Real Estate Market Trends

If you're like a lot of other consumers, trite slogans and marketing come- ons aren't convincing. Especially when it comes to the most expensive investment you may ever make; numbers are far pithier.


Think about it -- which of these is of more value to you: “Now is the best time to buy or sell a house!” or “Real Estate Market Report for Yourtown, Yourstate?”

I guess it is nice to have options or do we really have any options except those dictated by the institution holding the mortgage. The sale of fire dwelling homeowners insurance is becoming more popular in Florida, despite higher risks of insurance not covering many losses, according to a South Florida Sun Sentinel analysis of quarterly insurance data. The risky homeowners insurance upswing is part of a growing trend. Pitfalls include homes not being covered for water damage and several other events known to cause catastrophic damage. Insurance agents are offering the coverage as a way to save customers money and in many cases making it possible for homeowners to keep their mortgage companies from foreclosing on their homes for not having insurance on the property. The increase is outpa...

April 2025 Ballantyne Housing Report:Prices, Sales, Inventory, Days on Market Trends Ballantyne real estate April 2025 experienced a mix of trends. The median sale price increased to $571,900, up 3.98% from the previous month and was 10.64% lower than a year ago. This decline reflects the price mix of homes sold rather than a decrease in home values. The average sale price declined 8.53% month-over-month to $637,835 and declined 12.46% from April one year ago. Again, this year-over-year decline reflects the price mix of homes sold rather than a decrease in Ballantyne home values. Homes sold for an average of $270 price per square foot, marking a 1.82% decline from March and a 1.89% gain year-over-year. Homes continued to sell close to their list prices, with a list-to-sale price ratio o...
