It should be noted that the sales data is a little short for the month of September due to Hurricane Irma...
Note from the Chief Economist for Florida Realtors:
- These declines had nothing to do with a change in housing supply
and demand.
Rather, they were directly related to the length of time
businesses, schools, etc. were closed down before and after the
storm.
- There were 20 business days in September (i.e. 21 weekdays minus
Labor Day), so even if title agencies, banks, etc. in your area were only
closed down for four of them, that's 20 percent fewer business days to get
things done right there.
