Southeast Florida 2023 Year-End Market Performance
The Southeast Florida Real Estate Market has continued in 2023 to appreciate in value over the previous year. Median Sales Prices in the Miami-Fort Lauderdale-West Palm Beach Metro Statistical Area (MSA) appreciated year-over-year across all asset types (single family homes, condos, townhomes, etc.) by +8.2% overall, however, quarter-over-quarter Median Sales Prices plateaued during Q2 and Q3 and declined slightly in Q4.
In terms of Closed Sales -a key indicator for market activity – the market experienced a more significant slow-down. The market came to seemingly halt when the number of Closed Sales hit a 10-year-low in Q4-2023 – with the exception of Q2-2020 when the Covid-Pandemic temporarily froze the market.
Bottom Line: Despite year-over-year price growth, we’re seeing early indicators of a market deceleration with Median Sales Prices stalling and the number of Closed Sales declining during 2023.
Southeast Florida 2024 Market Outlook
Buyers’ activity in Q1-2024 appears improved over Q4-2023, most likely fueled by lower interest rates and due to improved seasonal effects. We’re expecting market activity to increase throughout February and peaking in March for Q1-2024. Overall, it appears more buyers and in particular more investors are returning to the market in 2024.
