South Florida is a Great Place to Live Right Now!

access_timeSeptember 6, 2013personScott Patterson

The news from the South Florida real estate market has been exceptionally positive lately.

One recent article noted that the area’s economy has been improving quite noticeably lately, emerging from the global recession stronger than before.

Today, I’m going to tell you about how our local economy is showing gains lately.

The Economy is Rebounding in South Florida

First, let’s start with the real estate market. According to the recent article I was reading, the housing market is hot once more, with home demand and home prices on the rise.

Meanwhile, condo developers are revving up activity once more.

The Miami Herald article also noted that the hospitality and tourism business is improving, with activity steadily increasing since 2010.

As of 2012, record numbers of visitors had stayed in area hotels. And experts believe that this year’s numbers are going to surpass even that!

The local economy is also seeing diversification, with Miami increasingly becoming a technology and healthcare hub.

Meanwhile, the area is also seeing a lot of key development, such as the recent Miami International Airport expansion and the Port of Miami tunnel development.

Other key developments that have been in the news recently include the Verizon NAP of the Americas in downtown Miami, the proposed new Miami Beach Convention Center and more!

Miami is also becoming well known for being a place to come as an entrepreneur.

For instance, the Global Entrepreneurship Monitor U.S. Report showed that Miami is 30 percent more entrepreneurial than the rest of the country.

Relocating to South Florida

As you can see, there are many different reasons to want to live in South Florida, from its diversified local jobs market to its thriving real estate market.

Real Estate Market Report for Hollywood Lakes Subdivision in South Florida

access_timeMay 12, 2011personScott Patterson

A lot can change over the course of a year in the South Florida real estate market.

The home sales data for this historic neighborhood (located off the Intracoastal Waterway and Atlantic Ocean) is compared below during the first part of the year for 2010 and 2011.

Hollywood, Florida Real Estate

Here’s a look at closed sales data in Hollywood Lakes from Jan 1, 2010 to May 16, 2010. Please keep in mind this is only for closed sales not active listings.

Total homes sold: 22
Minimum list price: $160,000
Maximum list price: $1,300,000
Minimum sales price: $99,000
Maximum sale price: $1,275,000
Minimum Days on the Market: 1
Maximum Days on the Market: 478

Now compare that with sales date for Hollywood Lakes between Jan. 1, 2011 and May 6, 2011:

Total homes sold: 17
Minimum list price: $235,000
Maximum list price: $619,000
Minimum sales price: $234,000
Maximum sale price: $580,000
Minimum Days on the Market: 6
Maximum Days on the Market: 401

One of the biggest conclusions I’ve drawn from this data is that the South Florida real estate market is beginning to stabilize and grow.

Consider This: 45 percent of homes that sold in that time period in 2010 were on the market for more than 100 days, compared with 41 percent in 2011.

And while sales prices are lower in 2011, they’re closer to the list price than in 2010, where the difference varied widely in some cases.
