Looking at the numbers below, we have roughly 30% more sales the first half of this year as compared to last year. I believe that three contributing factors to the increase in sales are that prices have continued to fall, sellers have finally become more realistic, and interest rates remain low.
If last year's trend continues, the summer should be a busy one for Coconut Grove real estate. Keep in mind that any first time home buyer looking to get their $8,000 tax refund has to close by the end of this year which should help the lower end townhouse and condo market significantly.
