“However,” Jean-Luc adds, “homeowners will often list their home prices too high, which leads to a series of price reductions in the coming months.”

Mix that with families who want to already be settled before the new school year, and you have yourself a less competitive South Florida market, leading to lower prices and higher chance that you’ll end
