St. Croix real estate market update for June 2026 showing sold price and inventory trends

A market that keeps rewarding sellers who price with the data, and buyers who move when the numbers line up.

Opening Snapshot

St. Croix real estate posted a strong June 2026, with median sold prices up across every property type compared to June 2025. Thirty properties closed on St. Croix in June, a 30.43 percent increase year over year, while the median sold price across all property types reached $587,500, up 67.86 percent from June 2025. Single-family homes led the gains, with a median sold price of $995,000, more than double last June’s figure.

Market Overview

June 2026 confirmed what the first half of the year has been signaling on St. Croix: fewer transactions are producing meaningfully higher dollar volume. Thirty properties sold across all property types in June, compared to 23 in June 2025, while new listings held flat at 27. Year to date, St. Croix has recorded 148 sold listings against 237 new listings, and the median sold price for the year now sits at $365,000, up 5.8 percent over the same point in 2025. Average days on market for June came in at 224, up from 157 a year ago, driven largely by longer marketing periods on land and single-family inventory.

The average sold price across all property types reached $1,067,121 in June, a 78.53 percent jump from June 2025’s $597,716. That figure was heavily influenced by a handful of high-value single-family closings, so buyers and sellers alike should look at median price, not average, for the clearest read on typical market activity.

What the Data Means

For real estate St. Croix buyers and sellers, June’s numbers point to a market where well-priced properties are still finding buyers, but timelines have stretched compared to a year ago. Sellers with move-in ready homes in strong locations are commanding premium prices, while buyers willing to be patient through a longer days-on-market window are finding room to negotiate, particularly on land and older inventory.

Single-Family Home Market

Single-family sales on St. Croix reached 19 closings in June, up 5.56 percent from June 2025’s 18. The median sold price climbed to $995,000, a 151.58 percent increase year over year, and the median list price on sold listings hit $1,229,000, up 193.14 percent. New listings dropped 21.05 percent to 15, tightening available inventory even as demand for finished homes stayed strong.

Days on market for single-family properties rose to 186, up 53.72 percent from June 2025’s 121, reflecting the wider range of price points now moving through the market. Year to date, St. Croix has recorded 99 single-family sales against 134 new listings, with the median sold price up 27.5 percent to $510,000.

Condo Market Trends

Condo activity accelerated meaningfully in June, with 11 sales closing on St. Croix, a 120 percent increase over June 2025’s 5. New condo listings rose 50 percent to 12. The median sold price reached $350,000, up 70.73 percent year over year, while the median days on market fell to 176, a 26.67 percent decrease from June 2025’s 240.

Year to date, condo sales on St. Croix total 49 against 103 new listings, with a median sold price of $275,000. The faster turnover in June, paired with fewer year to date sales than 2025’s 67, suggests condo buyers are still selective but moving quickly once they find the right unit.

Land and Acreage Market Trends

Land and acreage sales on St. Croix totaled 15 in June, a 25 percent increase from June 2025’s 12, while new listings rose 60 percent to 24. The median sold price reached $70,000, up 7.69 percent year over year. Days on market for land continues to run longer than other property types, with June’s average at 341 days, up 53.6 percent from June 2025.

Year to date, 69 land parcels have sold on St. Croix against 152 new listings, with a median sold price of $49,000. Land remains the property type with the longest hold times, which continues to create opportunity for buyers comfortable with a longer runway to development or resale.

Inventory and Market Balance

Inventory across all property types on St. Croix has expanded steadily over the past twelve months, with months of supply climbing from 8.2 in July 2025 to a peak of 17.8 in February 2026 before settling near 10.6 in June. A six month supply is generally considered balanced, so St. Croix has moved from a seller-favorable market into more neutral territory, particularly for land and single-family homes, where inventory has grown fastest.

Is Now a Good Time to Buy on St. Croix?

Yes, for buyers prepared to move on the right property. Longer average days on market, particularly in the single-family and land categories, mean buyers have more room to negotiate on price and terms than they did a year ago, while still competing for the best-located and best-priced listings that continue to move quickly.

Is Now a Good Time to Sell on St. Croix?

Yes, particularly for sellers with updated, well-priced homes or condos. Median sold prices are up across every property type compared to June 2025, and condo turnover in particular has accelerated, with days on market down more than 26 percent year over year.

St. Croix Real Estate Market Forecast

Expect continued price strength through the second half of 2026, with inventory growth giving buyers more selection without derailing the upward trajectory in median sold prices. Condo demand appears set to stay strong given the sharp rise in June closings, while land will likely continue to see longer hold times as new listings outpace sales.
