“I can’t imagine there’s a better agent on Earth than Barrett. We first met him while casually exploring a move from San Diego to Florida, just walked in the office he works at—no pre-approval, probably not looking like serious buyers. Still, he treated us like top-priority clients from day one and always took us at our word. For 2 years, before we were even approved, Barrett stayed committed and worked hard for us the entire time. Within 2 weeks of approval, we bought a home that lined up with the intentions we had been projecting all along—proving we were serious all along. His only “weakness” is that his patience and work ethic are so strong they could be taken advantage of. No doubt in my mind: Barrett is the best. He deserves a medal.”

St. James City real estate Market Report.
Information and statistics on the latest trends in the St. James City real estate market, updated for April 2026. *
St. James City saw 91 homes on the market in March 2026, with 15 new listings coming on and 17 going under contract, signaling steady movement through the pipeline. With 5.4 months of supply and a neutral market gauge of 54, buyers and sellers are negotiating on relatively even footing.
Prices are adjusting as activity flows through the market, with the typical home value at about $550,000 and the median list price much higher at $699,000. Year over year, typical values are down 9.09 percent, but month over month they jumped 12.13 percent, while list prices climbed 33.14 percent, and only about 5.88 percent of recent sales closed above the asking price.
Looking ahead to April 2026, projected numbers suggest a typical home value of roughly $579,750, a median list price near $786,000, and inventory edging slightly lower to 89 homes. In contrast, Lee County’s typical value sits around $360,000 with higher overall inventory at 11,165 homes, highlighting St. James City’s relatively higher price point and tighter selection. Homes are taking time to move at a median of 104 days on market, yet pending sales are up 21.43 percent year over year and new listings have risen 66.67 percent, so both buyers and sellers can benefit from an Agent Pronto–recommended agent to navigate this shifting landscape.
Market gauge is calculated based on the the number of active listings divided by home sales over the most recently available reporting period.
