Cash Sales percentage of total sales has become a significant issue. In the display below, you can see the large percentage of cash sales in our local Condo & Town Home market. There were 73 total sales in August and 52 of those sales were Cash Buyers. Closed sales held steady for the month compared to last month but the PENDING sales are down – which is normal for “end of season” on student housing.

The Gainesville condominium real estate market continues to be good for buyers. Our market statistics for closed sales show that condo buyers are now getting mortgages for their condo purchases. The biggest obstacle for condominium sales is a buyer’s ability to obtain a mortgage. Each condominium complex will be analyzed by the mortgage lender & underwriters for loan approval. Call me to find out which condo complexes will qualify for FHA Financing. Your lender will want to know if the condominium you are interested in is a “true condo” or a PUD (Planned Unit Development).
