Florida Townhouses and Condos February 2023 Market Report

Florida Townhouses and Condos market report continues to show weaker sales activity when compared to last year. The inventory numbers are growing, but we are facing headwinds with increasing mortgage rates and other economic uncertainties. Closed sales were down by 30.2% compared to last month’s decrease of 40.7%.  New sales under contract (new pending sales) decreased by 24.2% (In January, there was a 31.4% decrease).

Year-to-year prices were higher.  Though these price increases seem to have moderated a little, which may indicate future increased activity. The median sales price was up by 8.6% (was up by 8.8% in January). And the average sales price increased by 2.9% (was up 10.7% in January).

The inventory of active listings increased by 106% from February last year.  This results in 3.2 months supply of inventory as compared to 1.2 months for February 2021.  We remain in a sellers’ market for Florida townhouse and condo sales.  A balanced market favoring neither buyers nor sellers is considered to be one with a 6 to 7-month supply of inventory.

The Meadows is a guard-gated community with round-the-clock security.  Residents of the meadows enjoy a large heated swimming pool, a tot pool, children’s playground adjacent to the pool, basketball, 3 lighted tennis courts, a horseshoe pit and 2 bocce courts.  Near the entrance of the Meadows, between the gatehouse and the fountain, is a 2200 square foot recreation center, known as The Meadows House, which also houses the administrative offices of The Meadows Homeowners Association.

The Meadows came into existence through the efforts of local developer Peter Cumming who submitted the plans for the community around 1988.  Shortly thereafter, Burg and DiVosta (soon to be just DiVosta) began developing the land in the area called Martin Downs for the soon-to-be-constructed villages of The Meadows.

Recent sales in the Meadows:

Meadows History:

Divosta started construction on the site known as The Meadows in 1988 by building two structures from which to sell. One was a Single Family home (Hampton) in what is now known as Greenwich Village, and the other was a four-unit Town-Home building (Stamford) in what is now known as Lakemont Village. Both types of homes were started in The Meadows at about the same time in 1988.  DiVosta completed the Meadows in 1993 and turned the administration and running of the community to The Meadows Homeowners Association which runs the community through elected officers as well as full-time support staff.

HOA fees in the meadows vary by the type of home, so please look at the listing details view when checking available Meadows homes for sale.  The Meadows is not age-restricted and currently allows up to 2 large pets.  Rentals are also allowed with some restrictions.
