“FORTFARANDE FYNDLÄGE LÄNGS FLORIDAS KUSTER” – Dagens Industri, 2016-02-07

Varje vinter flyr tusentals svenskar till sina bostäder i soliga Florida. Fastighetspriserna klättrar stadigt uppåt, men det är fortfarande överraskande prisvärt att skaffa boende i The Sunshine State. Över 3.000 soltimmar om året, lugn och ro, låga levnadsomkostnader och vita stränder har lockat hit de många svenskar som redan har tagit steget eller önskar att bosätta sig i Florida. Intresset för USA:s soligaste delstat som en andrahemsmarknad för européer uppstod i samband med störtdykningen av bostadspriserna 2006, och har inte svalnat. ”Marknaden är fortfarande glödhet, även om just svenskarna har börjat bli något mer försiktiga och tar längre tid på sig”, säger mäklaren Peter Hassel på City & Country Homes. Inte heller den dyra dollarn (säljkurs 8,15 på fredagen) verkar skrämma bort solsugna svenskar på jakt efter ett semesterhem, eller en fastighet att investera i. ”Vi märker inte av att dollarn är dyrare. Det är fortfarande rejält prisvärt jämfört med Medelhavsländerna, och utbudet är fortfarande större”, säger Susanne Perstad, på Gulf Gateway Realty på Floridas västkust. En samstämmig bild bland mäklarna är att bostadsmarknaden är ”sund”. Nyproduktionen har tagit fart på flera håll, vilket anses positivt eftersom många – både inhemska och internationella spekulanter – vill ha nytt. ”Bankerna vill börja låna ut pengar igen, räntan är stabil, och arbetsmarknaden är bra så det finns en god underliggande efterfrågan”, säger Per Nordström, som driver mäklarfirman Team Nordstrom på Floridas västkust tillsammans med sin fru, Helena. De senaste två åren har bostadspriserna gått upp med 10 till 15 procent per år. Uppgången drivs av en fortsatt hög efterfrågan och ett allt mindre utbud. ”Det är inte som för fem år sedan när man kunde välja och vraka och lägga skambud, den tiden är förbi”, säger Per Nordström. Intresset från inhemska kunder är störst, för Per Nordström står de för cirka 70 procent av kundunderlaget, medan resten är svenskar. Vissa köper för att själva bo under vissa perioder på året, och hyra ut när de inte är där för att täcka omkostnaderna. Andra, cirka 30 procent enligt Miami-mäklaren Carole Smith, köper enbart för investeringen. Peter Hassel ser en tydlig trend i hur svenskar köper, och delar in klientelet i två grupper. Den första är de som köper under lågsäsong, som han beskriver som mogna, målmedvetna och ”väldigt köpbenägna”. ”De är beredda att köpa oavsett tid på året, och vet precis vad de vill ha, oftast för att själva bosätta sig på lång sikt”. Den andra gruppen är de som kontaktar en mäklare under […]
