Fort Lauderdale Oceanfront Condo Index Summary (over $1M)
- Fort Lauderdale luxury condo inventory (active/available resales over $1M) = 197 condos.
- With 197 luxury condo listings for sale today and five sales last month, we have a 39-month supply.
- This condo inventory indicates slower absorption and a strong buyer’s market; a “healthy” is considered 6-9 months or less.
- Each condominium tower shows us (averaged) 5.2% of building inventory available – each tower should have condo inventory of less than 10% to be considered “healthy.”
“As for South Florida’s condominium market, which includes townhomes, sales declined in Broward and Miami-Dade counties but increased 5 percent from a year earlier in Palm Beach County.” – SEPT 2017 Article
