As Tropical Storm Hilary now substantially weakens this week, real estate data provider CoreLogic estimates that approximately 1,553,803 residential homes in the western U.S. were at an elevated risk of inland riverine flooding over the last few days. This includes both single- and multifamily residential properties.
According to national property broker Redfin, listings of homes for sale in the several Southwest Florida cities like the Cape Coral-Fort Myers metropolitan area have recovered after plunging in the wake of Hurricane Ian last fall, and sales have begun to bounce back.
Based on new research by CoreLogic, more than 22,282 pending mortgage transactions currently in progress in Florida's 20 affected counties are in jeopardy from storm surge and flooding caused by the recent hurricane, Ian. Nearly 14,000 are purchase transactions where the state's average home sales price is $452,000 (as of June 2022).
According to national property broker Redfin, about three-quarters of U.S. metropolitan areas, where more than half of homes experienced intense drought in August 2022, have seen more people move in than out in recent months.
