Unlike the television show, Numb3rs, I am not going to get into any fancy or complicated formulas. I am just going to state the real estate numbers for Miami-Dade County as of the end of the first quarter of 2009. You can use them to make your purchasing or selling decisions, to get a glimpse of what is going on in our market, or to fill in awkward silences at cocktail parties.
Overall Numbers
- 35% of all listings on the MLS are either short sales or REO
- 59% of all sales on the MLS are either short sales or REO
- 82% of all residential sales are under $300,000
Single Family Home Numbers
- 20% of single family home sales are under $100,000 (yes there are homes under $100k in Miami but hurry, they are only 6% of the inventory and going fast!)
- 3% of single family home sales and 14% of the inventory are over $1,000,000. Inventory in this price range is at 83 months, up from 55 months this time last year
- 17 month supply of single family homes down from a 42 months supply 1 year ago (Wow, that was fast!)
Condo Numbers

- 3% of condo sales and 9% of inventory are over $1,000,000. Inventory in this price range is at 88 months up from 41 months last year.

Stay tuned for future episodes!
