What is the median home price in Longwood, FL?
The August 2026 median sale price for a single-family home in Longwood was $569,250. Among the ten Central Florida markets we track, Longwood ranks number 9 by median sale price, roughly 2% below Oviedo at $581,500 and about 34% above Orlando at $425,000.
A single month of closings is a small sample in most of these markets, so we lead with a three month average rather than a month-over-month change. Across June, July and August the Longwood median averaged $559,417, up 8.45% against the same three months a year earlier. That window smooths the mix of what happened to close and matches the season, which a comparison against last month cannot do.
Median price per square foot was $256. Taken against the median sale price, that implies a typical Longwood transaction of roughly 2,224 square feet. That is a derived figure rather than a reported one, and it is useful mainly as a sanity check on what the inventory in the City of Longwood actually consists of.
One caution on reading a single month. Medians move with the mix of what closed, not only with underlying value. A month in which a handful of higher-priced or lower-priced homes close can shift the median without anything changing for a specific property. Treat the direction across three months as the signal and any single month as noise.
Is Longwood a buyer's or seller's market?
Longwood is currently classified as a seller's market, on 2.50 months of supply. We classify on months of supply: under three months is a seller's market, three to six is balanced, and over six favors buyers. Those thresholds are ours, not the data source's, and we state them so you can judge the label rather than take it on faith.
Across the ten markets we track: 3 seller's markets, 7 balanced markets. Longwood sits at 2.50 months, the tightest end of the ten.
With 126 active listings against 2.50 months of supply, Longwood is absorbing on the order of 50 sales per month. For a seller, that absorption number often matters more than the median, because it describes how much company a listing has rather than what the market did last month.

Price per square foot and median sale price do not always move together, and the gap between them is usually a lot-size and product story rather than a value story. A market with smaller, older homes on smaller lots can carry a higher per-square-foot figure than a market with a much higher median, simply because the homes are smaller. Read the two columns together rather than either alone.
How long homes are taking to sell
Median days on market for Longwood was 12 in August 2026, against a ten-market median near 21.5. Sellers received a median of 99.1% of their last list price.
This is median cumulative days on market straight from Stellar MLS, so it counts the days a listing sat before going under contract rather than an estimate. Read it next to percent of last list price. A market that sells quickly and close to ask is tight; one that sells quickly only after reductions is not, and the two numbers together tell you which you are looking at.
What this means if you are selling
With 126 active listings and 2.50 months of supply, the pricing decision carries real weight. At roughly 50 absorptions a month against that inventory, a Longwood listing is not scarce simply by virtue of its address.
The practical consequence is that the first two weeks of exposure do most of the work. An aspirationally priced listing rarely gets corrected by a competing offer; it accumulates days and invites a reduction. If you are weighing a number, our seller net proceeds calculator shows what a given sale price actually returns after commission and closing costs, and you can request an address-level valuation rather than working from a market-wide median.
What this means if you are buying
Inventory is tighter here than in the rest of the region, so well-priced homes still move quickly. 126 active listings and 12 median days on market describe the market as a whole, not any particular street.
Submarkets inside Longwood behave differently from the aggregate. Waterfront, gated, and golf-adjacent inventory can stay tight while a broader median softens, and the reverse happens too. A market-level supply figure will not tell you what is happening on a specific block.
