Market report for the Valencias August 2022 shows closed sales in Delray Beach, Boynton Beach and Lake Worth, Florida. You can read what went on in each Valencia community in Boynton Beach, Delray Beach and Lake Worth.
We have seen a slowdown, a shift, in the past few months from a strong seller’s market to a more balanced market. There has been an increase in inventory. More inventory means more choice for buyers, more sales with contingencies and fewer, if any, multiple offers. Days on market has increased.

Caution: If you think you may have a breed-restricted dog or a few pets, check the particular Valencia you’re interested in first. Do your due diligence. Don’t rely on what someone told you or what the listings say. They are often wrong. Find out from the source. Because while the Valencias are pet-friendly, they may not be pet friendly to all breeds and number of pets.
The past year has been complex in real estate. There has been very low inventory and prices have gone up. Although the market has softened, prices are still up. We are now seeing more inventory, which is great. Days on market are up too. Read on and you will see.
Prices do vary from one Valencia community to another.. Lower pricing can be found in the older Valencias (well, not that old!) and they go way up. There is also more inventory to be had in the older Valencias, as it’s the cycle of life. In my opinion, you can still get a great deal if you’re not looking for new and willing to do some work. If you’re willing to take a resale versus new, you will do much better on price, taxes and probably location, too. Some of the houses in the older Valencias are barely 10-15 years old.
Buyer Beware
The builder has raised prices considerably the past several years, but there are a lot of great resale homes in other Valencia communities. You need a great Valencia Real Estate agent to help you find the best deals – someone who is on your side, not the builder’s side or the seller’s side. Don’t make the mistake of going directly to the builder or listing agent alone. Always take a buyer’s agent with you. Reason? Builders’ sales people don’t care which community you buy in or what lot you buy. They’re not going to tell you about traffic and noise, but an honest buyer’s agent will.
And listing agents have a contract with the seller to get them the highest price possible. So how does that benefit you, the buyer? Simple. It doesn’t. Yes, they can help you and they’re willing to. Why? Because it allows them to collect a double commission without working for you, the buyer. Make sense now? If you think about it: How can they get you, the buyer, the best deal? The answer is simply, they can’t. They have a fiduciary responsibility to the seller. Caveat Emptor! Buyer Beware!

New Construction
Interested in new construction? You need a buyer’s agent – Free to you! Builders do not negotiate on their homes. You may as well take a Buyer’s Agent with you – it’s free to you and may save you some money or offer some great suggestions. A real buyer’s agent – not someone who claims to be. I can help you with new construction as well as resales in Valencia.
You need someone on YOUR side. The builder is not on your side. The nice sales people in the office are not on your side – they are there to sell houses. Neither is the listing agent on the sign on your side. Take a few moments and read that article.
In today’s world of new construction, you have to deal with lotteries and consider when your house will be built. I’ve built two homes, but times are different. We weren’t dealing with supply chain issues, as we are today. In my opinion, while a new house is nice, it’s also nice to know when it will be done and what the final cost will be. With a resale – even if it is just a few years old, it’s something tangible. You can see it, feel it and touch it. You know what you’re getting. Make sense? Some people only want new, and that’s fine. Just know what you’re dealing with upfront.
If you have a certain breed of dog, check which Valencia will accept him or her. Same thing goes for number of pets. Buyer Beware! Not every Valencia may be dog friendly to your specific breed of dog or two or three. Some have changed their pet restrictions through the years.
