Zip code 32744 in Lake Helen is close to a balanced market right now: neither buyers nor sellers hold a clear edge. There are 4.1 months of supply here against 4.4 across the four counties we track, and the typical seller is closing at 95.7 percent of their original asking price against 96 percent regionally. Supply favors the seller and the price figure favors the buyer, so the two cancel out.
Months of inventory, also called months of supply, is how long the homes listed for sale would last at the past year's sales pace if nothing new came on the market: 17 active listings in 32744 divided by 4.17 closed sales a month comes to 4.1 months.
The asking price figure is the median close price against the original list price across 50 sales in the last twelve months, so a price cut counts as part of what the seller gave up.
