Palm Beach Inventory Takes a Dip After Spring Surge

After months of climbing, active listings in Palm Beach County are finally cooling off. Inventory peaked in March 2025 with 16,110 properties on the market. By May, that number dropped to 14,748. That is a 6.4 percent decline in just two months. So what does this shift mean for buyers and sellers?

This dip marks the first notable decline since mid-2024. After a steady rise in inventory through the end of last year and into early 2025, May’s pullback could signal a shift in market momentum heading into summer.

For buyers, fewer listings may mean more competition ahead. Homes could start to move faster as supply shrinks, especially in popular price points and neighborhoods.

For sellers, declining inventory can work in your favor. With fewer homes on the market, well-prepared listings may attract stronger interest and better offers.

As always, local trends matter more than national headlines. If you're planning to buy or sell, staying informed is key.
