It has been an amazing start to 2020 for the real estate market in our area! Freeport and Niceville are growing by leaps and bounds. Buyers are coming in from outside of the area asking specifically for these areas. As you will see, there is very little in inventory available in comparison to the amount of sales for this past year. Builders are building as fast as they can to keep up with the demand. With interest rates in the 3.5 to 4% range, buyers can afford a larger home and get a wonderful interest rate for the life of the loan.
If you have been on the fence about selling your home, now is the time. I would love to have the opportunity to talk with you and answer any questions you may have. Just take a look at the numbers…
