News for the housing market overall in January is very good. As reported by the Jacksonville Business Journal, home values jumped 23% year over year to a median price of $136,000.
But as we’ve always stressed, real estate, and home values, are hyper-local. So while northeast Florida’s home prices are trending up as a whole, you may be interested to see that Ponte Vedra’s median home values are actually down 12% year over year. But the news isn’t all bad in Ponte Vedra…the number of homes that sold over list price is up dramatically (129%) and number of days on market continue to decrease.
Point is, the major media outlets serve large metropolitan statistical areas. So they take a very macro look at housing data.
