Interesting Real Estate Stat For This Edition:

Every month we’ll pull an interesting stat for you directly from our MLS for Pinellas County.

The stats below reflect the average residential sales price for homes in Pinellas County over the past 10 years (187,814 listings).

The average sales price for a home in Pinellas County was $238,975 in 2008.

The lowest it was in the past 10 years was $166,370 in 2011.

Years after the recession we are now higher as of 2018 than pre-recession home prices with the average sales price being $286,869.

This is due to many factors including a healthier economy, better lending practices and an increased demand from buyers in a sellers market.

Homes appreciated for the county as a whole 8.9% from 2016 to 2017 and 9.3% from 2017 to 2018.  There is a large wave of people that are moving every day to our tropical area.
