I am happy to once again report that Real Estate sales activity on Marco Island remains strong. This week the benchmark 30 year fixed rate mortgage dropped to a historic low of 3.67 percent which is fueling the market. Many smart buyers are taking advantage of this “cheap money” and are jumping in to get their piece of Paradise.
I would also point out that if you drive around the island you will see some home building being done on speculation, another sign of confidence in our market.
If you have been thinking about purchasing property on Marco Island, I implore you to call a local Realtor® and see what is for sale. Years from now you will be glad you did.
