Information and statistics on the latest trends in the Lafayette County real estate market. *
September 2026
Monthly data for the latest available year.
Monthly supply and activity totals for the latest available year.
Market gauge is calculated using active listings and pending sales from the most recently available reporting period (Sep 2026).
Lafayette County currently leans toward buyers, with the market gauge signaling a buyer's market at 70. Inventory sits at about three and a half months of supply, which is lower than earlier this year but still offers buyers meaningful choice. Homes are also taking longer to sell, with the median days on market stretching to 125 days.
Prices show a mix of strength and volatility. The typical home value is up sharply year over year, rising more than 60 percent, while the median list price has climbed over 40 percent in the same period even after a double‑digit dip from last month. Compared with Florida overall, Lafayette County’s median sale price now stands higher than the statewide figure, even though the county has fewer listings and closed sales happen on a much smaller scale.
Sales activity has been uneven, with homes sold jumping more than threefold from a year ago but slipping slightly from last month, and pending sales down by about half month over month. No recent sales have closed above list price, and the average sale‑to‑list ratio sits just under 98 percent, suggesting buyers have some room to negotiate while sellers who price correctly can still achieve near‑asking results. Whether you are a buyer looking to capitalize on today’s leverage or a seller trying to stand out in a slower market, Agent Pronto can connect you with an agent who understands these local trends.
Lafayette County offers its residents a close-knit community, strong schools, reliable services, affordable living, and abundant outdoor and agricultural opportunities, all supported by a welcoming, proactive spirit.
Lafayette County offers a quieter, more close-knit lifestyle than busier nearby areas like Alachua County or Columbia County, with a strong sense of local identity rooted in river life, timber, and agriculture. Residents value knowing their neighbors, gathering at school events, and supporting local businesses that define daily life here.
The historic town of Mayo anchors the county, where you will find institutions like Lafayette High School and the Lafayette County Public Library serving as community hubs. Outdoor recreation is a major draw. Paddlers and anglers are drawn to the Suwannee River State Park area just outside the county, while nearby Fanning Springs State Park is a favorite for clear spring water and family outings. Local parks in Mayo provide ballfields, playgrounds, and gathering spots that help maintain a small-town, front-porch rhythm.
Housing here ranges from modest in-town homes to larger tracts with room for livestock, workshops, or simply privacy. Inventory can be limited and properties with river access or productive land often move quickly. Whether you are already a resident considering a sale or a buyer relocating from Gainesville or Tallahassee, timing and preparation are crucial. Agent Pronto connects you with a Lafayette County agent who understands the local market and can guide both buyers and sellers from first questions through closing.

“From Beginning to end of the sales process, Christina was professional and always ready and available to answer our many questions. Our house sold much faster then the average time on market estimates because of the great marketing effort She and her team put together for our house. Highly recommend Christine and her team!”
“We were moving from out of state and Tammy was super helpful with recommendations and information on neighborhoods. Tammy went above and beyond for us each step of the way. Every time we had a question she gave us an answer or looked into things for us and got back quickly with answers. We really appreciate all her time and hard work.”
“Dania is world class”
“Cat Cornish is simply the best! From our initial conversations about possibly moving to the area to the quickly ramped up "we're ready to move now," she has managed the process flawlessly. Buying a home and relocating from another state is stressful, and Cat has made everything as smooth and enjoyable as possible. She has gone above and beyond time and time again! She knows her stuff, communicates well, and gets things done. My family is moving to a place we never thought we could live and into a home that is perfect for our family, and we coudn't have done it without Cat's help.”
“Working with Ben to both sell my home and buy my new one was an outstanding experience from start to finish. Navigating a buy-and-sell transaction at the same time can be overwhelming, but Ben made the entire process feel seamless and manageable. ?On the sale of my home, their pricing strategy, market knowledge, and guidance were spot-on. On the buying side, they were patient, deeply attentive to what I was looking for, and worked hard to make sure everything stayed on schedule. Ben is a true professional, knowledgeable , and genuinely cares about his clients. I couldn't be happier with my new home and highly recommend them to anyone buying or selling!"”
“We’re so happy with our new home and grateful to Nikolas Marulis at Marulis Group, RE/MAX First, for helping us along the way! Nik was approachable, responsive, and always willing to explain the next step. His knowledge of the area helped us feel confident in our decision. I’d happily recommend Nik to anyone looking to buy or sell a home!”
“David Dorman is an exceptional realtor, and we cannot recommend him highly enough! From start to finish, his professionalism, market knowledge, and dedication were outstanding. His team’s marketing exceeded our expectations, from the beautifully produced video showcasing our home to the impressive listing presentation. Every detail was handled with care and expertise. What truly set David apart, however, was his remarkable negotiating ability. His skill in communicating and working with the other agent, advocating for our best interests, and navigating the process was invaluable. He demonstrated confidence, experience, and genuine commitment every step of the way. Selling a home can be stressful, but having David on our side made all the difference. We are incredibly grateful for his hard work and the exceptional service we received. If you’re looking for a realtor who truly knows his business and delivers results, David Dorman is the one!”

