Just in! Newly released market reports from Florida Realtors® detailing recent real estate activity in the Palm Beaches. The reports compare year-over-year data for December. Here are statistics on single family homes.

“Great news for Palm Beach County Residents! The market continues to thrive as we enter 2020. Closed sales increased 15.5 percent to 1,420 as well as median sale price which rose 5.6 percent to $364,000. However, there were decreases in active inventory (-16.1%) and months’ supply of inventory (-17.6%),” said Jarrod Lowe, President of Broward, Palm Beaches & St. Lucie Realtors®.

Closed sales are typically one of the simplest – yet most important – indicators for the residential real estate market.

“With the rise in median sale price but also declines in active listings and months’ supply of inventory, I’d suggest listing your home with a local Realtor®. If you’ve been on the fence about selling, they can help you take advantage of the current market conditions,” continues Lowe. 

It’s important to remember that median sale price is our preferred summary statistic for price activity because, unlike average sale price, median sale price is not sensitive to high sales prices for small numbers of homes that may not be characteristic of the market area.

Coming soon! 2019 year end market reports for Palm Beach County will release on February 12th.
