Apopka’s 90-day median asking price has not posted a single weekly increase since August 21, falling from $495,000 to $464,999 over eleven readings. Fifty-one percent of the homes listed right now have already cut their price, against 2 percent that raised one. The Market Action Index sits at 34, below the 35 that Altos itself calls the start of a seller’s market. If you are listing in Apopka this winter, the number you choose has to beat half the market that already guessed wrong.
The line that has stopped going up
Altos Research publishes two asking-price medians for every market it covers. The 7-day median is the midpoint of list prices in a single week, so a few unusual listings can swing it. The 90-day median spans the trailing quarter and moves slowly, which makes it the better read on direction.
Apopka’s 90-day median reached $495,000 in late July 2026 and held there for five straight weeks through August 21. Across the eleven weekly readings since, it declined nine times, held flat twice and rose zero times, finishing at $464,999 for the week ending November 6, 2026. That is a drop of $30,001, or 6.06 percent, in under three months. One year earlier, on November 7, 2025, the same line stood at $485,000, so the market is 4.12 percent below where it was last fall.

What 51 percent price cuts tell a seller
Altos tracks what share of the currently active listings have changed their asking price. In Apopka this week, 51 percent have cut, 2 percent have raised and 7 percent have been relisted. Those are not predictions. Each one is a seller who picked a number, watched it fail, and moved.
Set that against how long the standing inventory has been sitting. Altos measures days on market across listings that are active right now, so it describes the age of current supply rather than how long a sale takes. The citywide median is 63 days and the average is 111, which means a long tail of listings has been out there far longer than the typical one.
The practical consequence is that your launch price competes with homes that have already been marked down, and buyers browsing Apopka can see the cut history on half of them.
Which Apopka you are actually in
Apopka’s citywide report is not one market. Altos publishes reports for three Apopka ZIP codes, and only two carry data: 32703 to the south and 32712 to the north. The third, 32704, returns “Inventory currently too low for a market report” with every profile line blank, which is what a PO Box ZIP looks like. The arithmetic confirms the split cleanly. Inventory of 181 in 32703 plus 172 in 32712 equals the citywide 353 exactly, and the two ZIPs’ quartile tables add to the citywide 28 new and 33 absorbed listings without a remainder.
| Measure | 32703 (south) | 32712 (north) |
|---|---|---|
| Median list price | $424,900 | $494,950 |
| Median price of new listings | $459,000 | $495,000 |
| Price per square foot | $222 | $215 |
| Median days on market | 56 | 91 |
| Average days on market | 87 | 135 |
| Share with a price decrease | 55% | 47% |
| Inventory | 181, increased | 172, decreased |
| New vs absorbed listings | 17 new, 11 absorbed | 11 new, 22 absorbed |
| Market Action Index | 33 | 34 |

The headline gap looks like a quality gap. A median of $494,950 in 32712 runs 16.49 percent above the $424,900 in 32703. Price per square foot inverts it: 32703 asks $222 and 32712 asks $215. The northern ZIP’s higher median comes from larger houses on larger lots, and its quartile table shows it, with two top segments on quarter-acre-to-half-acre lots at 3,215 and 2,716 square feet.
The two ZIPs are also moving in opposite directions on supply. In 32712, 22 listings left the active pool against 11 that joined, and inventory fell to 172. In 32703, 17 joined against 11 that left, and inventory rose to 181. Year over year the 90-day medians split as well: 32712 sits at $494,900 against $511,999 last November, down 3.34 percent, while 32703 is at $425,000 against $420,000, up 1.19 percent.
That is the caution on the citywide figure. It is a median across both ZIP pools combined, so it moves when the balance between them shifts, independent of what either ZIP did on its own. Price your home off your own ZIP’s line.
Reading the Market Action Index without the label
Altos labels Apopka “Slight Seller’s Advantage” at an index of 34, the same label it applies to both ZIPs. The label and the published scale are different things. On Altos’s own scale, an index of around 30 indicates a balanced market, 35 or more points to a seller’s market, and the low 20s or below is a buyer’s market. Apopka at 34 sits between balanced and the seller’s-market threshold without having crossed it.
