up to 5.9, giving buyers more selection and time to make confident decisions. The median sale price remained flat at $400,000, holding steady with last year’s levels. However, homes are taking slightly longer to sell: the median time to sale increased 4.6% to 91 days. Cash sales dropped 13.5%, reflecting a rise in mortgage-backed transactions and a more traditional buyer pool.

“We’re seeing a steady, well-balanced market in St. Lucie County,” says President of the Broward, Palm Beaches & St. Lucie Realtors® Jonathan Lickstein. “And for buyers—especially first-time buyers, this is an excellent time to consider all of your financing options, including assumable loans, which can offer significant savings on interest. It is a powerful but often overlooked financing option. A local Realtor® can help you navigate these opportunities with confidence.”

Assumable loans let buyers take over the seller’s existing mortgage, including its lower interest rate, something many homeowners locked in before rates climbed. This can lead to major savings over time, particularly for first-time buyers concerned about affordability. While these loans aren’t available on every property, a local Realtor® can help you identify homes with assumable financing and guide you through the process with confidence.
