2011 continued to provide many challenges for the real estate market, but wecontinued to succeed in producing the best results possible for our valued clients and customers. With almost $15,000,000 in sales volume for 2011, it was a "Sterling" year for us at Stirling Sotheby's International Realty.
Some good news worth considering:
Buyers are returning from the sidelines. Like most other Florida regions, Central Florida was impacted by the recession.
But Central Florida in particular is expected to recover first and fastest, and lately we have been seeing signs that just such recovery is forming. Buyers are returning from the sidelines.
Buyers are using the Internet. Ninety percent of all home sales in the U.S. start with an Internet search. For sellers of existing homes, a strong Internet presence is critical. Recently StirlingSIR.com – Stirling Sotheby’s International Realty’s web portal – was ranked by an independent research firm as one of the most popular real estate web portal in Florida, with more than 1.2 million page views annually by people from more than 150 countries worldwide.
Buyers are coming from everywhere. The market for Central Florida homes is truly global. Stirling Sotheby’s is part of the largest luxury real estate brand in the world. Sotheby’s International Realty has over 500 offices in 42 countries around the world.
Many buyers are paying all cash. We are seeing many more all-cash buyers in the market today, which we can attribute in part to the global interest in Central Florida homes.
The market has changed. Clearly, the real estate market has evolved. But so have your resources. With fantastic new tools that make home-buying an exciting discovery. With new approaches that generate sales of luxury, executive and estate homes throughout Central Florida.
The Sally Andy and David Warren Team and Stirling Sotheby's International Realty are leading this evolution with the most powerful marketing tools, the most successful marketing approach and the broadest marketing scope in the industry today.
The Sally Andy and David Warren Team of Stirling Sotheby's International Realty continue to be top producers in Central Florida, year after year. We remain positive and optimistic about Central Florida’s real estate market andsteadfastly committed to continued success in 2012.
