Subject: What's actually happening with Miami home prices this month

Hi [Client Name],

I've been tracking the latest housing numbers for the Miami area (August 2026), and there are a few interesting shifts worth knowing if you own property here or are planning a move.

Miami Snapshot as of August 2026

  • Typical home value: $475,830 (-0.5% year over year)
  • Median sale price: $480,000 (+4.3% year over year)
  • Days to pending: 98 days (+1.0% year over year)
  • Sold above asking: 9.5% (+2.1 pts year over year)
  • Homes for sale: 48,328 (-14.3% year over year)
  • New listings: 8,487 (-3.0% year over year)
  • Typical asking rent: $2,666 (+1.6% year over year)

The typical home in the Miami area is valued at $475,830 as of August 2026. That is 0.5% below where it sat a year ago, when the same figure was $478,005.

Homes are taking about 98 days to go under contract, compared with 97 days this time last year. 9.5% of sales are closing above the asking price, up from 7.4% a year ago.

There are 48,328 homes on the market, -14.3% against last year. New listings are -3.0% year over year.

On the rental side, asking rents are around $2,666 a month, +1.6% year over year.

For buyers: the selection is tighter than a year ago, homes are sitting longer before going under contract. What that means for a specific budget and neighbourhood is worth a conversation — these are metro-wide figures.

For sellers: the average time to contract has lengthened. Pricing against what is actually selling nearby matters more in this kind of market than it does in a fast one.

Curious what this means for your specific home or neighborhood? Just hit reply — I'm happy to run a quick 2-minute street-level estimate for you, no pressure at all.

Best,

Two things this page cannot supply: what is happening on your own street, and how to word the ask at the end. The first is why your clients hired you rather than opening Zillow. The second is covered once, properly, in the guide on the main template page — repeating it here in twenty slightly different ways would not make it truer.

What Miami’s government decided recently

Market data describes what already happened. These are decisions that shape what happens next, and they are the part of a market update a national newsletter cannot write for you. Pick one, add a sentence on what it means for the street it is on, and the update stops reading like everyone else’s.

Affordable housing

Bond measures, inclusionary requirements and housing-authority funding change both the supply that arrives in two to five years and what a developer must include to get an approval. Inclusionary percentages in particular feed straight into the price of the market-rate units that carry them.

Property taxes and fees

Rate settings, reappraisal plans, impact fees and exemption changes hit carrying cost directly. A buyer qualifying at the top of their budget can be pushed out by a millage change that never touches the sale price, and reappraisal cycles routinely surprise sellers who priced against last year's assessment.

Frequently asked questions

Can I use this Miami, FL update with my clients immediately?

Yes. All numbers are pre-filled directly from official Zillow Research data for the Miami, FL metro area. You can personalize with your name and brokerage, copy your preferred format (Email, Social, Video, or SMS), and send it out immediately.

How often are these Miami numbers refreshed?

Monthly, as soon as Zillow Research releases their updated data files. Sale prices and inventory typically settle about four weeks after month-end to reflect recorded county transactions.

Why do you provide video and SMS scripts alongside the email?

Because different clients consume content in different places. Past clients and referral spheres engage heavily with monthly emails, while social followers on Instagram/TikTok respond to 60-second video breakdowns. Cold leads in your CRM are best re-engaged with a short 2-sentence text message.

Is this data for the city of Miami or the whole metro area?

The whole metro area (Miami, FL). Metropolitan statistical areas cover surrounding suburbs and commuter counties. We recommend adding a quick one-sentence note about what you are seeing on your specific street or neighborhood.
