Tampa Area Housing Sales & Prices Rise in June

TAMPA - The June housing report released Tuesday by Florida Realtors paints a fairly bright picture of the market here with more closed sales and better median housing prices than the Tampa metro area saw a year ago.

Closed residential real estate sales are up 7.5 percent over June 2013 in the Tampa-St. Petersburg-Clearwater metropolitan area and the median sale price on the homes that sold was up 2.4 percent for a single family unit and up 9.6 percent over June 2013 for condos and townhouses.

The state’s housing market, overall also saw more closed sales, higher median prices, more new listings and a rise in inventory in June. Closed sales on single-family homes statewide totalled 23,181, up 14.6 percent over the June 2013 figures. The median price, statewide, up 5.2 percent from the previous year.

 

The median existing-home price for all housing types in June was $223,300, which is 4.3 percent above June 2013, according to the National Association of Realtors. June figures mark the 28th consecutive month of year-over-year price gains.

“I think the June report is super reflective of our local market,” said Tony Gonzalez, a Tampa residential real estate consultant and Realtor for Keller Williams.
