June is National Homeownership Month
Hey Vero Beach! Did you know June is National Homeownership Month!
Welcome to the June edition of “Houses and Happenings”! As the days grow longer and the summer sun shines brighter, our local real estate market continues to buzz with activity. Let’s dive into what’s been happening and what you can expect this month.
While national trends indicate a slight increase in inventory, the Indian River County, including Vero, is experiencing an substantial increase in inventory, which means lower prices.
For buyers now is an excellent time to buy, especially if you are looking for a home that is well-priced.
Sellers, be prepared for a competitive market and make sure your home has good curb appeal, mechanicals are up to date and any issues are taken care of.
June Real Estate Trends
The Vero Beach housing market, like much of Indian River County, has become a buyer’s market as of April 2025. This means there are more homes than eager buyers which on average, homes are selling for approximately 5% of their asking price, indicating a change in buyer interest.
Here’s a quick look at some key figures for Indian River County (as of April 2025 data):
- Months Supply of Inventory – 5.9
- Median Percent of Original List Price – 95%
The market is moving – are you ready to make your move?

Summer Ready: Home Maintenance Tips for June
- With summer officially here, it’s the perfect time to tackle those outdoor maintenance tasks and ensure your home is ready for the hotter months.
- AC Check-Up: Give your air conditioner a test run to make sure it’s cooling properly. Clean condenser coils to ensure efficiency.
- Pest Patrol: Trim shrubs and bushes away from your home’s exterior to deter insects. Eliminate any standing water to prevent mosquito breeding. Check for Wasp Nests.
- Outdoor Living: Inspect and repair any outdoor play equipment. Check your irrigation system weekly for proper function and leaks.
- Screen Doors & Windows: Install your screen doors and check existing screens for any tears to keep those summer breezes (and bugs!) out.
- Clean Gutters: Clear out any debris to ensure proper drainage as summer storms arrive.
- Pressure Wash: Spruce up your sidewalks, driveways, and porches with a good pressure wash (or a gentler hose wash for siding).
