According to the latest MLS statistics from the REALTORS® Association of Indian River County (prepared February 13, 2026), comparing January 2026 to January 2025:
Single-Family Detached Homes — The Star of the Show
- Closed Sales: 256 units in January 2026 — up dramatically from 171 units in January 2025 (a whopping ~50% increase!).
- Median Sale Price: $423,125 in January 2026 — up from $390,500 in January 2025 (solid appreciation of about 8%).
- Active Inventory: 1,863 homes currently available — up significantly from 1,312 last year.
This means more homes are selling at higher prices even as more options hit the market. Buyers are jumping in, and values are holding strong — classic signs of a market gaining serious momentum.
Condominium Homes — A Different Story
- Closed Sales: 70 units in January 2026 — up from 52 units in January 2025.
- Median Sale Price: $185,250 in January 2026 — down notably from $275,750 in January 2025.
- Active Inventory: 986 condos available — up from 873 last year.
The condo segment shows adjustment — higher inventory and softer prices create opportunities for buyers hunting value, while sellers may need sharp pricing to move units quickly.
Overall, the single-family side is driving the excitement in Indian River County (including Vero Beach and surrounding areas). Sales volume is surging, prices are climbing, and inventory growth is giving buyers more choices without tanking values. This balanced expansion points to a healthy, active market as we move deeper into 2026 — far from the slowdowns seen in some other Florida spots.
Whether you're a buyer ready to lock in before prices climb further, a seller wondering if now's the time to list, or just curious about where the market's headed — these numbers tell a compelling story.
