Market Values Hold Steady as Broward County Reopens
Just in! Newly released market reports from Florida Realtors® detailing recent real estate activity in Broward County. The reports compare year-over-year data for May. Here are statistics on single family homes.
“Promising news for Broward County! Despite the pandemic, real estate market values are holding steady at $372,500. Most would assume that the market would be derailed after the past few months, but this just goes to show how resilient our county is. If you’re looking to sell, there are also fewer competing properties right now and fewer days on market,” said Jarrod Lowe, President of Broward, Palm Beaches & St. Lucie Realtors®.
Days on market is the median number of days between the list date and contract date for all closed sales during the month. It measures the number of days between the initial listing of a property and the signing of the contract, which will eventually lead to the closing of the sale. In Broward County, the median time to contract is only 33 days.
“Meanwhile, we did see a decrease in closed sales by 51 percent, which is understandable as many closings were postponed due to COVID-19. However, with the reopening of Broward County, I expect to see the market begin to normalize as summer progresses. I encourage all residents to contact a local Realtor® if they are interested in buying or selling. Realtors® are going above and beyond to follow CDC Guidelines and are equipped to help you buy or sell in all market conditions,” continues Lowe.
