Marco Island Realtors say numbers don’t always tell the story.
At least, when it comes to home values and sales on the island.
When the Florida Association of Realtors reported a more than 60 percent drop in median prices for single-family home resales in the Marco Island area in January, it made it appear the island is suffering more than it is from a housing slump, Marco Realtors said.
That’s because the statistics include sales made in outlying areas, such as Golden Gate, Port of the Islands and Everglades City, and only give a one-month view, which can show erratic changes in sales activity and price.
The state numbers reflect all home sales made through the Marco Island Area Association of Realtors’ MLS, or multiple listing service. They come directly from Marco’s Board of Realtors.
The state report showed the Marco area had the largest drop in median price for single-family homes in the state in January.
“We are painting the wrong picture. When you just look at the Marco numbers, it’s pretty incredible,” said Jim Prange, a Realtor with Premier Properties of Southwest Florida on Marco Island.
