The market in Manatee County appears to have settled in at a relatively balanced place for now. Although there is still less than 4 months of inventory available, it is more than double what we had a year ago. Buyers and sellers are both in a position to negotiate to get balanced deals in today’s market. I tend to like these markets as real estate professionals can truly make a difference for their clients for both home buyers and home sellers. The infographic from Florida Realtors below has more detail on the market through June.

New listings outpaced closed sales in April in Manatee County. That said, new pending sales are up year over year, and the market seems to be finding a good balance for home buyers and sellers. As we are heading into our slower summer, there is value to be found for buyers; however, sellers can still do well when they ensure their home is staged for sale. The infographic below from Florida realtors contains more details on the month of April.
