NAR REPORTS EXISTING HOME SALES WERE UP 15% IN JUNE IN FLORIDA

It’s nice to hear good news. 
·        For 22 consecutive months sales activity has increased in the year to year comparison
·        Statewide sales in June were up 7.7% over May
·        Statewide existing-home median price of $143,400 was 2.1% higher than May’s $140,400
·        This is the 4th month in a row that statewide existing-home median price has increased over previous month
·        16 metropolitan statistical areas showed higher sales for existing condos, many for 24 consecutive months.  
·        Condo price median was $181,300 in May nationally; Florida existing condo median sales price in June was $95,000.  In June 2009 it was $112,800, a 16% decrease.

None of us would disagree with National Association of Realtors (NAR) Economist Lawrence Yun, who said that as the employment rolls rise, so will home sales.
