Destin, Florida Real Estate Trends: Jan-June 2022

Spotlight on the Destin Market for Jan - June 2022

Average sales prices continue to increase (18%) YTD compared to the same time in 2021.

Inventory levels are starting to increase, giving buyers more selection, and listings are selling close to their asking price.

Here is a quick snapshot of the YTD real estate market in Destin, Florida and the surrounding Gulf Coast from January to June 2022.
