There’s a relatively low inventory of homes for sale in Miami Shores right now and the demand, although it remains high, is shifting to a pickier buyer.  We are seeing buyers taking longer to make decisions which shows there is no urgency or fear of losing out on a great property.  We are also seeing low ball offers from buyers testing the market. Please be careful, if you are a buyer and decide to strategically throw a low ball offer for a home, you may lose out because sellers do get offended.  As much as it is just business, we are dealing with homes and an emotional process that should not be played with because it is sensitive.  Do your homework! Be objective!  Use all of the inventory, not just 2 or 3 homes, and pay attention to condition and location to compare. Those properties that are in move-in condition or have something special to offer are still selling for top dollar. Take our listing at 1177 NE 100 ST, as an example – sold for record price in Miami Shores.  The location was great, it had an oversized lot, very uncommon 5 bedrooms and was in great condition.

If you are curious about where your house is priced, you can always log into MiamismValue.com and request an automated value, just keep in mind that price will ALWAYS need to be verified and tweaked, because a machine will never be able to estimate the true value of a home.