“I wish to give the highest most glowing review that I can to Kayla McClean and her staff at Zen Home Group in Winter Park, Florida. I will try to keep this review brief since it would contain volumes of information regarding how amazing of a job Kayla did with the home buying process from start to finish and beyond. She has been the most attentive, helpful, informative, supportive, and available realtor I have ever dealt with. I set out on the path to purchase a home in the Orlando area many months ago and Kayla's involvement with the process from showings, to finding a home, to drafting the offer, to coordinating with the bank I had chosen, to coordinating the home inspections and contractor quotes for repairs, to arranging the closing process, to the actual closing, and then assisting with coordination of contractors even after the sale has been way above and beyond what I would have ever have fathomed. She was always there to consult by text, email or phone and this mattered immensely since I was buying the home while out of state. Home buying is an immensely complicated and nuanced process and Kayla was just there during the whole thing smoothing things out as we went. My particular journey was especially difficult due to the timing of critical events required by a particularly picky bank, being out of state during most of the buying process, and my heavy work schedule, but with Kayla's help, we got it done! When seemingly insurmountable bank related tasks showed up, Kayla and her super personable associates at Zen Home made the most gracious, accommodations during and after hours to get the closing done on time at their office in Winter Park. As I mentioned above I could go on and on about how exceptional my experience was with working with Kayla and I most certainly will be seeking her out again for any other home purchase projects that I may take in the future in the area she serves. If I could give 10 stars to Kayla and her team, I would, I highly recommend Kayla McClean as a realtor to help you on your adventure in buying a home in and around Orlando. My wife and I are so thankful to have met her and to have her secure our newly purchased home.”
“We are so grateful for the care and support our realtor gave our family throughout our home-buying journey. She was kind, attentive, and always there for us whenever we needed her. She made us feel supported during such an important moment in our lives, and that meant so much to us. We wholeheartedly recommend her to any family looking for a caring and dedicated realtor. Thank you for being by our side and helping us work toward our dream of having a home of our own!”
“Richard helped me sell my home for top dollar and find my dream home. He helped me navigate every challenge that comes with buying and selling a house, making the entire experience seamless and stress-free. His professionalism, expertise, and commitment exceeded my expectations, and I highly recommend him to anyone looking to buy or sell a home.”
“Karoline did an amazing job throughout our entire home purchase process. We appreciated her honesty and transparency, and knowledge on how to best navigate this process. As first time home buyers we felt we were in great hands! Also her proactiveness on tackling issues and questions that came up along the way was amazing, before we even asked about something she had already tracked down all of the info! She is amazing at her job and we were lucky to work with her. Thanks so much Karoline! Obrigada!”
“Nancy is knowledgeable, sweet, courteous, helpful, personable, and fun! We love her and cannot recommend her enough! We moved from another state and she made the process painless. Thank you again Nancy!!!!! - Bryan and Sharra”
“Beth did an outstanding job assisting us on finding the perfect home that checked all our boxes. She is professional, knowledgeable, attentive and so kind. She made the process enjoyable. We are thrilled with our new home and have Beth to thank for it!”
“Teresa and Marc are extremely knowledgeable, thorough and professional. We have worked with them a number of times and find them to be a GREAT TEAM to work with. They are very "on top of things" and communicate consistently!”
“Jacqueline & her team made our out-of-state home buying process seamless. They went above and beyond with their services, and they treated us with such care and kindness that our move (with a toddler and a dog!) felt manageable instead of overwhelming. They were responsive, patient, and honest from our first conversation to closing day, and no question was too small. Their knowledge of the area helped us find the right neighborhood from afar, and their negotiation got us a great deal on our home. We love our new home and couldn’t have done it without them. Highly recommend!”
“Alex is a top professional. He gets the job done in a speedy manner. I can always get results and information when I need it. I will for sure count on his service in the future. I am very happy with the purchase of my new property. He made the process carefree. I highly recommend him.”
“Millie is the experienced pro you need to sell your home. She knows the market and you can trust her advice. Her attention to detail makes you feel confident and assured your home will sell when you need it. She follows a process in every step along the way to be successful for her client.”
“Brehna and her partner Taylar did a fantastic job through out the sale process of my two properties in Cape Coral, FL. I live in WA state, and they handled everything for me over the phone. Would definitely work with them again if the opportunity comes up.”
“We are a military family, transferring from another state. Knowing this, and knowing it would be improbable for us to travel to see homes prior to purchasing, Adrian and team was very helpful in all aspects of helping us in purchasing our new home! Their personal touches in understanding our wants and needs made the experience so much smoother. They went above and beyond to ensure our requests were met in a timely manner. We appreciate everything they did to assist us through this normally stressful process. I highly recommend them to anyone planning to purchase a home in the future.”
