Footnote on Data Sources

  • MLS/NEFAR (realMLS) data reflects actual local market activity—trusted by agents and appraisers.

  • Realtor.com (via FRED) offers broader “active listing” counts, but methodology differs; Realtor.com also labels Jacksonville a rising buyer-friendly market in May, with 31.2% YoY inventory growth and nearly 29% of listings seeing price drops.
    New York Post

  • Zillow ZHVI insights are useful for value trends—but not precise sale prices. Only July data is available at metro and county levels.
