New data reveals widening gap between oversupplied sunbelt regions and inventory-tight Northeast metros.
MIAMI, FL, UNITED STATES, June 10, 2025 /
EINPresswire.com/ -- As the U.S. housing market diverges in 2025, new data from ForeclosureListings.com highlights a widening divide between oversupplied sunbelt states and tightly constrained northern metros.
In California, inventory has surged 50% year-over-year, while home sales have dropped more than 40% from pandemic highs. Prices began slipping in March, falling 0.44% as supply outpaces demand.
Florida follows a similar trend. A wave of new construction—especially in Tampa, St. Petersburg, and Sarasota—has led to a surplus of vacant homes, reminiscent of pre-2007 patterns. With demand weakening, prices are expected to continue falling into 2025.
By contrast, New York’s housing market remains tight. Statewide inventory fell 5.3% year-over-year in February, hitting the lowest level since 1997. New listings declined nearly 12%, while median prices jumped 15.4%, rising from $378,000 to $436,000.
New York City shows more nuanced dynamics. Inventory dropped 3.5%, yet contract signings rose 10.7%. Manhattan home values climbed 4.2% to $1.13 million, while Brooklyn and Queens saw increases of 4.8% and 12%, respectively.
Further north, Monroe County (Rochester) was ranked the fifth hottest real estate market in the country, spotlighting strong demand in affordable, secondary metros.
“These data points reflect regional rebalancing,” said a ForeclosureListings.com spokesperson. “Markets like California and Florida are correcting after inventory spikes, while New York’s scarcity is driving intense buyer competition.”
At the intersection of these shifts, ForeclosureListings.com remains a trusted source for
distressed and undervalued property listings. The platform now includes both
foreclosure opportunities and non-foreclosure
fixer-uppers through a growing broker network—connecting buyers with affordable real estate options nationwide.
