As we wrap up 2025, Florida’s housing market continues to prove its resilience despite a shifting economy, higher construction costs, and elevated interest rates. As new home construction continues to soar, Florida remains one of the strongest and most dynamic real estate markets in the country.
According to new data from ResiClub Analytics,
housing inventory across the state has officially climbed back above pre-pandemic levels, a sign that the market is finally finding balance after five years of volatility. At the same time,
home prices have started to ease slightly as more new homes enter the market and builders continue to close the supply gap. These two factors are bringing much-needed stability to the market, which should be a major relief for buyers.
As inventory grows and price growth slows, Florida is well positioned to enter a longer-term era of sustained growth, and much of this is due to accelerated new construction pipelines fueled by the new infrastructure created by Jobalia Development Group.
Balance Is Returning To The Florida Real Estate Market
Low inventory and accelerating price growth have been the story across the nation and Florida for the last four years. Pandemic-era migration, supply chain constraints, and high demand created by low inventory and high prices ultimately created a strong seller’s market that lasted for years. To add further complexity, homeowners who locked in an ultra-low rate during the pandemic are reluctant to give it up, exacerbating the inventory problem across the nation.
2024 and early 2025 were characterized by rapid adjustments such as interest rate volatility, supply chain issues, and construction cost pressures. However, the market finally turned a corner in mid- to late 2025 due to three main factors:
- Inventory: According to ResiClub, Florida listings are up more than 12% year over year and it’s one of the few states where active listings surpassed 2019 levels. The increased inventory has begun to thaw the frozen market by giving buyers more options.
- Pricing: National home prices rose 1.7% year over year, while Florida prices remained flat. Housing in Florida is experiencing a bit of a correction due to an increase in new home construction. This trend is bringing some much-needed relief to affordability challenges buyers have faced for several years.
- New Homes: The large volume of new construction is the driving force behind the market stabilization. Builders and developers are delivering new communities faster than ever before, especially in Central Florida where land availability is higher.
Higher inventory and flat pricing are not signs of waning demand. In fact, demand for new homes in Florida is showing no signs of slowing down any time soon as hundreds of thousands of people migrate to the Sunshine State every year. Rather, sustained development is finally catching up to population growth due to greater supply chain efficiencies.
Builder-Developer Partnerships Are Fueling Inventory Growth Across Florida
Maintaining a balance between supply and demand in this market requires significant investment and new construction. Developing land at scale in Florida is complicated, as strict regulations, zoning requirements, and municipal policies can significantly slow progress. It can be challenging for homebuilders to navigate this stage of the development process, and it’s often what slows down residential pipelines.
This is why some of the nation’s largest homebuilders have found success partnering with infrastructure development firms like Jobalia Development Group. These partnerships enable homebuilders to offload the infrastructure phase to an experienced partner who can navigate the administrative and regulatory components of a new build. That ultimately allows homebuilders to focus on actually building homes.
One unique advantage Florida has compared to many other U.S. markets is strong partnerships between the nation’s largest homebuilders and local infrastructure development firms. Standing up new homes on developed land is fairly straightforward, but building new communities with utilities, roads, and infrastructure is time-consuming and expensive. As a result, these partnerships have become necessary to keep up with the booming demand and annual population growth, while also allowing builders to maintain healthy balance sheets.
Jobalia Development Group, one of Florida’s leading infrastructure development firms, has been helping to fuel this market transformation. With decades of infrastructure development experience and strong partnerships with some of the nation’s largest homebuilders, Jobalia’s team of industry experts helps transform raw land into ready-to-build communities, accelerating the pace at which new homes enter the market. This assembly line approach to residential construction is paying off in a big way.
How Jobalia Development Group Helps Builders Keep Pace With Demand
Keeping up with demand while maintaining profitability is the primary objective of most large homebuilders in Florida, and that can be challenging when there is a limited amount of ready-to-build land.
Jobalia helps bridge that gap. Through strong relationships with local governments, deep expertise in underground utility development, and some of the industry’s best talent, Jobalia handles the complex groundwork associated with residential development. This includes complicated and time-consuming administrative work such as permitting, platting, and entitlements, which can take many homebuilders months or years to complete. However, Jobalia also specializes in underground utilities, stormwater systems, roads, landscaping, and everything needed to transform raw land into a ready-to-build community.
Jobalia offers a turnkey model that enables homebuilders to accelerate new home construction while limiting risk. This approach also helps firms reduce balance sheet exposure by offloading expensive raw land until it’s ready to build. The end result is a continuous steady pipeline of ready-to-build lots, helping homebuilders keep pace with their production goals. This level of efficiency is absolutely critical to keep up with soaring demand for inventory across the state of Florida.
Looking Ahead To 2026
As we look to close out 2025 on a high note, we expect market stabilization to continue into 2026, which should lay the groundwork for a strong year. Jobalia Development Group plans to keep that momentum going. With several large infrastructure development projects in the works, we’ll be helping top homebuilders accelerate their pipeline and keep pace with growing demand in 2026 and for years to come.
As a result, consumers will benefit from more stability, affordability, and choices in the market. Jobalia Development Group is proud to play an important role in driving growth and improving quality of life by building new communities across the state.
