How Ventana Dunes is trading
5 homes closed in Ventana Dunes in the trailing 12 months at a median of $750,000, with a 99.2% median list-to-sale ratio. On the active side, 0 of 2 listings sit below original list price, and standing inventory works out to 4.8 months of supply at the current sales pace.
Almost every lot on the Ventana Dunes parcel roll measures close to a tenth of an acre, so compare a sale here on its house more than its land. The roll dates no house to 2006 through 2009, which leaves two build periods, and the later one runs larger: a house dated 2010 or after most often holds 2,000 square feet of living area or more, one dated before 2006 most often less. Match a sale to houses of the same build period and similar living area. Four lots carry more ground than the rest, Lots 1, 13 and 14 of Block B and Lot 36 of Block A, and a sale on one of them belongs in a comparison of its own. Keep sales of the three vacant lots apart from house sales, and leave out Lot 23 of Block B, which county records class as common area with the association as owner of record.
Year-over-year figures compare the 12 complete calendar months from September 2025 through August 2026 with the 12 before them. That window can differ from the trailing totals above, which run day-precise through September 27, 2026 rather than by whole calendar months.

The monthly charts cover the 24 complete calendar months from September 2024 through August 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 September 28, 2021 through September 27, 2026.

Where do these numbers come from?
Sale and inventory statistics are computed from ECAR MLS data by Dream Destin Realty and refreshed on a 30-day cycle. Based on information from ECAR for the period September 28, 2021 through September 27, 2026.
Why is there no list of individual sold homes?
5 homes closed in Ventana Dunes in the trailing 12 months, from $685,000 to $790,000. 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.
