New Condo Construction Projects in the Broward County Area

The real estate market in south Florida has been topsy-turvy since 2008 to say the very least. The latest real estate market change in south Florida, specifically in Broward County is a profound shortage of inventory. Private investors and investment property companies have been buying up thousands of properties in cash over the past couple of years. While this trend is a positive one, as the Florida real estate market is turning back into a seller's market, it is still problematic for those looking to purchase a home of their own. This new need for inventory is fueling a condominium construction boom in Broward, Miami-Dade, and Palm Beach counties. There are currently 170 new condominium buildings proposed for construction in south Florida, 3 of which have already reached completion with 3 more proposed to be completed by the end of 2013. The most recent of the Broward County condos to be completed was the Apogee Beach condo in Hollywood Florida. Apogee Beach consists of 49 Hollywood Florida condos on 24 floors, and is located right on the Atlantic Ocean. So far a total of 44 units have been purchased from the developer of Apogee Beach Hollywood Florida for an estimated $50.6 million as of mid-October of this year. Bellini Williams Island in Aventura Florida, the Regalia in Sunny Isles Beach, and MyBrickell in downtown Miami are the three south Florida condos that are proposed to be completed by the end of this year. The construction of these Broward County condos and Miami-Dade condos will help boost the south Florida real estate inventory, further improving the market. Numerous other projects are scheduled to commence in Broward, Miami-Dade and Palm Beach counties within the next few years.

Broward County Home Sales

Broward County is one of the most desirable places to live in the country, home to some of the most popular cities such as Fort Lauderdale, with some of the most stunning south Florida homes. Since the housing market in south Florida spiraled out of control, the only way to go has been up. Broward County home sales are finally starting to return to normalcy, and Broward County home sellers are taking less of a loss on their home sales. This new pattern of Broward County home sales indicates that the market is taking a turn for the better, according to Broward County real estate experts. This new pattern of Broward County homes being sold for a profit can be attributed to the investors that have been purchasing investment property in south Florida to renovate and re-sell to traditional home-buyers. Prices for Broward County homes have been steadily increasing throughout the past year approximately 26% to the current median price of $270,500, and are theorized to be comparable median prices on homes for sale in 2008. While there are still homes for sale in Broward County that are worth less than the current mortgages, this rise in home sale prices has provided restoration to lost equity, and allowed some apprehensive current owners the confidence to finally sell their homes. Individual investors receive some of the credit for this revitalization of the Broward County real estate market, but large investment firms deserve a significant amount of credit as well. These large investors have been purchasing Broward County properties in bulk to utilize as rental property, and due to this trend competition has been at an all-time high since these companies are overpaying for Broward County homes. According to certain housing analysts, this competitive trend is projected to continue to pump up the Broward County real estate market, which can only mean good things for realtors and sellers.
