Redfin, through May 2026
Zillow figures are as of July 2026 and refresh monthly. Redfin figures are through May 2026 — Redfin stopped publishing its public market trackers in June 2026, so those numbers are final, not current. Mortgage rates come from Freddie Mac via FRED and update weekly.
Winter Haven, FL is a balanced market, based on 3.4 months of supply and homes selling in about 81 days. Under 4 months of supply tilts the market toward sellers: homes clear faster than they are replaced, so concessions are scarce.

Over the last three years the median sale price in Winter Haven, FL fell 7.5%, from $319,000 to $294,990. The live Zillow value series has fell 2.5% in the last 12 months, which is the more current read now that Redfin's series has stopped. 34.1% of Winter Haven listings cut their asking price in the final Redfin month — a high share, and the clearest sign that list prices were running ahead of what buyers would pay. For prices to fall meaningfully from here, supply would have to keep building past 3.4 months while the sale-to-list ratio slips below its current 98.3%. Watch those two together — they move before the median does.

Priced off the typical home value of $274,480 at the current 6.66% 30-year fixed rate. These are principal and interest only — property taxes, homeowner's insurance, HOA dues and mortgage insurance are on top, and they vary enough by property that we will not guess them for you.

Zillow, July 2026 for the price · Freddie Mac via FRED, August 2026 for the rate
Lenders generally want housing costs under 28% of gross income. On the 20%-down payment of $1,411, that implies roughly $60,476 a year before you add taxes and insurance. The median household in Winter Haven earns $59,604, about $872 short of that threshold — the typical local household needs a larger down payment, a co-borrower, or a home below the typical home value to fit the 28% rule. That puts the price-to-income ratio at 4.6x — above the historical 3x norm but in line with much of the country in 2026.

Typical asking rent in Winter Haven, FL is $1,728/mo, against a typical home value of $274,480. That is a price-to-rent ratio of 13.2x, which means buying tends to beat renting on monthly cost over a typical hold. Compared head to head, 20% down puts principal and interest at $1,411 a month — $317 less than renting before taxes and insurance, so ownership can win on monthly cost alone once you have the down payment.

62.3% of occupied homes in Winter Haven are owner-occupied, and the rest are rented — which is the share that decides how much of the local housing stock ever reaches the for-sale market. The Census self-reported median home value is $248,200 against Zillow's $274,480 typical value; the gap is normal — ACS asks owners what they think their home is worth, Zillow models transactions. Census median gross rent (all leases, including long-held ones) is $1,200/mo, below Zillow's $1,728/mo asking rent on new leases — the difference is roughly what a mover pays over a stayer.
