St. Johns County January 2026: Median Price Up, Fewer Homes Sold (Freeze Factor?)

St Johns  County Real Estate Market Update January 2026

Includes single family homes in St Johns, St Augustine, Nocatee, Ponta Vedra, Fruit Cove, Orangedale, Switzerland and Julington Creek.

The median sales price rose a little in January 2026 for St Johns County, while there were around 12 less homes sold this month. That seems to be the trend based off of the NAR existing Home Sales Report that was recently released, but I don’t think it’s an issue as many are making it out to be. We did experience a freeze snap that had us Floridians paralyzed by ice and cold, so buying or selling homes was not on the bingo card. Yes, we are that whiny, and I may be exaggerating a little.

Table comparing 2026 and 2025 housing market statistics. Median sales price in 2026 is $537,138, up 1.22% from 2025’s $530,675. Month’s inventory is 5.78 months in 2026 compared to 5.90 months in 2025. Average days on market is 103 days in 2026 versus 100 days in 2025. Original list price to sales price ratio is 94.2% in 2026 compared to 93.6% in 2025.

Median Sales Price: Looking at sold homes it means that half the homes that sold were more than 537,138 and the other half were less than 537,138.

Month’s Inventory: Based on the number of actives and homes that have sold it would take 5.78 months to sell the active homes, if no other homes came on the market. How to determine what type of market we are experiencing:

Buyers’ Market: More than 7 months of Inventory

Balanced Market: From 5-7 months of Inventory

Sellers’ Market: Less than 5 months of inventory

Average Days on the Market: This is the average based on the time the house came on the market until is went under contract.

Original List Price to Sales Price: This is the percentage of what the home sold for compared to what it was originally listed for. Not what it was listed for at the time it went under contract.
