2020 has certainly been a wild ride, and we’ve seen incredible real estate growth along the Emerald Coast. Part of this is due to the coveted way of life that our area offers. We have a very low crime rate and the people here have an amazing sense of well-being. The beach has amazing healing elements, and more and more buyers realize what an amazing place this is to live. Not only has the beach been popular, but the rental season has been extended to previously unseen lengths.
What do the latest year-over-year stats say? In the Destin area, the average sale price for single-family homes jumped from $654,000 to $787,000.
