It measures how difficult it is to win a home based on multiple factors which include days on the market, share of homes that sold above their listing prices and sale-to-list price ratio.

“Before the pandemic, we were seeing empty nesters sell their 5,000-square-foot homes in Weston and move into smaller beachfront homes in Fort Lauderdale,” said local Redfin real estate agent Anthony Cervoni. “Now we’re seeing the opposite—people are coming here from the city because they’re tired of being trapped in cramped condos and apartments.”
There are many factors that go into why a City or community is considered a top choice for families but Weston has been and continues to be that City. Weston has key elements that were established and maintained from the beginning: strong quality schools, high quality public safety services and low crime, access to quality health care, top notch parks and recreation and fiscally sound government. When you add these with the intangible factors of immaculate and distinctive landscaping and aesthetics, cultural offerings, community spirit and unique governmental structure and a commitment to maintain infrastructure even in the face of downturns, you have a community that is desirable and desired in all environments – whatever the markets or pandemics bring.
