How long does it take to sell a home in Miami in 2026?
As of January 2026, homes in Miami are taking an average of about 48 to 55 days to go under contract — and roughly 80 to 90 days to close. Condos continue to take a bit longer, averaging around 70 to 85 days to contract and approximately 100 to 110 days to close. These numbers reflect the last 30 days of MLS data and demonstrate a steady, balanced market heading into the new year.
For sellers, that means it’s more important than ever to price strategically and present your home perfectly from day one. With expert guidance from Kim Kaplan Marchena, listings often sell faster than the county average — especially in prime neighborhoods like Aventura, North Miami Beach, and Keystone Point.
