March Brings Strong Recovery In Median Condo Prices

Posted

Daytona Beach, FL - Median sales prices in the Daytona area condo market recovered from February's temporary pricing dip and returned to the strong range the area saw as 2017 began.

An analysis of Daytona Beach Multiple Listing Service (MLS) data by The Wyse Home Team at Keller-Williams Realty showed there were 130 condo sales in January with a median sales price of $184,000. It’s a 6.5% increase from the sales totals seen the same month a year ago, and a 14% increase from February’s sales.

Median sales prices fully recovered from February’s price dip and the month ended with prices up 21%, year over year.

Inventory levels worsened in March as demand for area condos increased. Condo buyers in March were forced to search for properties in a market with 9% fewer condo listings than were available during the same month of 2016.

“Consumer confidence continues to soar,” said Ron Wysocarski, CEO of The Wyse Home Team at Keller Williams Realty. “It’s fueling our local real estate market as residents feel more secure investing in bigger, better homes and an increasing number of visitors investing in some of our area’s great vacation properties.”
