How Santa Markella is trading
7 homes closed in Santa Markella in the trailing 12 months at a median of $273,000, with a 98.0% median list-to-sale ratio. On the active side, 2 of 2 listings sit below original list price, and standing inventory works out to 3.4 months of supply at the current sales pace.
Santa Markella rewards comparison, and the proof is in the roll: one subdivision number, one use label on all 259 parcels, and eleven named streets with exactly one address point per parcel. A sale on Silva Drive and a sale on Willard Circle therefore come from the same pool. The catch is age. The roll dates 253 of the 259 to the 1950s and 1960s, so a typical figure here describes mid-century houses in whatever condition and updating the roll cannot see, and the six dated 2000 or later belong in a separate comparison. Parcel outlines from 0.15 to 0.54 acre are the other thing to match before trusting any comparison.
Year-over-year figures compare the 12 complete calendar months from November 2025 through October 2026 with the 12 before them. That window can differ from the trailing totals above, which run day-precise through November 5, 2026 rather than by whole calendar months.

The monthly charts cover the 24 complete calendar months from November 2024 through October 2026, and a month with no closings is a zero bar rather than a gap. Their last 12 months are the window the year-over-year figures compare.
Based on information from ECAR for the period November 6, 2021 through November 5, 2026.

Where do these numbers come from?
Sale and inventory statistics are computed from ECAR MLS data by Dream Destin Realty and were last refreshed on November 5, 2026. Based on information from ECAR for the period November 6, 2021 through November 5, 2026.
Why is there no list of individual sold homes?
7 homes closed in Santa Markella in the trailing 12 months, from $150,000 to $362,000. MLS rules do not allow individual sold listings to be displayed publicly, so this page shows area-level statistics only - ask us for the street-by-street sold review and we'll walk you through it.
How are thin samples handled?
Any figure computed from fewer than three sales is withheld rather than published - a one-sale "median" is just that sale's price. Counts always show; prices earn their way onto the page.
