March in Key Largo always feels like the true start of spring—warmer breezes, longer days, and a real sense that something good is on the horizon. This year, the real estate market is no different.

What This Means for Buyers
With inventory climbing and homes spending a bit longer on the market (about four months on average), buyers have more breathing room. If you’ve been waiting for the right time to jump in, this could be it.
When I think about growing up here—spending weekends catching mangrove snapper, snorkeling around Alligator Reef, and cruising the backcountry—I’m reminded that buying a home in Key Largo isn’t just a transaction; it’s about investing in a lifestyle. It’s about afternoons on the boat, quiet sunsets over the Bay, and having a piece of paradise to call your own.
Right now, there’s a real window of opportunity to find that perfect fit—whether it’s a waterfront home with deep-water dockage or a cozy inland cottage tucked away near your favorite sunset spot.
What This Means for Sellers
The good news? The average sale price jumped by nearly 10% compared to last year, and the median sale price held strong. Key Largo’s name still carries major weight with buyers from around the world who dream of owning a home here.
But with more listings coming to market, smart pricing and strong presentation matter now more than ever. Growing up in a family of real estate brokers and builders, I learned early on that every home has a story—and when you tell that story the right way, it resonates with the right buyer.
If you’re thinking about selling, now’s the time to position your property to stand out in this growing pool of options.
A Market in Motion
While Key Largo still moves at its own laid-back pace (we call it “island time” for a reason), the real estate market is definitely shifting. Inventory is up. Buyers are taking their time. And properties that are priced well and showcased properly are the ones setting the pace.
The secret to success? Local knowledge. Knowing the neighborhoods, the canal depths, the best sandbars, the fishing holes—and how those little details can make a big difference in the value of a property. That’s the kind of insight that only comes from living it, year after year.
