What's actually going on
Daphne is the healthiest market in Baldwin County right now, and it isn't close. A 25% pending ratio — one in four listed homes is under contract — 60 days to sell, and just 3.2 months of inventory.
It's also the value play against Fairhope. The average Daphne sale was $398,357 against Fairhope's $640,916 — a $240,000 difference between two towns fifteen minutes apart, both in the same well-regarded school system.
If you're weighing the two: Fairhope buys you the downtown and the bay. Daphne buys you a faster commute to Mobile, more house for the money, and a market that's actually moving.
If you're selling
With 268 homes listed and about 84 selling a month, you're competing against roughly 3.2 months of inventory. The pending ratio — 25% — 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
268 homes are on the market and only 68 are under contract. At 60 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.
