Here are the Numbers

 Deep Dive into Market Stats

 

The real estate market in Key West, Lower Keys and Middle Keys has faired extremely well through Covid-19.  In those markets, year to date, we are seeing the number of sold homes outpacing last year by 2% but the real change that sticks out is the sold volume and average sale price.  Sold volume is up 6% and the average sale price is up 5%.  Inventory and interest rates are leading factors in our local real estate market.  Inventory is up slightly on some Keys but down slightly on others.  Overall, we continue to see low inventory on the market which is leading to upward pressure on our prices.

HOMEBUYERS ADVISE

What Makes A House Spooky?

Have you ever toured a home and just wanted to run right back outside? Maybe something hit you negatively, but it could be easily fixed. If the location and price are good, updates could be the answer. Ask yourself: what would you do to make a creepy home warm and inviting?

Improve lighting –Dark rooms can be spooky. Low light, especially from too few windows, can also be depressing. Can windows be enlarged? Can the electrical be updated to allow for the installation of sconces and ceiling lights? 

Re-design living areas – Low ceilings, awkward layouts, or rooms too small for their purpose can make a home feel claustrophobic. Can the ceilings be raised into the attic? Can a wall or two be removed? Can space be “borrowed” from another room for better flow?  

Simple maintenance – Keeping a home in good condition shows that it’s loved, while neglect makes homebuyers feel uncomfortable. Can obvious flaws be fixed and at what cost? 

Freshen - If the problem is odor, it could be pets, smoking, old furnishings, or musty spaces. Dampness can suggest a leak in bathrooms or kitchens.  Can the smell be identified and eliminated through cleaning or remodeling?

Modern updates – Homes stuck in the past need updating which can eliminate a lot of problems? Is there enough room in the budget to remodel to get the home to meet your criteria?

You could turn the spookiest house in the neighborhood into the home of your dreams.

LOCAL NEWS

2020 Key West Bubba Awards

On behalf of the Keys Weekly, our partners at Florida Keys Media and our sponsors—we are proud to support Community Wins with each and every one of you. Typically, this stage of the voting would be open to any and all entries. However, due to the impact of Covid-19, as many businesses continue to struggle, we decided to alter this year’s competition and list the last six years of Bubbas winners in each category. And most of all, find a way to give back to an amazing and much needed cause during this time.

With so many canceled events, many of our workers and residents are in need of assistance now more than ever. So please thank our sponsors for supporting Community Wins—which supports the housing needs of Aids Help, FKOC, Sister Season Fund and Samuel’s House. And we ask that our voters consider supporting as well. And remember, this is a celebration of why we love Key West. We are, in fact, One Human Family. Voting is subjective. Love and appreciation for the community is not. There are simply no losers whether someone is on the ballot or not. So join us and have fun…and please support Community Wins together.  

  • Voting Begins Friday, Sept. 18 at 5 p.m. EST
  • Voting Ends Friday, Oct. 16 at 5 p.m. EST
  • Everyone is eligible to vote once per week.
  • Look for weekly updates at www.keysweekly.com and from our radio partners at Florida Keys Media 
  • Please visit CFFK.ORG/COMMUNITYWINS  to support.
