DOUGLAS ELLIMAN RELEASES EXCLUSIVE 2ND QUARTER 2020 ELLIMAN REPORT FOR THE MIAMI, BOCA RATON, FORT LAUDERDALE, AND PALM BEACH MARKETS
It is with great pleasure that I share with you the just released second quarter 2020 “Elliman Reports” for the Florida sales markets, the leading resource on the state of these markets. Our market reports are produced in conjunction with Miller Samuel to provide you and your clients with the most comprehensive and objective market insight available.
After a robust first quarter, the COVID-19 market shutdown during much of the second quarter caused sales to fall sharply. In other words, this is what a shut down during a global pandemic looks like. We expect a more active third quarter conditioned on how the second wave looks.

Single-family sales declined year over year at its highest rate in 13 years as median sales price surged.
