What These Numbers Mean for DeLand Buyers and Sellers
DeLand's housing market currently measures a median sale price of $349,825, with values moving -2.8% year over year, a shift worth reading alongside the Housing Market Trends module above. The competitive indicators point toward a market where negotiating leverage has moved toward buyers. With 3.9 months of supply and 294 active listings against 77 homes sold monthly, inventory is accumulating faster than it clears. The clearest signal is the 42.4% of listings that have taken a price reduction, meaning more than a third of sellers initially priced above what the market would bear.
Only 9.8% of homes sold above list, and just 21.0% left the market within two weeks, so bidding wars are the exception rather than the norm. The sale-to-list ratio of 98.05% confirms that most closings settle modestly below asking. For a buyer, this combination supports offering under list and requesting contributions toward closing costs or repairs, particularly on properties that have already logged more than 46 days of exposure. For a seller, the takeaway is disciplined pricing at the outset, since the -15 days change in market time shows that homes priced ambitiously are lingering and eventually cutting.
Positioning matters more in a market like this than in a fast-moving one, which is where representation earns its keep. DeLand has 715 licensed agents, a wide field in which pricing accuracy, staging, and negotiation discipline separate outcomes. Understanding how each metric applies to a specific home and zip code, from 32720 to 32724, is what turns raw data into a strategy.
What DeLand Home Prices Mean for You
Understanding the true cost of homeownership in DeLand goes beyond the listing price. These calculators break down what today's market conditions mean for your budget, your timeline, and your negotiating position.

What to Look for in a DeLand Realtor
Choosing an agent on name recognition alone overlooks the record that actually predicts results: verified transaction history, review depth, and negotiation outcomes measured against local data. In DeLand, EffectiveAgents has analyzed 836 annual transactions to rank 70 agents from a licensed pool of 715. The top-ranked agent, Kathy Aparo-Griffin at Aparo-Griffin Properties Inc, has closed 1,819 transactions and holds 75 reviews, backed by $337.6M in all-time sales volume. That track record matters most in a market where the average home sells at 98.05% of list and 42.4% of listings require a reduction; an agent who prices correctly and negotiates from data protects both time and net proceeds. Whether you are buying or selling near 32720, 32721, or 32724, the difference between an agent who reads the 3.9 months of supply correctly and one who does not can be measured in weeks on market and thousands at closing. When reviewing agents, look past a single glowing testimonial and study the pattern: consistent reviews across many transactions signal reliability that a handful of five-star notes cannot.
How We Rank DeLand Real Estate Agents
Our rankings are built from verified MLS transaction data, not advertising spend. For every agent we analyze more than fifteen performance signals, including sales volume in your city and zip code, recent and all-time transactions, days on market, negotiation results (how far above or below list price an agent's clients actually close), price-point fit, and verified reviews. The agents shown first are those whose verified results put them at the top of the DeLand market today.
Agents cannot pay for placement in these rankings. The underlying data refreshes as new closed transactions are reported, so rankings shift with real market performance. Learn how we rank agents.

DeLand Real Estate Agent FAQs
Who is the best real estate agent in DeLand, FL?
The top-ranked real estate agent in DeLand, FL is Kathy Aparo-Griffin at Aparo-Griffin Properties Inc, with 1,819 closed transactions, 75 client reviews, and $337.6M in all-time sales volume.

How were these DeLand real estate agents ranked?
Rankings are built from verified MLS transaction data. We analyze more than fifteen performance signals for every agent, including sales volume in your city and zip code, recent and all-time transactions, days on market, negotiation results, price-point fit, and verified reviews. Agents cannot pay for placement.
How many real estate agents are in DeLand?
Our data covers 715 real estate agents serving the DeLand area. The count represents agents with transaction activity recorded in our DeLand market data, not simply everyone holding a license.
What does the median sale price in DeLand mean for sellers?
DeLand's median sale price is $349,825 as of July 2026. Half of recent sales closed above that figure and half below. It is a useful baseline for understanding the market, but an experienced local agent will price your home against comparable recent sales in your neighborhood, not the citywide median.
How long does it take to sell a house in DeLand?
Homes in DeLand currently take a median of 46 days to sell, reflecting a -15 days change in market time from a year ago. Actual timelines depend on pricing accuracy, condition, and location within the city. With 42.4% of listings taking a reduction and 3.9 months of supply available, homes priced correctly from the start tend to sell faster, while those priced above market often sit and require cuts. Preparation, professional pricing, and strong initial exposure are the factors most within a seller's control.
Does it cost anything to use EffectiveAgents?
No. EffectiveAgents is free for home buyers and sellers, with no obligation to work with any agent we match you with.
Do agents pay to be ranked or featured?
No. Agents cannot pay for placement anywhere in these rankings. Positions are earned from verified transaction performance only.
What commission do DeLand realtors charge?
Commissions are negotiable and vary by agent, service level, and transaction. There is no set rate, and recent industry changes have made commission structures more flexible than ever. Discuss the structure directly with your agent before signing a listing or buyer agreement.
Should I use a local DeLand agent or a national brand?
The individual agent matters more than the brand on the sign. Offices within the same national franchise vary widely in performance, and the agent you hire, not the logo, prices your home, negotiates your contract, and manages your closing. A strong local agent brings firsthand knowledge of DeLand neighborhoods, pricing patterns, and buyer activity. Compare agents on verified local results such as recent sales, days on market, and negotiation outcomes rather than name recognition.
What questions should I ask a DeLand realtor before hiring them?
Ask how many homes they have closed in DeLand in the past year, what their average sale-to-list ratio is, and how much of their business is in your neighborhood and price range. Ask how they will market your home or find you listings, and how often they will communicate. Strong agents answer with specifics. Verified transaction data is the fastest way to confirm what you hear.
