South Florida condo sales outperform home sales in October In Miami, bulk of condo deals were in the $150k to $400k range

Residential sales across South Florida were up in Miami-Dade, Broward and Palm Beach in October, with condo closings rising roughly 20 percent in each county.

Increases in both home sales and median prices last month were due in part to heightened demand spurred by concerns of rising interest rates, according to the Miami Association of Realtors.
