Lehigh Acres September Market Update –Josh Bohling - LPT Realty SW FL

As we head into September, the Southwest Florida real estate market continues to present a dynamic landscape. Key trends include shrinking inventory and downward pressure on prices, though we are observing early signs of stabilization.
Several external factors could significantly impact the market's trajectory:
  • Federal Level: Ongoing discussions about potential cuts to the Fed rates.
  • State Level: Proposals to eliminate property taxes.
  • Economic Boost: A notable surge in Florida's tourism sector.
These elements combined suggest a pivotal moment for the SWFL market. It will be interesting to see how they influence buyer and seller behavior in the coming months. But the local Lehigh Acres numbers tell the real story...

Closed sales, median sales price, median sold price per square foot, and list-to-sale ratio all decreased. Active inventory, new listings, median days on market, and months of supply saw substantial increases, indicating a strong shift towards a buyer's market with significantly more options and negotiation power.


📍 Lehigh Acres – Condos & Townhouses (August 2025 vs 2024)

📈 Closed sales: 6 (down 60.0%)
📦 Active inventory: 116 (up 38.1%)
🏡 New listings: 23 (down 14.8%)

📊 Months of supply: 19.3 (up 245.2%)
🔻 List-to-sale ratio: 97.0% (down 1.1%)

✅ Takeaway: The Lehigh Acres condo/townhouse market in August 2025 shows a dramatic shift towards a buyer's market. While the median sales price saw a slight increase, closed sales plummeted significantly. Active inventory and months of supply increased substantially, indicating an abundance of options for buyers. The decrease in median days on market suggests that the few properties that are selling are doing so quickly, but overall, buyers have considerable leverage due to the high supply and low demand.


🧠 What Does It All Mean?

Single Family Homes → The Lehigh Acres single-family market in August 2025 is clearly a buyer's market, characterized by significant increases in active inventory, new listings, median days on market, and months of supply, coupled with decreases in closed sales and median sales prices. This provides buyers with numerous choices and strong negotiation power.

Condos/Townhomes → The Lehigh Acres condo/townhouse market in August 2025 is also heavily favoring buyers, with a massive increase in months of supply and a sharp decline in closed sales. Despite a slight increase in median sales price, the overall market dynamics indicate that buyers have extreme leverage due to the high inventory and low transaction volume.

 


👉 The takeaway: Lehigh Acres offers significant opportunities for buyers in August 2025. Both single-family homes and condos/townhouses are experiencing a strong shift towards a buyer's market, with increased inventory and longer selling times (for single-family homes) or dramatically reduced sales (for condos/townhouses). This creates an environment where buyers can find competitive deals and negotiate favorable terms. Whether you’re looking for a single-family home or a condo, conditions are highly favorable for buyers, and inventory is readily available.
