February Home Sales Indicate A Rapidly Improving Real Estate Market
The Tampa Florida real estate market continued to show consistent improvement in February, 2011 with 1,591 homes of all types sold versus 1,427 sold in January. The average sales price also improved from $133,426 to $135,140.
This trend, if it continues as it surely appears it will, will accelerate the return of the Tampa real estate market to equilibrium during 2011.
There were improved sales volumes across all types of homes with 1,141 single-family homes and villas sold in February versus 1,016 in January. There was also good news in condos and co-op sales with 405 sold in February versus 370 the prior month. In other categories, there were 45 sales versus 41 in January.
Perhaps, most significant as a predictor of a future trend, the inventory of unsold homes on the market in Hillsborough County dropped from 15,152 or an 10.6 month supply down to 13,948 or an 8.8 month supply. This means that at the current rate of sales all existing homes on the market would be sold in 8.8 months. A real estate market is considered to be in equilibrium between buyers and sellers when the months of supply reaches about a 6 month supply. Things are clearly moving in that direction at this point giving us reason to feel very positive about a Tampa real estate market recovery in 2011.
Home prices here in Tampa Bay are now at levels lower than they have been in many years, but as the statistics above reflect, the real estate market is improving. Prices will not stay this low for much longer.

Every day, people can easily search for news articles, and describes the impending bust of the so-called real estate bubble. Despite this gloomy forecast, many experts believe that the recent slowdown in housing will be gradual and modest adjustments to the bust, or a sharp decline. Experts believe that the factors leading to a sharp downturn in the housing market is not only the current economic outlook. Indeed, a recent study of the Joint Housing Studies at Harvard University found that "despite the current cool-down, long-term prospects for housing brilliant."
