real estate recovery report: Housing Inventory in Broward and Palm Beach Steadily Decline - 06/28/11 02:03 PM
Here is an interesting graph that I found on SunSentinel.com showing the decline of the housing inventory in Broward and Palm Beach Counties over the last 3 years.
The trend shows a steady drop in the number of homes for sale and it is a good indication that the real estate market will return to a more natural balance eventually.
If this trend continues I think it will only be a matter of time before prices being to react towards the dropping supply of available property.

In further news CoreLogic reported this week that the shadow inventory of homes dropped by 18 percent from its peak as of April. The shadow inventory are the homes that banks and other entities have foreclosed on but have yet to list on the market. This is an indication that foreclosures have peaked and are starting to slow down.

real estate recovery report: More Buyers Expected as Rents Rise - 04/23/11 01:39 AM

Real Estate analysts are starting to see rental rates in desirable areas starting to rise as 2011 has had a strong start. It is predicted that rental rates will continue to go up through 2013 and as they do tenants will become more motivated to purchase property in greater numbers. However, in cities where foreclosures and unemployment is high, rentals rates will remain stagnant. Obviously this isn't going to happen over night and I think it is safe to say that real estate will be undergoing "gradual" change, as opposed to "swings" for quite some time given our recent history.

I am glad to say that real estate in Palm Aire is looking great this week. So far this week, we have sold four properties, three of which were in Palm Aire. The other was a house in Oakland Park.
