Southeast Florida homes became in May, further fueling concerns of a market correction, according to researchers at 澳门六合彩历史记录 and Florida International University.

Properties in Miami-Dade, Broward and Palm Beach counties are selling on average for 13.18 percent higher than their long-term pricing trend. In April, homes sold for 12.54 percent more than they should have, and that was up from 11.52 percent in March.

The continued escalation of home values is troubling, though the degree of overpricing is nowhere near what it was during the worst of the historic housing meltdown more than a decade ago, explained , Ph.D., a real estate economist and associate dean in 澳门六合彩历史记录鈥檚 . Back then, homes were overvalued by about 65 percent.

鈥淎n adjustment in housing prices is coming, but probably not tomorrow and not nearly as severe as what we saw before,鈥 Johnson said. 鈥淭he greatest current threat to prices is a noticeable rise in long-term mortgage rates.聽But local housing prices will be supported for some time, due mostly to the extreme shortage of inventory in South Florida.鈥

The latest analysis shows the market is nearing the peak of its current cycle, said , Ph.D., director of FIU鈥檚 Hollo School of Real Estate.

鈥淭rees do not grow to the sky, and neither do housing prices,鈥 Beracha said. 鈥淏uyers should take that into consideration when negotiating.鈥

Another factor for homebuyers to consider is Florida鈥檚 worsening property insurance market.

Saying their exposure has soared from fraud, legal fees and other costs, many Florida insurers are canceling policies and sharply increasing rates for remaining customers. In some cases, insurers are demanding homeowners install new roofs to maintain coverage, even though the existing roofs have shown no signs of age.

鈥淚f we get to a point where consumers can鈥檛 find affordable insurance, it could slow demand for homes, which would have a negative effect on prices,鈥 Johnson said. 鈥淲hat happens with Florida鈥檚 insurance market is definitely worth watching.鈥

In conducting their monthly analysis, Johnson and Beracha review more than 25 years of home prices from , the online real estate portal. The data includes single-family homes, townhomes, condominiums and co-ops.

Johnson and Beracha also are co-authors of the .
