-Although there were more (active) distressed properties a year ago, Cape Coral saw a strong February with 326 total closings, an increase of 18% overall.
-The average sales price dropped last month from a year ago, as a result of the number of active distressed and non-distressed homes on the market. -Distressed properties typically sell for more than list price which caused the average sales price this year to drop by 2% or $5k.
