<div id="readability-page-1"><div> <div> , /PRNewswire/ -- Florida's housing market reported more closed sales, increased pending sales and higher pending inventory in April 2026, compared to the previous year, according to Florida Realtors®' latest housing data. &#34;Florida's housing market continues to show sustainable momentum, with more buyers and sellers finding opportunities that make sense for their personal goals,&#34; said 2026 Florida Realtors® President Chuck Bonfiglio, broker-owner of AAA Realty Group in Plantation. &#34;We're seeing encouraging activity across the market – especially with pending sales rising in both the single-family and condo sectors – a sign that many consumers are continuing to move forward. &#34;In a market like this, working with a local Realtor® who understands pricing trends, inventory and neighborhood conditions can make a real difference for buyers and sellers alike.&#34; Last month, closed sales of existing single-family homes statewide totaled 24,129, up 2.4% year-over-year, while existing condo-townhouse sales totaled 9,309, up 6.9% over April 2025. Closed sales may occur from 30- to 90-plus days after sales contracts are written. According to Florida Realtors Chief Economist Dr. Brad O'Connor, April is the eighth month in a row that closed sales rose year-over-year in both property categories. He noted that, while April's percent increase in closed sales – particularly for single-family homes – is smaller than what has been seen previously during the eight-month streak, this month's pending sales indicate that this positive streak is likely to continue. The number of homes for sale statewide that went under contract in April rose: New pending sales of existing single-family homes were up 8% year-over-year while new pending sales of existing condo-townhouse units increased 14.7% compared to April 2025. &#34;Since homes go under contract typically a month or two before the sale actually closes – particularly if mortgage financing is involved – new pending sales are a leading indicator of what closed sales will be a month or two later,&#34; O'Connor said. &#34;So, looking at April's new pending sales for single-family homes in Florida, that 8% year-over-year increase is more than double the increases we saw in each of the previous two months. As a result, I think we can be pretty confident that our run of rising closed sales will continue into May, and likely June. Only time will tell. &#34;Now, if we look at new pending sales of condos and townhouses, we also get an indication that this property type category will very likely continue to see stronger year-over-year sales growth than single-family homes over the next couple of months, as well. New pending sales of Florida condos and townhouses in April increased by nearly 15%. And, given that housing affordability is still a challenge across the state, other things being equal, condos remain one of the more affordable options in many local Florida markets.&#34; The statewide median sales price for single-family existing homes in April was $420,000, up 1.8% from the previous year, while the statewide median price for condo-townhouse units was $315,000, the same as a year ago, according to data from Florida Realtors Research Department in partnership with local Realtor boards/associations. The median is the midpoint; half the homes sold for more, half for less. Inventory (active listings) for both property categories decreased in April compared to a year earlier. Single-family existing homes were at a 4.7-months' supply while condo-townhouse properties were at an 8.9-months' supply.
