Florida Keys Home Prices Holding Firm

Over the past year, overall home prices in the Florida Keys have remained stable, if not slightly higher than previous years. They are stable, but they’re still quite high! Frankly, in my 15 years of experience in real estate here in the Florida Keys, I’ve only seen prices go up!

Now, I’ll share that we’re experiencing more inventory. During the crazy real estate run, we were down to just 1,300 listed properties for sale. But now, for the first time in years, we’ve broken over 2,000 homes for sale.

We’ve been diligently tracking the number of listings week by week for some time. In March, we observed our highest number of listings, reaching 2,177 homes for sale. Our high season typically spans from January to April, peaking in March, so that seems to be right on track. I suppose only time will tell if that will be our high inventory level for the year.

I’ve started to notice a decrease in prices in the condo market. I believe the condo market has been hit pretty hard with all the new regulations and requirements. If you’re in the market for a condo and you’re not familiar with all the new laws and regulations, you should definitely check out our blog for more information.

Insurance in the Florida Keys has seen a significant increase in recent years. FEMA’s Risk Rating 2.0 initiative, while a bit chaotic, has notably impacted flood insurance costs. Additionally, Citizens, our main wind insurance carrier, has mandated that if you have wind insurance, you must also have flood insurance, further driving up prices. These insurance factors are starting to influence pricing more here in the Florida Keys. Whether they will pull prices down remains to be seen. Time will tell.
