The average days on market in Sunrise is 124 days, but well-priced homes in peak season often go under contract in 7–14 days.

Where a Sunrise listing actually reaches
A Sunrise listing reaches buyer agents through the Broward MLS. That is the database an agent searches for a client who has asked about Sawgrass, Sunrise Lakes, Welleby, Springtree, Bonaventure, Sunrise Golf Village, Sunset Strip, Pine Island, Oakland Forest and Sunrise Lakes Phase IV. A listing that is not on it is invisible to every one of those searches, whatever else it is advertised on. Buyers looking at Sunrise frequently look at Plantation, Tamarac and Weston in the same week, so the comparison a buyer agent runs is rarely one city wide.
