With the barrage of information and news headlines on the Real Estate Market and where we’re headed, we thought we’d share a few relevant insights with you, specific to the Miami Real Estate Market, and to luxury property:
RESTIVO’S REVIEW: REAL ESTATE REPORT for CORAL GABLES AND PINECREST:
CORAL GABLES LUXURY HOME SALES:
Average SOLD price in 2008: $1,677,000 – $342 square foot
Average SOLD price in 2010: $1,720,000 – $375 square foot (Summer of 2010)
PINECREST LUXURY HOME SALES:
Average SOLD price in 2008: $1,502,000 – $290 square foot
Average SOLD price in 2010: $1,749,000 – $286 square foot. (Summer of 2010)
These figures show that actual AVERAGE SALES PRICE in parts of South Florida is up … in contrast with the real estate market news plastered across the media.
The AVERAGE PRICE PER SQUARE FOOT increased somewhat in Coral Gables from 2008 until now. In Pinecrest it remained virtually flat (ie. identical).
These figures, interestingly enough, take into consideration short sales and foreclosures, both of which have risen over the past three years. Experts are forecasting a continued increase in SHORT SALES AND FORECLOSURES as shadow inventory creeps onto the market.
