Despite headlines about shrinking activity, July brought an interesting mix of changes for St. Johns County real estate. Single-family home sales actually climbed 5.4%, even as new contracts dropped by 34% and there were 28% fewer listings available. The median price remained steady at $589,060, with inventory down 27% and homes moving in a median of just 33 days. Pending sales also saw a 36% decline. In my experience representing sellers and buyers—especially those in the military community—these figures reflect a market demanding careful strategy and steady guidance. Navigating this kind of landscape calls for discipline, clear communication, and a deep understanding of local trends. That’s how I approach every transaction, ensuring clients feel supported and informed every step of the way.
