Average DOM 

(Days on the Market)

The Puerto Vallarta and Banderas Bay Real Estate Market is made up of both full-time retirees and second-home owners; as a result 95% of purchases are done without a mortgage or financing and for this reason, we experience higher Days on the Market (DOM) than metropolitan cities.

Due to the higher demand of real estate properties and more competitive asking prices, the average Days on the Market (DOM) in 2022 decreased, referenced as a 7.42% drop for condos and 8.67% drop for houses from January 2022 to January 2023.

New Listings

Restricted permits for new construction and increased levels of Return of Investment (ROI) in existing construction contributed to a reduction in the number of new listings, referenced by a 29.5% drop for condos and a 17.3% drop for houses.

Sold Listings

High levels of real estate demand, competitive asking prices and high levels of Return of Investment (ROI) were determining factors that lead to an increased amount of SOLD condos to 7.3% and the historical 26.4% increase of sold houses.

We are experiencing low levels of inventory, together with the fact that the housing demand is higher than the new real estate listings coming to market, as referenced in a 25.7% reduction of condos for sale and a 12.2% drop of houses for sale.
