A Fort Myers NewsPress article on Pending Home Sales being up 6.7 percent nationwide grabbed my attention today! The National Association of Realtors said that it was the highest surge in pending home sales since October 2001 when pending salesrose 9.2 percent. Lawerence Yun, the Realtor's chief adviser attributes the surge to the $8,000 tax rebate that first time home buyers can anticipate receiving if they purchase their new home by the end of the year. Specifically, first time home buyers have until November 30th to close in order to receive the tax credit. As interest rates rise and the deadline looms ahead for the $8,000 First Time Home Buyers tax credit we can expect to see more pending sales in Fort Myers as First Time Home Buyers in the Lee County Real Estate Market rush to buy a home.
The article I read today in the Fort Myers NewsPress so interested me that I spent time this evening researching pending home sales in Fort Myers. There are currently 995 Pending Sales in the Lee County Real Estate Market, well as of 8:05 pm this evening. The Lee County areas I have included in the search are: Fort Myers, Fort Myers Beach, Cape Coral, North Fort Myers, Lehigh Acres, Estero, parts of Bonita, Matlacha, St. James City, Pine Island, Sanibel Island and Captiva Island.
