People love real estate! Who doesn’t enjoy binge watching HGTV on a rainy day or spending time online searching and dreaming about beautiful beach homes? Right! All you real estate fanatics out there ---- you know who you are! Over and over again, the question du jour comes up in conversation; “So, How’s the 30A Real Estate Market these days?” Real Estate markets are LOCAL not national and for our current LOCAL 30A market, we would say without hesitation, the answer for how the market is doing all depends on whether you’re selling or you’re buying!
If you’re thinking about selling – or ready to sell – then it’s probably one of the best times ever to be in the market! And here’s why:
- Properties along 30A and South Walton have appreciated on average by 37.25%* since 2019.
- With fewer properties currently on the market, you won’t have as much competition. (Read on for # of properties available right now ----you might just be surprised!)
- As a seller, you’re in the “driver’s seat” for negotiating the terms & price.
- Depending on your circumstances and how long you’ve owned your property, there’s potential for a great return on your original financial outlay.
Are you curious about how much your property has appreciated or is potentially worth in the current 30A market?
Is it important to you to work with local, experienced professionals who keep your goals and needs their first priority while giving the best guidance for your situation?
If so, then, please reach out we’re here to guide you every step of the way. So, let’s start talking!
The current 30A Real Estate Market for buyers looks quite different compared to sellers.
As of today, there are only 155 homes and 36 condos for sale between Watercolor and Inlet Beach. The number of properties on the market on the west side of 30A (Grayton Beach to Dune Allen) is even less with only 68 homes and 7 condos currently available!
So, the current market for buyers can be a bit of a challenge. But with patience, preparation, and perseverance there are still wonderful properties to be purchased here at the beach. Properties on the market go under contract very quickly these days. So, buyers must be well prepared when the time begins to make offers. There’s never been a more important time to have clearly defined goals and have all of your financial “ducks in a row” well in advance of serious searches.
The next best thing you can do to ensure your success in finding a property is to work with a seasoned, experienced local professional who:
- Takes time to listen and fully understand your personal goals and circumstances from the “get-go”.
- Stays on top of the market so you’ll know right away when properties that meet your needs become available.
- Is willing to go the extra mile to employ strategies for finding “off market” opportunities.
- Is an experienced negotiator and communicator who knows how to make your offer stand out in a crowd.
