Your Jacksonville market update

Your market this week

Here is what happened in Duval County and St. Augustine.

Residential listings in realMLS (Flexmls), counted Oct. 23, 2026 at about 4:35 p.m. ET. Last 7 days = Oct. 16 to Oct. 23; last 30 days = Sept. 23 to Oct. 23. "St. Augustine" covers St. Johns County listings with a St. Augustine city name. Duval County includes Jacksonville. "Pending/under contract" counts listings that went pending in the window, including those that have since closed. It leaves out listings marked active under contract, so it runs a little low. Closings are often recorded a few days late. Median sold price is for the 30-day window only, so the 7-day rows show n/a. Price-cut counts were not part of this pull, so they are not shown.