The citywide index was also 34 a month ago, so the supply-and-demand balance has held while asking prices drifted down. That combination says the correction is coming from sellers resetting expectations rather than from a collapse in buyers.
Where the pressure sits by price band
Altos divides each market into four segments of roughly equal size, ordered by price. The citywide bands show the squeeze concentrated at the top.
| Segment median | Square feet | Beds / baths | Median age | New | Absorbed | Days on market |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| $699,000 | 3,123 | 4 / 3.5 | 11 | 5 | 8 | 91 |
| $499,900 | 2,457 | 4 / 3 | 8 | 11 | 11 | 87 |
| $414,999 | 1,908 | 3 / 2 | 17 | 5 | 8 | 56 |
| $330,000 | 1,361 | 3 / 2 | 38 | 7 | 6 | 52 |
Source: Altos Research, Apopka FL city report, week of November 11, 2026. Each segment is approximately 25 percent of active single-family inventory.
Days on market rise with price in a straight line, from 52 days in the bottom band to 91 in the top, and the $499,900 band carries the heaviest flow of arrivals at 11 new listings in the week. Citywide, the median price of new listings is $459,495, which is 2.11 percent above the $450,000 standing median. Sellers arriving this month are asking more than what is already sitting unsold, and the 51 percent cut rate is what happens next.
The county backdrop, and what it does not tell you
The Orlando Regional REALTOR Association’s most recent published month is September 2026, reflecting data available as of October 8, 2026. Its single-family block records 1,843 closed sales at a median of $432,360, against 1,866 sales at a median of $432,241 in September 2025: closed prices essentially flat year over year, sales down 1.23 percent. ORRA states its members are primarily, though not exclusively, located in Orange and Seminole counties, so this is a members’ backdrop rather than an Apopka or Orange County figure. Closed sales also report deals negotiated 30 to 60 days earlier, while the Altos figures above describe what is on the market today. Flat closings alongside a declining asking-price line is what you would expect while sellers are still adjusting.
What a seller should do with this
- Pull your ZIP’s numbers, not the city’s. The $70,050 median gap between 32712 and 32703 is real, and the price-per-square-foot gap runs the other way.
- Price against marked-down competition. With 51 percent of active listings already cut, the relevant comparison set is today’s asking prices, not the prices those sellers launched at.
- Decide your first reduction before you list. Median days on market is 63 citywide and 91 in 32712, so plan the review date rather than reacting to silence.
- Expect larger homes to take longer. The top quartile has been sitting 91 days against 52 for the bottom quartile.
- Work from a current valuation. The 90-day median has given back 6.06 percent since August 21, so an August comparable no longer sets the market.
If you are buying in Apopka instead, the same numbers describe your room. An index below the seller’s-market threshold, half the inventory already discounted and a top quartile sitting three months are the conditions where a well-supported offer gets a serious answer, particularly above $500,000.
Frequently asked questions
Is this report based on sold prices or asking prices?
Asking prices. Altos Research measures active listings, so every median, days-on-market figure and price-cut share above describes homes currently on the market in Apopka. The only closed-sale figures in this report are the ORRA September 2026 numbers, which are labeled as such and cover that association’s members rather than Apopka specifically.
Why does the citywide median fall more than either Apopka ZIP code?
Because the citywide median is calculated across the combined pool of 353 listings rather than averaged from the two ZIP results. When the share of listings shifts between a higher-priced area and a lower-priced one, the combined median moves on its own. Inventory currently splits 181 in 32703 against 172 in 32712, and 32712 is absorbing listings faster than it adds them. Use your ZIP’s figure for pricing decisions.
Does a Market Action Index of 34 mean Apopka is a seller’s market?
Altos applies the label “Slight Seller’s Advantage” at 34, and its published scale puts the seller’s-market threshold at 35 and a balanced market at around 30. Apopka is between the two. Practically, that means a correctly priced home still finds a buyer, and an aspirational price does not.
How often do these numbers change?
Altos refreshes weekly. These figures come from the Apopka reports dated Wednesday, November 11, 2026, with chart observations through the week ending Friday, November 6, 2026. See also our November reports for Winter Garden, Ocoee and Clermont.
