    Market Update: February 2018

    Greetings, Neighbors!


    We’re off to great start for the winter selling season in Southwest Florida. In the market, January 2018 saw lots of open house and pending activity – more than we’ve seen in past months.  Now that storm repairs and the holidays are behind us, buyers are here and ready to see properties, and they no longer want to wait! While there are still some overpriced properties on the market, overall inventory has remained stable despite potential challenges of 2016’s election and 2017’s storm.  We’re currently in a stable market where price still sells. Properties priced at fair market value will continue to sell, as those are the properties receiving multiple offers.

     

    New construction homes continue to be a viable choice for buyers, but we are still urging buyers not to go it alone without their own REALTOR®, as new construction community on-site agents work for the builder/developer.  In a new construction transaction, your agent is instrumental is the negotiation process. Not having your own agent essentially leaves money on the table and no one looking out for your interests.  Additionally, the builder/developer pays the buyer agent’s commission, making it a win-win situation for you to have their own agent in the transaction.

    No matter what your 2018 real estate goals are, our team can help you make it happen with the best possible outcome!  Here is a handy list of unique sales tools we provide our buying and selling clients.
