The average price per square foot in Miami Shores in January was $249, compared to 2015’s average of $264. It’s common to see decreases in the market on certain months, depending on the type of inventory that sells. 3 out of the 8 sales last month were foreclosures, that’s what makes the sales graph fluctuate. Please do not interpret this slight drop to mean the market is collapsing in Miami Shores. We like to explain it as a conservative market that continues to correct itself. What’s important to point out is that homes that are in move-in condition are the ones selling for top dollar. Today’s buyer finds it difficult to calculate updates and considers those a risk. Homes that need work sit on the market longer and sell for less. If you are a buyer in Miami Shores, pay attention to the average price per square foot. The home that sold last year at $264/SF was an “average home”, in need of repairs – it was not an immaculate property where everything was updated – those sold in excess of $300/SF and in cases, close to $400/SF.
