In the past two months, I have sold two listings where the buyers put offers on the homes site unseen.  One was an international buyer from Canada and the other was from Maryland.

Due to the small amount of Parkland home inventory currently on the market, buyers, especially international buyers, are putting offers on properties without first seeing them in-person.  This reminds me of the “good old days” of real estate when buyers were practically lining up to purchase homes, and they could not get their offers into the listing agents fast enough!

I strongly believe that these two recent site-unseen purchases are a direct result of our staging and professional photographs that we take for all of our listings.  All of our Parkland real estate home listings are professionally photographed with a wide-angle lens camera.  We also have many of our listings aerially photograph.  As a result, our listings stand out above the competition and gives potential buyers a unique perspective of our home listings.  Below, please see how these two listings were aerially photographed.  Both buyers flew in to perform their inspections, and we are happy to announce that both listings closed.  Now that inventory has reached a healthy level in Parkland, Florida, perhaps this is a sign of good things to come for the rest of the year and into 2012!

There were 32 total single family sales for the month of July, 2011 ranging in price from $320,000 to $1,800,000. Last month, there were 39 total single family home sales. There were 7 less Parkland single family homes sold in the month of July, 2011 than in
June, 2011. Among the July sales, 14 were distressed sales (bank foreclosures, short sales, or corporate owned properties). 44% of all sales were distresses ones. Home sales have increased steadily in the past few months, as Summer is the busiest time for real estate in Parkland.

In July, 2011, there were a large amount of homes sold in Heron Bay.  Among the 32 sales, 14 were in Heron Bay.  Buyers are finding great value in Heron Bay with luxury clubhouse amenities including resort style pool, fitness center, tennis center, Heron Bay Golf Club, and much more.  I project that there will be even more sales in Heron Bay in the coming months as prices are at bottom prices as well as interest rates are extremely low.

We have also been informing our clients that: It is ironic, but now is the best time to sell or buy Parkland real estate this Summer. With low mortgage rates and homes at affordable prices, more and more buyers can call Parkland home and live the Parkland Lifestyle.

Every month on our website, you can be assured that I will keep the public abreast of all of the monthly sales and market activity, especially with Parkland short sales and bank foreclosure properties. I also publish all of the Parkland residential single family home sales, as being a Parkland resident, I truly know how important it is to know the single family residential sales that takes place in the City of Parkland.

The last Farmer’s Market, Rosy and I enjoyed authentic southern barbecue, which was absolutely delicious, especially the homemade macaroni and cheese.  We also enjoyed the guacamole dip which was made for us right there at the booth.  There are also many arts and crafts booths along with a bounce house for the kids.  So, this is a local event for the entire family to enjoy!
