NW Florida home sales much better than national averages

You may have seen that the February national existing home sales data (January to February) from NAR indicate a decline of nearly 10%.

Well, the statistic local to NW Florida are MUCH better in contrast:

Nationally: -9.6%

Pensacola Association of Realtors Sales: 0% (flat)

Emerald Coast Association of Realtors Sales: -2%

Also, NAR states that new homes cost 45% more than resale home for a comparable structure!

Normally is would be closer to 15%!

This makes a resale home a better value than ever.
