IHS Global Insight ranks Vero Beach as the 2nd Most Undervalued Real Estate Market in the U.S.
IHS Global Insight, one of the world’s leading forecasting companies, just released their latest quarterly survey of House Prices in America, and while the news is mixed on a national basis, the findings are quite encouraging for potential buyers in32963. According to IHS, “house prices in the U.S. ended a two-year decline, and edged up slightly over the second quarter. The rate of decline has decreased among metro areas as the market has begun to stabilize. Yet it is not certain that the housing market is on a recovery path. Economic conditions remain dire and significant headwinds exist in stubbornly high unemployment rates.” And now for the good news: Of the 330 U.S. metropolitan areas surveyed, IHS ranked Vero Beach Florida the #2 Most Undervalued Housing Market in the U.S. According to IHS, the median housing price of $206,900 in Vero Beach was roughly 30% overvalued in 2005, while other Florida markets like Naples and Port St. Lucie were 40-50% overvalued. In contrast, all Florida markets are significantly undervalued today according to IHS with Vero Beach’s current median home price of $123,300 approximately 40% undervalued. While in32963 focuses exclusively on higher end properties, it’s not easy to extrapolate to the Barrier Island; however, the “undervalued” validation from a credible third party is encouraging for potential buyers and bargain hunters in32963.

On Assignment…Gladly! It may have been cold recently in Florida, but it’s still freezing in NYC.
When it’s freezing across most of the Greater 48, the New York-based national media outlets look for any excuse to come to Florida…even if it’s to cover a story on cold weather. As evidence, you couldn’t turn on the television over the past week without seeing some fluffy fleece pullover-packing talking head sensationalizing the recent cold weather in Florida. They stood in citrus groves marveling at baby icicles, they drove our highways chasing the elusive Sunshine State snowflake, and they even predicted a reptilian event of almost Biblical proportions: frozen iguanas falling from the skies. Now here’s the post-freeze reality in32963: orange juice futures are up slightly so expect to pay a little more for your Tropicana this winter, the aerial lizard invasion never materialized and, most importantly, warm weather and sunny skies have returned. In fact, the long-range forecast in32963 is outstanding: low temperatures moving back into the 50°-60° range and high temperatures consistently in the 70’s with a few 80° days mixed in for good measure. (15-day forecast Chart). So is that the end of cold weather this year in32963? Of course not, but unlike the Midwest and the Northeast, our future cold bouts won’t involve inches of snow falling from the sky. Now frozen lizards…that’s another issue entirely.
