I just down loaded September's data from the MLS. Jacksonville is stable to trending up. Some of the metrics are up from a year ago and some are the same.
Leslie - September data? The only public data is that from Aug 2018.
What is most intriguing are the ATTOM reports on another site about the best flipping and rental markets in NE Florida. Wages (+2.6%) are not growing as fast as appreciation (+6.0%), so home affordability is becoming more of an issue for first time buyers.
Not sure what you mean about September the report runs through 9/30?
Home affordability is definitely a problem everywhere. As long as we are more affordable than our peer cities, we will continue to move up. Before investing in a market, I always recommend googling, "can the average worker afford the average house in XXXX".
