Brevard County Housing Market: Is the Stability About to Be Tested?

October 16, 2026

Looking at the September housing market numbers, we’re continuing the theme we’ve seen through most of 2026: market stabilization.
Active inventory did tick up slightly from August, but nothing crazy. We currently have 4,208 properties available across Brevard County. That’s still well below last year, when we had more than 5,000 properties for sale.
And we had another month where sales nearly matched last year. There were 1,025 closings in September compared with 1,034 last September. Year to date, we’re only 70 closings behind 2025. That’s less than a 1% difference.
Months’ supply is also looking pretty good. We’re sitting at 4.1 months of inventory compared with 4.85 months last year. That’s the highest we’ve seen since February, but 4.1 months is still a pretty balanced number.
So overall, September looks pretty stable.
But now we have something else to keep an eye on: mortgage rates.

Cocoa Beach Condos: Is Now The Time To Buy?

October 9, 2026

The Cocoa Beach and Cape Canaveral condo market is starting to look pretty interesting. Sales are up, prices have adjusted, condos are selling faster, and inventory is actually a little lower than it was around this time last year.
But if you’re considering buying a condo, price is only part of the equation.
Where is the association with concrete restoration? Are the reserves in order? Are there current or upcoming special assessments? What does the monthly condo fee actually pay for?
Those questions can be every bit as important as how many bedrooms and bathrooms you need, whether you want to be on the ocean or the river, or whether the association allows pets or short-term rentals.
Let’s look at what’s happening in the Cocoa Beach and Cape Canaveral condo market and, more importantly, what buyers should know before purchasing one. … More Cocoa Beach Condos: Is Now The Time To Buy?
