FORT MYERS REAL ESTATE PRICES HIGHER IN LEE COUNTY! SOLD STATS ARE OUT.

The numbers are in.  Lee County home prices have risen 24% since the same time last year.  The median price in Lee County Florida for a single family home in December 2013 was $177,000.  Median price in December 2012 was $142,750.

The inventory of available Cape Coral Homes, Fort Myers homes and all of Lee County homes for sale is down.  Buyers also are finding it challenging to compete with cash buyers for the available properties.  In 2013, over 53% of the single family homes were purchased with cash.

 If you plan to buy a Cape Coral home or Fort Myers home now or in the near future, be ready with a loan commitment in hand from a reputable lender before you head out the door.  Also, put as much money down as you can.  It's not always the highest offer , but the BEST offer that gets the contract signed, sealed and delivered.
