If you want to know where the opportunities are developing in South Florida real estate, take a look at Coral Springs. A recent Coral Springs News report called it Broward County’s most competitive housing market, and the numbers explain why. During the first quarter of 2026, Coral Springs had just 2.6 months of single-family inventory, the tightest supply anywhere in Broward. In March, inventory was down 34% from a year earlier, and homes were going under contract in a median of only 25 days, the fastest pace in the county. 

And this is not just about single-family homes. Coral Springs condo and townhouse sales jumped an incredible 78% year over year in March, while the median price was only $219,000 compared with $269,700 countywide. That combination of affordability, strong demand and limited inventory is exactly what creates opportunity for buyers, sellers and, most importantly, Realtors who understand what is happening in their own backyard. 

Now look at the bigger Broward picture. The latest June numbers show Broward single-family sales increasing 26.0% year over year, from 1,030 transactions to 1,298. That growth rate actually outperformed both Miami-Dade, where single-family sales increased 16.8%, and Palm Beach County, where they increased 24.9%. Broward total residential sales were also up an impressive 21.1%, while condo sales increased 15.5%. 

What I find even more interesting is that this isn't happening only at the lower end of the market. Broward's $1 million-and-up sales increased 35% in June, while single-family median prices increased to $645,000. Earlier this year, the Coral Springs report was already showing Broward million-dollar sales climbing and strong activity in the $500,000-to-$600,000 condo segment. Demand is showing up at multiple price points. (MIAMI REALTORS® + RWorld)

At the same time, supply is tightening. Broward's total active residential inventory was down 19.5% year over year in June, and single-family inventory dropped more than 24%. That is a very different story from the narrative that South Florida is somehow drowning in homes for sale. In parts of Broward, and especially markets like Coral Springs, buyers are once again competing for good properties. 

This is why Realtors have to stop looking at South Florida as one market. Miami is not Broward. Broward is not Palm Beach. And Coral Springs is not Fort Lauderdale. Opportunities move from neighborhood to neighborhood and price point to price point. The agent who understands those differences can have a completely different year than the agent sitting at home waiting for somebody to call.

For Realtors looking for business, Broward is giving us plenty to work with right now. More sales mean more buyers who need representation, more homeowners who need to understand what their property is worth, more opportunities for listings and more conversations that can turn into transactions. If Coral Springs inventory is shrinking and properties are moving faster, that is not just a statistic. That is a reason to pick up the phone, call your database and start talking about what is happening.

I have always believed that successful Realtors position themselves where the opportunity is going, not where it has already been. Right now, Broward County deserves your attention, and Coral Springs may be one of the clearest examples of why. At CANVAS Real Estate, our job is to make sure our agents understand these changes early, know how to communicate them and turn that knowledge into business. Markets change, opportunities move, and the Realtors who are prepared to move with them are the ones who are going to win.
