Brookhaven condos also took longer to sell, and the September ratio of 95.9% was the lowest in either segment this month.

Is Brookhaven a buyer's market or a seller's market right now?
The answer depends on the segment. Single family months supply was about 3.0 in September 2026, a level generally read as leaning toward sellers (FMLS, September 2026). Condo months supply was about 9.7, which leans toward buyers, even after easing from about 11 in August. Both segments closed below their year-to-date list to sold price ratios in September, so buyers in each found some room to negotiate.
Why are Brookhaven condo figures less reliable this month?
Brookhaven recorded only 7 condo sales in September 2026, compared with 20 in September 2025 (FMLS, September 2026). With a sample that small, one or two closings at higher or lower price points can move the median, the average and the list to sold price ratio noticeably. The year-to-date condo figures, based on 80 sales, give a broader view, with a median sold price of $655,000 and a median of 39 days on market.
What Is the Bottom Line for Brookhaven in September 2026?
The Brookhaven real estate market in September 2026 shows two distinct segments. Single family homes posted a lower monthly median but steady year-to-date pricing, quick sales and supply near 3 months. Condos showed higher prices on a small 7-sale sample, with longer marketing times and supply near 9.7 months (FMLS, September 2026).
Single family sellers can still expect solid demand when pricing aligns with recent sales, and condo buyers have more choice than for most of 2024 and 2025.
