Prices were also up for December.  The median sales price rose by 5.9% (it was up by 3.9 % in November). The average sales price was up by 6.9% (it was up by 13.1 % last month).

The inventory of available homes for sale decreased by 11.4% from last year.  This represents a 3.4 months supply of inventory as Florida remains in a seller’s market with the advantage for sellers. (December 2018 had a 4.0 months supply)  A balanced market favoring neither buyers or sellers is considered to be one with a 6 to 7 month supply of inventory.  Inventory continues to decrease which is putting pressure on rising prices and lower sales volume.

Currently, Florida has a shortage of inventory of homes for sale. Affordable homes are the most scarce in the state at this time and builders are not in a position to alleviate this shortage. At least, any time soon.
