Homes Sell Fastest in These Florida Counties
Typical homes in Florida are on the market 62 days. When homes sell faster, it can be a sign the market is less buyer friendly.
MIAMI – The pace at which homes sell in the U.S. tends to ebb and flow over the calendar year, with homes selling fastest in the summer and slowest in the winter. But high home prices and mortgage interest rates are keeping many potential buyers on the sidelines.
The median number of days a home spent on the market in February was 48, five days less than the year before. In Florida, the typical home was on the market 62 days.
When homes sell faster, it can be a sign that any given market is less buyer-friendly, and decisions must be made quickly.
