Miami is Affordable Again

During the housing market boom in the late 90’s and early 2000’s Miami residents began looking for lower priced real estate options. If they were renting their rent nearly doubled in ten years, if they were looking to buy real estate had jumped from $250,000 to $500,000 dollars which led some Miami residents to seek cheaper real estate in Homestead and Hollywood. But, with recent drops in home values the cost of real estate has gone back to what it was ten years ago and it won’t be rapidly rising anytime soon.

For those who fled Miami’s overpriced real estate market can finally come home. Rental prices, condo and home prices have become much more practical and are slowly stabilizing. Now is a great time to come back to Miami. Homes that cost upwards of $450,000 dollars in 2002 are now selling for $250,000 to $300,000 dollars. The housing crisis surely has affected many people negatively, but for those who chose to leave or not buy a home, it’s an incredibly opportune time.
