BREVARD COUNTY, FLORIDA – As more people continue to identify their changing needs this year, some are turning to the upscale housing sector for more space or finer features especially here on Florida’s Space Coast. 

Closed single-family sales over $1,000,000 increased 50% compared to this same time last year in Brevard County while available inventory for sale decreased 14.3%.

“More and more luxury buyers are contacting me to help them find a piece of Space Coast real estate,” says Jennifer McCoy with McCoy Freeman Real Estate.

“The challenge is the lack of available inventory so buyers need to act quickly if they find the home that is just right for them.”

In their most recent Luxury Market Report, the Institute for Luxury Home Marketing (ILHM) shares:

“In a snapshot of 2020, despite the devasting effects of the coronavirus pandemic, the luxury real estate market has seen one of its strongest years since 2008. In comparison to experts’ predictions in early 2020, it is remarkable how significant demands for property type, location, and amenity preferences have changed amid the pandemic.”

With more opportunities to work from home and a growing interest in having extra space for things like virtual school, working out, and cooking more meals, the desire to own a home that can meet these needs continues to increase.

Additionally, record-low mortgage rates are creating opportunities for homebuyers to stretch their legs into higher price points or even expand their real estate portfolios.

The ILHM report continues to say:

“Experts believe that the demand for exclusive residential properties outside the metropolitan areas will continue well into 2021; even with the introduction of vaccines, the pandemic is far from over.

For those who have moved to the suburbs and beyond, moving back to the city full time is unlikely while the work from home trend remains. Many of these affluent homeowners are now making their secondary properties their primary residences for the foreseeable future.”

Bottom Line: If you’re hoping to buy the home of your dreams, this could be the year to achieve that goal. Let’s connect today to explore your possibilities.
