The number of home sales in SWFL increased by 12.7% from 2019 to 2020. The dollar volume of homes sold increased by 27.2%. Despite the challenges that 2020 presented, the year ended with a bang… and has continued into the new year thus far.

Comparing December 2019 vs 2020

Below, is a snapshot of some of the SWFL Real Estate statistics we thought were interesting. The chart compares the month of December 2020 with December 2019 (not comparing the entire year, just the month of December). The stats include all of Lee County.

Note: The major decrease in days on market and home inventory levels tell the story of how HOT the real estate market ended in 2020 and continues to be in 2021. Homes are going under contract very quickly, some with multiple offers. Not to mention, we haven’t seen the inventory of homes available for sale this low in a long time.
