May 2026 St. Johns County Market Update Single-Family Homes and Condominiums The April 2026 market numbers for St. Johns County show a real estate market that continues to move, but with important differences between single-family homes and condominiums. Because each property type behaves differently, it is important to look at them separately rather than comparing one directly to the other. In this update, we are focusing on four key indicators: closed sales, days on market, active inventory, and months supply of inventory. These metrics help us better understand buyer demand, seller competition, and the overall pace of the market. Single-Family Homes in St. Johns County The single-family home market remained active in April, with several signs of continued buyer engagement. Closed Sales In April 2026, there were 488 closed sales for single-family homes in St. Johns County. That represents a 1.5% increase from March 2026 and a 2.1% increase compared to April 2025. This tells us that buyer activity is still present in the single-family market. While the market is not experiencing a dramatic surge, the increase in closed sales both month over month and year over year shows that homes are continuing to move. For sellers, this is a positive sign, but it does not mean every property will sell easily. Buyers are still paying close attention to price, condition, location, and overall value. Days on Market Single-family homes spent an average of 32 days on market in April. That is a 31.9% improvement from March, meaning homes sold much faster than they did the month before. However, compared to April 2025, days on market were still 10.3% higher. This suggests that the market picked up momentum from March to April, but buyers are still taking slightly longer to make decisions than they were a year ago. For sellers, this reinforces the importance of coming to market with a strong strategy. Proper pricing, strong presentation, professional marketing, and easy access to information can make a meaningful difference. Active Inventory Active inventory for single-family homes reached 1,877 homes in April. That is up 15.8% from March, but still down 18.4% compared to April 2025. This creates an interesting market dynamic. Buyers had more choices in April than they did the month before, but still fewer choices than they had at the same time last year. For buyers, the increase in inventory may create more opportunity and room to compare options. For sellers, it means competition is increasing month over month, making it even more important to stand out. Months Supply of Inventory The single-family market had 3.8 months supply of inventory in April. That is up 14.1% from March, but down 20.1% from April 2025. Months supply gives us a broader look at the balance between supply and demand. While inventory increased from the previous month, the market still has less available supply than it did a year ago. Overall, the single-family home market appears more balanced than soft. There is more inventory for buyers to consider, but supply remains below last year’s levels. Sellers still have opportunity, but strategy matters. Condominium Market in St. Johns County The condominium market told a different story in April. This segment had some month-over-month softening in sales, while still showing meaningful improvement compared to last year. Closed Sales In April 2026, there were 52 closed sales for condos in St. Johns County. That is down 13.3% from March, but up 23.8% compared to April 2025. This shows that condo sales slowed from the previous month, but activity remained stronger than it was a year ago. Because the condo market is a smaller segment, monthly changes can appear more pronounced. The year-over-year improvement is encouraging and suggests that buyer demand for condos is still present, especially for properties that are well-positioned in the market. Days on Market Condos spent an average of 55 days on market in April. That is a significant improvement from March, with days on market down 38.1% month over month. However, compared to April 2025, condo days on market were still 23.9% higher. This tells us that condo buyers moved much more quickly in April than they did in March. Still, compared to last year, condo listings are generally taking longer to sell. For condo sellers, this highlights the importance of understanding buyer expectations. Pricing, property condition, monthly fees, rental rules, location, and building or community amenities can all influence buyer confidence. Active Inventory There were 250 active condo listings in April. That is up 2.5% from March, but down 38.7% compared to April 2025. Month over month, condo inventory was relatively stable. Year over year, however, available inventory was significantly lower. This tighter supply can help support well-positioned listings, but it does not remove the need for strong pricing and marketing. Buyers in the condo segment are often evaluating not only the unit itself, but also the financial and lifestyle details of the community. Months Supply of Inventory The condo market had 4.8 months supply of inventory in April. That is up 18.2% from March, but still significantly lower than April 2025. This is one of the more notable shifts in the condo market. A year ago, the condo market had much more supply relative to demand. Today, supply has tightened considerably, even though it increased from the previous month. For sellers, that year-over-year tightening can create opportunity. For buyers, it means that desirable condos may still attract attention when priced and presented well. What This Means for Buyers and Sellers The April numbers show that both segments of the St. Johns County real estate market are active, but they are moving differently. For single-family homes, closed sales increased, homes sold faster than last month, and inventory rose. However, overall supply remains lower than it was a year ago. For condominiums, closed sales softened from March but remained stronger than last year. Days on market improved significantly from the previous month, and inventory remains much tighter than it was one year ago. The biggest takeaway is that real estate remains highly local and property-specific. A single-family home in one neighborhood may perform very differently from another. A condo near the beach may have a different buyer pool than a condo further inland. Pricing, condition, location, amenities, financing considerations, and lifestyle appeal all matter. Final Thoughts The April 2026 market data points to a market where opportunities still exist for both buyers and sellers, but strategy is essential. Sellers need to understand their competition, price with intention, and present their property in a way that captures attention. Buyers need to stay informed, understand current inventory trends, and be prepared to act when the right property becomes available. Whether you’re considering a sale, planning a purchase, or evaluating your next investment opportunity, understanding the market is the first step to making a smart decision.
