What’s Trending: April 2026

Team owner Kathryn Stelljes shares the latest Orlando real estate market update, breaking down what happened in March 2026 across Central Florida. Using data from the Orlando Regional Realtor Association, this report highlights current housing trends, home prices, inventory levels, and what buyers and sellers can expect as we move through the spring season.

If you are planning to buy or sell a home in Orlando, understanding these trends can help you make more informed decisions in today’s market.

Orlando Housing Market Overview March 2026

The Orlando housing market is beginning to show signs of a typical spring seasonal shift.

There were 2,360 homes sold in March 2026, which is slightly down compared to the same time last year. The median sales price remained essentially flat, down just 0.13 percent year over year, showing overall price stability.

Pending sales reached 4,144 homes under contract, indicating continued buyer activity heading into the next month. Inventory held steady at around 12,000 homes for sale, resulting in approximately 5 months of supply, which reflects a balanced market across Central Florida.

However, the market is not uniform across all areas. Established neighborhoods closer to downtown Orlando are still seeing steady demand and stronger activity. In contrast, areas farther out, including some short term rental communities, are experiencing slower movement and more opportunities for buyers.

Orlando Home Prices March 2026

Home prices in Orlando remain stable. The median sales price is $385,000, showing only a slight decrease compared to last year.

This indicates that while the rapid price growth of previous years has slowed, home values are holding relatively steady in today’s market.

Orlando Interest Rates and Buyer Activity

Interest rates continue to influence buyer behavior. As rates increased previously, demand slowed and helped bring the market into a more balanced position.

As we move into spring, we are beginning to see increased activity, including more showings and occasional multiple offer situations, signaling that buyers are re-engaging with the market.

What This Means for Buyers and Sellers in Orlando

The Orlando real estate market is balanced, but strategy matters more than ever.

For buyers, increased inventory provides more choices and greater flexibility when negotiating, especially in areas farther from the city center.

For sellers, pricing correctly is critical. Homes that are priced based on outdated market conditions may sit longer, while those positioned strategically are still selling successfully.

The current average days on market is just over 75 days, but with the right approach, homes do not have to take that long to sell.

Orlando Real Estate Market Forecast 2026

As we continue through the spring season, the Orlando housing market is expected to remain active.

Seasonality typically brings increased activity, and current trends suggest continued buyer engagement alongside steady inventory levels. Overall, the market is expected to remain balanced, with conditions varying depending on location and pricing strategy.
