Boca Grande Weekly Real Estate Update

Boca Grande Real Estate Market Review: 2025 in Perspective The Boca Grande real estate market in 2025 was defined by adjustment rather than disruption. After several years of historically tight inventory and rapid appreciation, the market spent much of 2025 recalibrating—giving buyers more options, requiring greater pricing discipline from sellers, and restoring a more balanced negotiating environment. A Note on Gulf Coast Storm Impacts and Recovery The broader Gulf Coast entered 2025 still working through the aftereffects of the 2024 hurricane season, including Hurricanes Helene and Milton. Regional cleanup efforts, insurance evaluations, and repair timelines extended into early 2025 and influenced how and when some properties came to market. Buyer decision-making was more deliberate during this period, particularly in the first part of the year. As recovery progressed, market activity increasingly reflected underlying fundamentals rather than storm-related hesitation. Inventory Expanded, Shifting Leverage Toward Buyers By December 2025, there were 99 residential properties actively for sale on Boca Grande—an increase of 65% compared to the prior year. This marked a meaningful shift from the extremely low inventory conditions seen in earlier years. Sales Activity Remained Selective, Not Weak Total closed sales for 2025 reached 60 transactions. Pending sales rose more than 36% year-over-year, signaling improved buyer engagement as the year progressed. Price Per Square Foot Stabilized After Prior Volatility The average sold price per square foot in December 2025 was $1,613, reflecting market normalization rather than broad price erosion. Median Prices Reflected Transaction Mix The December 2025 median sold price was $4.45 million, while the full-year median was $2.075 million, influenced by fewer ultra-high-end sales. Properly Priced Homes Moved Quickly Homes that sold in December averaged just 9 days on market, with sellers achieving approximately 96% of original list price. Inventory Levels Confirmed a Buyer’s Market Months of inventory ended December 2025 at 24.8 months, firmly establishing buyer leverage. The Bottom Line The 2025 Boca Grande real estate market was selective and measured. Inventory increased, buyers became more deliberate, and pricing precision mattered.
