The US real estate
market runs in cycles. At a given moment it is the “Buyer’s
cycle”, and at another it is the “Seller’s”.
Each cycle spans an average of 2 and a half years, sometimes
a little longer. According to statistics data from the National
Association of Realtors – NAR, the average length
of time a residential property stays in the market for sale
is six months. When sales occur in a shorter period of time,
there is indication that the market is on the rise and is
favorable to the seller (Seller’s Market).
However, when properties start taking longer to sell, it
becomes favorable to buyers (Buyer’s Market).
The “Buyer’s Market” favors the buyer
due to a large number of available options. That is when
competition arises among sellers and everything becomes
more flexible, including the prices. Today, Florida enjoys
a strong “Buyer’s Market” and great opportunities
await buyers. But expectations for changes in this cycle
are already in the forecast because, as soon as measures
to reduce such things as property taxes are approved by
the Florida Legislative Congress, the prices will go up
again and it will no longer be possible to find the kinds
of opportunities we can find today. So don’t wait
any further, take advantage of today’s opportunities,
invest in a real estate property in Florida.
