What’s actually going on

Orange Beach moved up 2% since last month’s read, to an average sale of $966,056. The pending ratio — the share of listed homes already under contract — is 8%, up from 7% a month ago.

Homes take an average of 119 days to sell (77 days at the median), and there are 6.4 months of inventory on the market.

This is what a resort market looks like. Much of the inventory is second homes and rental units whose owners have no deadline, so the leverage sits with buyers and a seller who needs to move by a date should price for it rather than hope.

The gap between the average ($966,056) and the median ($731,000) tells you how much the high-end sales pull the average up.

If you’re selling

With 630 homes listed and about 99 selling a month, you’re competing against roughly 6.4 months of inventory. The pending ratio — 8% — is the number to watch: it’s the share of listed homes that have actually found a buyer, and it tells you more about current conditions than the average price does.

If you’re buying

630 homes are on the market and only 50 are under contract. At 119 days to sell, anything that’s been listed longer than that is worth an offer below asking.

A note on this data: Baldwin County figures come from AreaPro and cover a rolling six-month period using averages, while our Florida city reports use single-month medians from the Pensacola MLS. The two aren’t directly comparable — averages run higher than medians, and a six-month window smooths out short-term movement. Compare Baldwin cities to each other, and Florida cities to each other.
