Escambia & Santa Rosa County recap of 2013 Real Estate Market

Every quarter, the Pensacola Association of Realtors releases local real estate market reports.  I want to share with you the results of the 4th quarter of 2013.

Here are a few highlights:
  • Prices are up but price growth is slowing:  The current median home price was $149,400 for Pensacola compared to $197,000 National Average 
  • Florida's economy has outpaced the rest of the US:  Employment is strong and on an upward trend with lower unemployment than the national average
  • Pensacola area New Construction is on the rise with almost 10% more new construction than the national average.
  • Home Ownership in the Pensacola area is more affordable than most markets:  The monthly mortgage payment to income ratio was 8.7% for 2013 in Pensacola with 14.9% for national average. 
Interest rates are expected to increase some during 2014 with a projected average 30 year fixed mortgage rate of around 5% for 2014.

This is great news for the improving Pensacola area real estate market and for both Escambia & Santa Rosa Counties in Northwest Florida.
