North Port Answers the Big Question | July 2026 Update header image.

Last month North Port flipped to a seller's market for the first time in over a year and a half. The question everyone had: was that a fluke, or the start of something real? July has an answer, and it comes with a twist most people won't see coming. North Port held its seller's market status for a second straight month, with months of inventory dipping from 4.8 to 4.7. But new listings actually picked up this month, and the median sale price is still down year over year, so this isn't the frenzy some are expecting. In this North Port market update, we break down what's really happening and what it means whether you're buying, selling, or staying put.

 

Here is what happened in North Port in July 2026:

 

Months of inventory fell to 4.7, officially a seller's market for the second month in a row

One year ago, North Port sat at 6.19 months, a balanced market

Active inventory hit its lowest point we've tracked in over a year at 842 homes

New listings rose to 188 (up from 172 in June), while 171 homes sold

Sellers collected 98% of asking price, up from 96% a year ago

Median sold price: $313,000, actually down 6% from a year ago
