Venice Just Broke Its Own Record — Again | July 2026 Update

Venice just broke its own record for the second month in a row. Last month it hit its deepest seller's market reading ever at 3.6 months of inventory. That record didn't even last 30 days. In July, Venice fell to 3.1 months, and inventory dropped below 850 homes for the first time. Here's the twist: with a market this tight, you'd expect prices to be climbing. They're not. In this Venice market update, we break down the numbers, the honest part about pricing, and what it means whether you're buying, selling, or staying put.

Here is what happened in Venice in July 2026:

Months of inventory fell to 3.1, the deepest seller's market of any city we track

Six straight months of decline since January, and down from 5.6 months a year ago

Active inventory dropped to 827 homes, down 32% from a year ago

New listings fell to 149, down nearly 23% from a year ago

Sellers collected 96% of asking price, up slightly from 95% a year ago

Median sold price: $390,000, actually down about 10% from a year ago
