Florida Single Family Homes March 2020 Market Report

Florida Single Family Homes March 2020 Market Report

The Florida Single Family Home sales had stronger closed sales activity for March, but new pending sales are off considerably and I’m afraid this indicates some challenging months to come in this real estate sector. Closed sales were up by 6.4% (were up by 9.1% in February). New sales under contract (new pending sales) were down by 22.6% (were up by 12.5% in February).

Prices were up for March.  The median sales price rose by 7.4% (it was up by 8.0% in February). The average sales price was up by 8.9% (it was up by 7.9% last month).

The inventory of available homes for sale decreased by 14.0% from last year.  This represents a 3.4 months supply of inventory. Florida remains in a seller’s market with the advantage for sellers. (March 2019 had a 4.2 months supply)  A balanced market favoring neither buyers or sellers is considered to be one with a 6 to 7 month supply of inventory.
