What the numbers say for Tavares buyers
142 of the 255 Tavares homes on the market (56%) are asking less than they did on day one, and 125 (49%) have been listed 60 days or longer. Those two figures are the practical case for making an offer here. A seller 57 days in who has already cut once is a different negotiation than one of the 130 listings still inside its first 60 days.
Across the 142 Tavares listings that have already come down, the typical reduction is 4.2% off the original asking price. That is the size of a first concession, not a final one.

About Tavares
Tavares is the county seat of Lake County, 19,003 residents at the 2020 census.
It was founded in 1880 by Alexander St. Clair-Abrams, a newspaper and railroad man who named it for a Portuguese ancestor. He wanted it to be the state capital and put over half a million dollars of his own money into it. That did not happen, but in 1887 it was designated the county seat, and he later chartered a railroad from Tavares to Orlando. The town incorporated in 1919.
