June 2025 Market Recap: 30A West Is Holding Its Own (For Now)
From Blue Mountain and Dune Allen to Gulf Place and Grayton, the west side of 30A is doing that low-key power move thing this summer. While the rest of the market flirts with a cooldown, 30A West is sending mixed signals—so let’s decode what really happened in June.
🏘️ Inventory's Up, But Not Out of Control
Inventory is creeping up—9% higher than this time last year. It's not a flood, but it’s enough to give buyers a little breathing room.
That said, the number of homes sold is down 41% year-over-year. And total sales volume? Also down, by nearly 27%. TL;DR: homes are stacking up, but buyers are hesitant to pull the trigger—probably waiting for prices to blink first.
💰 Median Prices Are Still Climbing
Surprisingly, median sales prices were up 18%, landing at just under $1.8M. So even with fewer homes selling, the ones that are selling are still commanding top dollar.
Worth noting though: price per square foot dipped slightly, down about 3.5%. That signals buyers are paying more overall, but they’re also getting more space for their money than last summer.
⏳ Homes Are Taking Longer to Sell
Last year, homes were gone in a blink. This year? Expect about two months on market before the right buyer comes along—almost double the average from last year.
🛍️ What This Means If You’re Buying
More inventory = more leverage. If you're shopping for your 30A beach house, this might be your season to negotiate extras, time your close perfectly, or grab a property that would’ve been snapped up in hours back in 2022.
🔑 What This Means If You’re Selling
You're still in a strong position if you price realistically. Buyers are cautious, but if you’ve got a home in a prime neighborhood with beach access and solid finishes, you’re still playing with a strong hand.
Final Takeaway
30A West is cooling—but gracefully. It’s not tanking, it’s recalibrating. For buyers, it’s an opening. For sellers, it’s a nudge to get strategic. Either way, this summer’s market has layers.
