Hi, Kwee. I can't believe how much your average sold price is up from that year for a single family residence. 

This is a great market report and I know both buyers and sellers in Osprey, FL will find this information very informative.

Hi Debbie, some homes in Osprey are on the beach, luxury golf and country club, gated communities while some other smaller houses are along US 41. The average sold price depends on the properties sold therefore the percentage of sold price increase was great.
