Century 21 Realtors Move Into Larger Office at the Surfside Shops in Cape Coral, FL

July 3, 2012 - PRLog -- Cape Coral housing prices are in a steady upswing. In response, real estate agent AJ Ackerman, with the Randy Peska & Partners Team at Century 21 Sunbelt, is expanding. The new larger offices will be located at the Shops at Surfside, near the Northwest corner of Veterans Pkwy and Surfside Blvd., in Cape Coral. Next to the entrance to the family friendly neighborhood of Sandoval, the offices will accommodate additional growth and offer future career opportunities with Century 21 Sunbelt.

“I am really excited about the brand new opportunities this market presents for homebuyers and sellers,” says Ackerman! “The Cape’s housing market is back and we are preparing ourselves to provide the best possible services to our clients. Now is a great time to buy or sell in our community.”

Last month the Cape-Coral Daily Breeze headlined, Cape Property Values Up for the First Time in Five Years (http://www.cape-coral-daily-breeze.com/page/content.detail/id/530413/Cape-property-values-up-for-first-time-in-five-years.html) and reported that the estimated total value of property in the Cape was $8.869 billion, up $302 million from 2011. The article quoted Cape Councilmember Rana Erbrick as saying, "Property values are up which means Cape Coral is worth more. It’s a sigh of relief. It means we’re looking at the beginning of a trend.”

Cape Coral homeowners saw an increase in their home values last quarter, with the median sales price for homes, being $115,750. This represents an increase of 9.2%, or $9,750, compared to the prior quarter and an increase of 23.3% compared to the prior year. The average price per square foot for a Cape Coral home is up 18.9%, at $88, as compared to the same period last year.

Homeowners are not the only ones to benefit from this upward trend. Finally, prospective homebuyers can consider purchasing an affordable home and not worry about the property readily decreasing in value. While home sale prices have depreciated 52.8% over the last 5 years in Cape Coral, prices have stabilized and are overall increasing in worth.

“Our office expansion is just one sign of a rebounding economy and I am looking forward to what new possibilities lay ahead,” Ackerman added. “Cape Coral is a great place to live. So, if anyone has any real estate questions or needs I would encourage them to call or visit me at our new offices.”

AJ Ackerman and the team at Century 21 Sunbelt will open their new offices, 2378 Surfside Blvd Ste 133, Cape Coral (http://www.ackermanswfl.com/contact), by mid-July 2012.
