The Market Seems to Have Stabilized
201 1 December’s activity in Weston’s Real Estate Market was very similar to 2010. The number of homes sold went down in only one unit and the percentage of distressed sales remained in the low %30’s, which even though is a very large number it’s still lower than in many other communities.

See below the list of properties sold during 2011 by Subdivision.

Weston Single Family Homes Sold on November 2011
December 8th, 2011 categories: Bonaventure, Emerald Estates, Emerald Isles, Isles at Weston, Savanna, Sunrise, Tequesta, The Islands, The Lakes, The Meadows, The Ridges, The Springs, Weston Hills Country Club, Windmill Reserve
We had a Very Active Month!!! even though we are starting Weston’s low season…
Single Family Homes sales were very active during the month of November 2011. The Inventories have been low specially during the last few months with less than 6 months of Inventory based on closed sales. Less than 6 months of Inventory based on closed sales is considered a Sellers Market. Our main challenge in how distressed sales still affect price on comparable sales making the recovery even though looking steady also slowly regarding price increases.

Weston Single Family Homes Sold on October 2011
November 16th, 2011 categories: Tips For Buyers


There were 286 homes available for sale at the end of October, which means 7.7 months of inventory based on closed sales which represents an increase from the trends observed most of the year where we stayed very close or under 6 months of inventory. A market between 6 and 9 months of inventory based on closed sales is considered a balanced market and under 6 months a sellers market which my lead to price increases.
It’s also interesting to note that during the month of October distressed sales represent less than 16% of total sales and the average for many months has been around 35%.
This is a detailed list of all Single Family Homes that closed in Weston during the month of October 2011

Weston Ranks No. 1 Performing Real Estate Market
October 25th, 2011 categories: Market Update
It’s all over the News Today!
And we were quoted in the BusinessWeek-Bloomberg article!!!
We have said all along that despite all we hear in the news the Weston Market has some hyper local trends that are different from most of the country. Even though Weston’s Real housing market has suffered as all the country, it has been slowly but surely recovering.
Weston’s as we have always referred to as Broward’s Cul-de-Sac was very well planned … all the services that are not local in nature are located surrounding the city along I-75 and the Residential areas are well separated from the Commercial Areas. Great Schools, Beautiful Landscape and a perfect city to live in have made of Weston the #1 housing market in the country.
One of the key factors that have contributed to Weston’s recovery is the fact that inventories have been absorbed and in the market under $800,000 we have had a seller’s market (less than 6 months of inventory based on closed sales) most of the time in the last year with multiple offers in most cases. If we go even further down in price range, properties listed under $400,000 remind us of the crazy real estate market times.
