The story for media: "40.2% of single-family homes for sale in Delray Beach have reduced their asking price at least once, against 43.5% across Palm Beach County, according to PBP Real Estate's daily analysis of BeachesMLS listing data as of September 5, 2026."
Daily tracking of Delray Beach began September 5, 2026; the sparklines in these tiles fill in from the second day and show the trailing 90 days. Buyer Hesitation Time is the median cumulative days on market; Seller Blink Rate is the share of active listings with at least one price reduction.
A home that is priced properly on day one sells in the first few weeks. One that is not gets cut, sits, or comes back on the market as a fresh listing. This page counts all three every morning for Delray Beach, houses and condominiums separately, from our own MLS feed. It is the number a seller should know before choosing an asking price, and the number a buyer should know before making an offer.
37.6% of Delray Beach houses are fresh and holding their price; 17.6% are past 90 days and have never cut
- Fresh, no cut (60 days or less)

Every active listing falls into one of three states: fresh with no cut (on the market 60 days or less at its original price), cut at least once, or past 90 days and never cut. The first group is the market working; the second is the market correcting; the third is waiting for a buyer who has not come.

Trend since tracking began
Daily tracking of Delray Beach began on September 5, 2026. The trend chart appears here once a second day of data exists and grows every morning after that; daily moves are read against the trailing 30 and 90 days, not on their own.
What to do with this
Sellers
- Set the asking price against the 37.6% of Delray Beach houses that are fresh and holding, not the 40.2% that have already come down.
- If a listing has passed 60 days without an offer, the data says the next move is a price decision, not another photo shoot.
- A withdrawn-and-relisted home still carries its full history in the MLS; buyers' agents see it.
Buyers
- Ask for the cumulative days on market, not the portal figure; in Delray Beach they differ for 8.5% of houses.
- A listing past 90 days that has never cut (17.6% of houses) is where offers below asking are most often entertained.
- Homes in the Under $500K band have cut most often; expect competition to be thinner there.
Media writers
