In Delray Beach, condos and single-family homes aren't just different price points — they're different markets entirely. Single-family supply sits at 3.4 months; condo supply is 5.6. Single-family sellers are getting 93.7% of list price; condo sellers are getting 89.0%.
Why the gap exists
Single-family inventory dropped 30% over the past year while condo inventory dropped less sharply, from 1,329 to 977 units. Fewer houses are chasing more buyers, while condos still have more room to negotiate.
What it means if you're deciding between the two
A single-family search in Delray right now moves fast and leaves less room to negotiate on price. A condo search moves at a more relaxed pace, with more inventory to compare and slightly more flexibility on price. Neither is right or wrong — it depends on whether speed or selection matters more to you.
