We know the old adage, location, location, location, but when it comes to Florida purchasing, time is also one of the best factors in buying and selling Florida real estate. If you've been holding off purchasing a home, I certainly wouldn't wait any longer. Interest rates are slowly creeping up and so are home prices so now will be about the best time this year to find the right home and have the best selection. Many sellers wait until the winter and spring but their homes on the market in January and February through April 10 to be our busiest month. Right after Christmas, sellers list their home because they know that the weather is perfect for bringing in buyers. Many buyers are also visiting during the holiday season so looking at properties around the holidays is a great time to consider buying or selling.

Because this is our busy season, you will find the most properties for sale during this time; that includes condominiums, lots, land and single-family houses. Sellers have waited until this time in order to get their homes quickly and for as much profit as possible.
