Broward County Total Home Sales and prices Rise in August 2020

Rising home prices continue to rise in Broward, according to the MIAMI Association of Realtors.

Total home sales increased 6.7%, from 2,895 to 3,089. Single-family home sales in Broward increased 16.4%, from 1,436 to 1,672.
The strongest sales are in the single-family market, showing a sellers market with an inventory of 2.8 months.
Meanwhile, mortgage applications increased by 3% and increased in value, compared to 2019.
Both the pandemic and the high taxes in the northern states have made a very high migration to Florida.
Before the COVID-19 situation, the Broward market was exceptionally strong. Miami real estate had a historically low delinquency, no subprime mortgage crisis, strong demand / low supply, low interest rates, strong population growth, demand from foreign buyers and tax refugees from tax-burdened states, high consumer confidence and a strong job market.
Limited supply is another price driver in this County.
Prices for single-family homes in Broward County increased 12.5% ​​year-over-year in August 2020, increasing from $ 369,750 to $ 416,000. Existing condo prices increased 13.2% year-over-year, from $ 176,540 to $ 199,900.
Luxury and Middle Market Home Sales Increase in August 2020
Broward single-family homes priced between $ 400,000 and $ 600,000 increased 34.4% year-over-year to 527 transactions in August 2020. Sales of existing Broward condos priced between $ 400,000 and $ 600,000 increased 32.4% to 94 transactions.
Broward single-family luxury transactions ($ 1 million and above) increased 103.5% year-over-year to 116 sales in August 2020. Sales of existing luxury Broward condos ($ 1 million and above) increased 30.8% year-over-year -year to 17 transactions.
Historically low interest rates; a record S&P 500; the appeal of stable assets in a volatile economy; Homebuyers Leaving Tax-Laden Northeast States to Buy in Florida (No State Income Tax); and remote learning and work-from-home policies have combined to create a strong market for luxury single-family properties.
Dollar volume increases for single-family homes.
Single-family dollar volume increased 35.9% year-over-year, from $ 650.2 million to $ 883.9 million. Condo dollar volume increased 9.6% year-over-year, from $ 314.3 million to $ 344.4 million.
According to Freddie Mac, a conventional 30-year fixed-rate mortgage fell to 2.94% in August, up from 3.02% in July.
