30A Market Pulse: November 2025 Update

Insights from Murray Balkcom, Luxury Realtor & Broker Associate

“With over 20 years dedicated to the South Walton corridor, I can tell you that the November 2025 data confirms the market is finding its footing after the dramatic swings of the past few years. We’re seeing a healthy stabilization that offers clarity for both buyers and sellers.

The headline news is the activity: monthly sales volume is up 11.39% year-over-year, with 176 closed transactions in November. This suggests that serious buyers are engaging, capitalizing on the broader inventory and more rational pricing. On the flip side, the Median Sold Price came in just under a million dollars at $954,220, marking a notable 16.11% decrease from the hyper-inflated figures of November 2024. The price per square foot has also adjusted, dropping by 6.19% to $621. This isn’t a collapse; it’s the high-end market resetting to sustainable levels.

Most importantly, while we still have significant supply—our Months of Inventory (MI) stands at 12.36—that number actually dropped by 10.5% from last year’s peak. This means the increased sales activity is starting to absorb the supply, moving us toward a more balanced long-term environment. For sellers, proper pricing remains paramount; for buyers, the increased choice and softening prices create prime opportunities. The market is normalizing, and that’s good news for everyone.”
