🏑 Volusia County Market Update – July 8, 2025

The Volusia residential market stayed active this past week with 200 new listings, 220 homes under contract, and 114 closed sales. Homes are averaging around 60 days on market, and sellers are receiving 96–97% of list price. It’s a balanced market, favoring buyers slightly due to higher inventory and fewer bidding wars.

Mortgage Rates:
The average 30-year fixed rate is around 6.6%. While still high, rates have dipped slightly. This gives buyers more flexibility while keeping some sellers on the sidelines to hold onto their low-rate loans.

Neighborhood Spotlight:
Buyer interest is trending upward in LPGA International, Latitude Margaritaville, and beachside areas of New Smyrna Beach and Daytona Beach.

Local News:
The new SunRail station in DeLand is boosting regional connectivity and expected to drive long-term property value and development.

πŸ”‘ Key Takeaways

For Buyers:
More inventory means more options. Prices are steady, and many homes are selling below asking. Get pre-approved and negotiate β€” about one-third of listings have had price drops.

For Sellers:
Demand is still strong, but pricing and presentation matter. Price competitively, prep the home well, and consider offering incentives like closing cost assistance or a rate buydown.
