About 0.7 months of inventory — homes are selling faster than new ones come on the market, so sellers hold the leverage (under 4 months = seller's market).

Ryan's Take on Melbourne
Melbourne is the economic engine of the Space Coast, and I point buyers here when stable professional employment matters more than flash. L3Harris Technologies runs its global headquarters from Melbourne, not a satellite office, and Embraer assembles business jets at the airport, with Florida Tech and Holmes Regional Medical Center adding depth. That aerospace, defense, and healthcare base is genuinely recession-resistant, which is why the market behaves steadily rather than speculatively.
What surprises out-of-town buyers is how many distinct lifestyles fit under one postal name. Eau Gallie is an authentic working-artist district of 1920s-50s bungalows, originally platted in 1891 as an arts community, where I see renovation-minded buyers. Lake Washington, Florida's largest fully-contained freshwater lake and the city's drinking-water source, draws serious anglers and boaters to a quieter west-side culture. Downtown's New Haven Avenue offers walkable riverfront character. If you work in aerospace, Patrick Space Force Base is about twenty minutes north and Kennedy roughly forty-five. Compared to Rockledge it's larger and faster-growing; compared to the barrier islands, it trades oceanfront for a much more livable insurance picture.
