We are in the throes of the busiest months selling real estate in Palm Beach County.

​The winter holidays bring joy in so many ways. But this particular season is seeing a measurable return to a "normal" market, which is bringing us all a little extra joy right now.

We've been talking about the importance of restoring a balanced market for several years now. With triple the number of homes sold during the Covid "lockdown," we are slowly but steadily continuing along the path toward equilibrium in the number of listings and sales.

Spring has sprung here in Palm Beach County with dry and delightfully warm weather. What has also arrived is a great influx of new listings -- including an 18% increase in available single homes for sale in Palm Beach Gardens over this same time last year.

Florida saw the largest influx of people moving here from northern states during the Pandemic with recent reports from the DMV showing folks are moving from every state, with many from western states like California and Nevada, exchanging their driver's licenses and to call South Florida home. Which leads to me to the most requested question I've received lately, from both residents and out of state clients thinking about their next purchase -- "Isn't the cost of housing going down?"
