Miami Enjoys Over $3.1 Billion in Residential Sales in Q3

According to the Miami Association of Realtors, total Miami-Dade County home sales surged 15.2 percent in 3Q 2018 as median prices for all properties rose for the 27th consecutive quarter. Total Miami sales rose 15.2 percent, from 5,895 to 6,792. Miami condo transactions jumped 16.7 percent, from 3,021 to 3,524. Miami existing single-family sales increased 13.7 percent, from 2,874 to 3,268. Third quarter statistics include September, which was impacted by stalled sales in 2017 due to Hurricane Irma. While sales have been trending upwards, the percentage is higher than it might have been because of closings delayed by the hurricane last year.
