2016 SOLDS
The year to year growth in property values has been remarkable and outpacing the national and even local surrounding markets (except Winter Garden to its West). What is really interesting is that the average sold square footage went up per home sold… over 200 a foot .. usually larger homes sell for slightly less than smaller sq ft homes, the land it sits on is worth similar value in the same area.
What happened in the last 12 months is really remarkable , because as a real estate expert or a novice you can easily assume that bigger homes will sell for more money… That would explain the WHOPPING $88,000 increase in average closed price… and $23,000 in median closed sale price….
BUT…
What really is remarkable is while the size of the home has jumped, the average $/ft jumped too, a staggering $11.07 a foot…. ! Approximately 5% jump in average sale price with a 6-7% jump in sold square footage.
If you are a long time reader of this quarterly publication, it has been discussed for several years how the Winter Garden development has been alluring qualified buyers west at a steady pace. This 3rd quarter was really no different , the new High School opened its doors driving high demand to south Winter Garden and SW Windermere communities.
