How do seasonal buyers affect my sale?

Short Answer

The Keys market has distinct seasonal patterns. Snowbirds and seasonal residents drive demand from fall through spring, while summer sees more family buyers and relocations. Timing your listing to match buyer activity can significantly impact your sale.

Steve's Advice

Principal, Conley Sales Group at COMPASS

The Keys market has a strong seasonal rhythm. Your ideal buyer is often a snowbird who has been visiting for years and is finally ready to buy. I market to that audience specifically because they understand the lifestyle and are motivated to close before peak season.
