Robertsdale, Ala. — (OBA) — Baldwin County’s housing market posted mixed results in July 2025, with Resort-area sales and prices climbing, while Traditional Residential sales slowed despite moderate price gains. Data from Baldwin REALTORS® Multiple Listing Service (MLS) shows average sales prices rose in both segments compared to July 2024. However, sales volume trends took different paths, with beach-area properties fueling the strongest growth.

The Resort market — covering Orange Beach, Fort Morgan, and Gulf Shores south of Canal Road/180 — saw more properties sold, higher prices, and a boost in total sales volume. The Traditional Residential market recorded a year-over-year dip in the number of homes sold and saw listings stay on the market longer.

Market watchers say Baldwin County’s beach and resort properties continue to command strong demand, pushing both prices and sales volume higher. The inland housing market remains steady in pricing but has seen a slowdown in closed sales and faster-growing inventory. Whether this trend will hold through the remainder of 2025 remains to be seen.
