Market Trends
Inventory
Inventory in East Delray remains tight but has improved from the 2022–2023 lows. Current supply is roughly 2–3 months in most segments, which still favors sellers but gives buyers more options and negotiating room than they've had in several years. Condo inventory has been increasing more than single-family homes.
Days on Market
Well-priced, well-presented properties in good locations are still moving. Average days on market have stretched from 30–45 days (peak market) to 60–90 days, which is closer to historical norms. Properties that need significant work or are priced above comparable sales are sitting longer.
Price Trends
Values have held reasonably steady since the 2022 peak, with modest appreciation in the 3–5% range year-over-year for well-positioned properties. The neighborhoods closest to Atlantic Avenue and the beach have shown the strongest price resilience. The condo market has been more volatile, with some buildings seeing price adjustments due to reserve funding requirements from Florida's post-Surfside legislation.
Interest Rate Impact
Higher interest rates have cooled the market from its peak frenzy, particularly for entry-level buyers who are more rate-sensitive. Cash buyers — who make up a meaningful share of East Delray transactions — have been less affected. Move-up buyers and investors with equity are still active. The market has adjusted, not collapsed.
What This Means for Buyers
For buyers, the 2026 market offers a more balanced environment than the past few years. You have more inventory to choose from, more time to make decisions, and more room to negotiate on price and contingencies. The key is moving quickly on the best properties — the best-located, best-presented homes still attract multiple offers.

What This Means for Sellers
For sellers, pricing right has never been more important. The days of "list it high and wait for a bidding war" are over. Homes that are priced competitively, well-staged, and in good condition are selling. Overpriced properties sit on the market and then sell below what they would have fetched with a realistic list price.
