Valencia Real Estate Market Report | January 2026
December and January saw the real estate market pick up Boca Raton, Delray Beach and Boynton Beach. Interest rates have gone down, the freezing weather up north helped the market pick up. We are seeing a good deal of inventory in the Valencias as well as sales the past couple of months.
Houses have been selling. There is still inventory and deals to be had in the Valencias.
If you’re a buyer who’s been watching and waiting, now is a great time to buy.
Last spring and summer, agents were begging for offers. Now they want to make deals.
There has been a lot of talk about insurance and homes needing new roofs, even more so since the hurricanes parts of Florida experienced last year. This past summer we had no hurricanes! It was a very good year!
Here and there, a home will hit the market that is either new or beautifully redone, at the right price, and it will sell quickly. The key here is it’s a beautiful home that likely doesn’t need a new roof, and it’s listed at the right price.
WHAT’S WITH THE ROOF
If a home has a new roof or is in the process of getting a new roof – it takes time to get permits and order roof tiles – the home will usually sell faster. Of course, you still have to think about location and what the rest of the house looks like, but a roof is a big-ticket item, especially these days. Many buyers would rather have it done than not done.
There are also homes that don’t need roofs simply because they’re newer homes. It’s not time yet for a roof. They’re in one of the newer Valencias.
Read on to find out what went on in each Valencia community in southern Palm Beach County in November. Sales vary by community depending on the model, condition of the home, as well as amount of inventory in the community. There are homes still selling for close to asking or even asking price, but not near as many as we saw in the past few years, and there are homes selling at less than what sellers actually paid. It’s a mixed market.
WHAT ARE THE VALENCIAS
Located in southern Palm Beach County, FL, the Valencias are upscale, pet-friendly 55+ gated communities full of amenities. Think camp for adults.
Each Valencia has a state-of-the-art fitness center, grand clubhouse with pools, social halls, card rooms, cafes for breakfast and lunch, social events, billiards, tennis, pickleball, clubs, cards, Canasta, Mahjong, arts and crafts, and an active lifestyle geared towards today’s baby boomers. The newer Valencias have restaurants, bars and indoor pickleball.
You can be as busy as you want or not. If you’re the type who goes in and out of your garage and never sees the inside of a clubhouse, that’s fine, too. Whatever makes you happy.
