Market Trends
The Forgotten Coast real estate market continues to be characterized by a healthy demand across most price segments. Waterfront properties, in particular, command a premium, reflecting buyers’ desire for the coastal lifestyle that the area uniquely offers. However, there is also a steady interest in inland properties, where more space and privacy can be obtained at a more accessible price point.
Inventory levels have increased compared to the previous week, providing prospective buyers with more options. However, properties in prime locations and those that are well-priced are selling quickly, often receiving multiple offers. This competitive environment underscores the importance of working with a knowledgeable local agent, such as The Peevy Team, who can provide buyers with a strategic hyper local advantage.
Looking Ahead
As we move into the coming weeks, we anticipate the market on the Forgotten Coast to remain vibrant. With summer approaching, the allure of coastal living is expected to draw more buyers to the area. Sellers considering listing their properties may find this an opportune time, as demand for vacation homes and investment properties typically increases during this season.
