Shopping for a home in Tradition, St. Lucie West, or Vero Beach this fall? Buyers have real room to negotiate right now.
Here's what the numbers say right now:
β’ Port St. Lucie: the median house sold for $420,000 in September, and more than half of houses for sale (52.2%) have cut their asking price.
β’ Vero Beach: the September single-family median was $387,500, with about 5.3 months of inventory.
β’ Mortgage rates: the 30-year fixed averaged 7.40% in Freddie Mac's latest weekly survey.
With rates where they are, new construction is worth a hard look. Many builders are offering rate buydowns, closing-cost help, or flex cash, but every offer has fine print: the required lender, closing deadlines, lot premiums, and HOA or CDD fees that show up on your tax bill.
We help you compare new communities and resale side by side, and because our broker is also a Florida-licensed contractor, we walk the build with a builder's eye, from pre-drywall to final walkthrough.
One tip: many builders require your agent to be registered on your very first visit, so reach out before you tour a model.
