Hold on to Your Hats: The Puamana Real Estate Market is Positively Effervescent

After a complicated year for real estate sales in 2020, I’m happy to confirm that Puamana is experiencing a very healthy bounce back. In fact, Puamana is now considered to be a strong seller’s market and inventory is non-existent. When I started writing this blog, we had zero listings, but now we have 2 Puamana properties for sale as of beginning June.

There have been 10 sales in Puamana in 2021 not even halfway into the year, with sales volume of $21,579,000 (Data from June 1st, 2021). To put this in perspective, the average turnover in Puamana is 8 sales per year with $10M in sales volume annually.

Since my last blog, everything sold or is pending sale! Interest rates are still historically low, people are still itching to get out of the urban centers and live somewhere safe like Puamana: near the ocean, low-density, with a garden, fast wi-fi, and…pickleball. In fact, most of our buyers over the past 6 months will be owner occupants, living in Puamana full-time, and many have young children. More about the frothiness of the Puamana market, click here.
