Should You Buy a 2-Story Home in Venice?

New home builders are including more and more 2 story homes as a way to build more heated square footage on a small lot.  Builders are also taking a cue from census data that shows more demand for multi-generational homes.

Is buying a 2 story home in the Venice area a good idea?

I analyzed Venice FL MLS data for 2 story, 3+ bedroom single family homes sold within the past 180 days, and one story single family homes during the same period.

Median Sales Price Per Sq Ft:  Two story $132,  One story $140
Median Days on Market:   Two story 92 days, One story 45 days

Avoid 2 story homes whenever possible.  They take longer to sell and appeal to far fewer potential buyers in the Venice, FL area.
