According to June’s market statistics, units sold were up by as much as 14 percent from May 2009 and 23 percent from last June. Year to date, home sales are up by approximately 20 percent. The days properties spent on the market were down by 7 percent from June, with an average of 110 days for the entire Tampa Bay area.
The most positive shift in June’s statistics was the increase in home sale prices throughout the Tampa Bay area.

Wow, almost 200% of its price has increased. In the current Real Estate market, whether to rent or buy is tricky, and a lot of people look into rent to buy options. Rent to buy, or lease to own, is where a renter wants the option to purchase a rental property, and for an upfront down payment, usually 3 to 5 % of the price – more than a payday cash advance, and a premium on top of rent, they can option to buy at the end of the lease, and all payments above rent are applied to the purchase price. A rent to buy option can save a lot of cash off a mortgage loan, and maybe save a loan till payday or so a year.
