For the fifth month in a row, Miami real estate prices have hit a new high. As of January, the new median is $470,000. In Miami-Dade, the median price for a single-family home increased by more than 25% from January 2020 and up more than 3% from December. The prices for single-family homes have been increasing since September. This spike is expected to continue rising as inventory becomes more limited.
The current spike in sales is mostly due to three types of buyers: Millennials, first-time buyers, and junior-level executives working remotely. According to the Miami Herald, Florida welcomes about 660 new residents daily. Despite the rising Miami real estate prices, historically low mortgage rates keep motivating buyers.
