Comparing residential sales in Palm Harbor during 2011 to the sales that took place in 2010 we find:

Looking at the above information we see increased sales during 2011 along with higher sold prices. That is great news for the economy in general and verifies the information that the Florida Association of Realtors has been reporting. According to FAR, the Florida residential market is showing a slow but steady recovery.

What does this mean for the residential buyer? NOW is the time to take advantage of some fantastic prices as the market here in our state is starting a slow but steady recovery. Prices will certainly not shoot up as they did years ago but they are indeed increasing. And with mortgage rates at the lowest they have been in over 50 years, it is indeed the time to purchase!

It is a time of great opportunity for home buyers to take advantage of the large selection, very attractive prices and record low mortgage interest rates.

Happy New Year!
