Condo sale prices are outpacing Single Family homes in price points. Southwest Florida attracts a lot of people who love Condo living and many of these Condos are on the water, thus providing easy access to water and wonderful views.

When you look at the $1,000,000 or more price point you see that the median days on market was 68 compared to 71 for Single Family homes. This is a pretty quick sale for the price point.

Many people buy a Condo as a Vacation home or Second home. 

Now is a good time to take advantage of the Snowbirds have gone back North. You could find a great Condo that would give you a great place to relax, enjoy the Sun, Water and the Beach.

I will be glad to arrange to show you your Dream Condo.
