This chart provides a historical overview of the Months Supply of Inventory in St. Johns County, with the most recent data from May 2025 showing an inventory level of 5.0 months. This marks a significant 33% increase compared to May 2024, when inventory was at 3.8 months.

The months supply of inventory is a key real estate indicator that reflects how long it would take to sell all active listings at the current pace of sales if no new homes were listed. A higher number typically signals more homes available, giving buyers more options and reducing competition. Conversely, a lower number points to tighter inventory and stronger seller advantage.

The shaded blue area on the graph-ranging from 5 to 7 months-represents a balanced market, where neither buyers nor sellers have a clear advantage. As of May 2025, the market is approaching this balance after several years of volatility. Notably, the inventory plummeted during 2020 and 2021 due to pandemic-related disruptions, reaching historic lows below 2 months. Since then, inventory has gradually recovered, with noticeable peaks in early 2024 and early 2025.

The current trend indicates that the St. Johns County market is transitioning from a strong seller’s market toward a more equitable environment, potentially creating better opportunities for buyers—especially those frustrated by recent years of low inventory and intense competition.
