Mortgages skyrocketed in 2023 as interest rates temporarily, continuously climbed. Approximately, 3.79 million homes were sold - but where?

A new report from Opendoor gathered the zip codes where the most homes were purchased last year. Many of the neighborhoods that topped the list were in Texas, but buyers also found themselves flocking to some parts of Florida.

Of the top ten hottest zip codes, seven of the areas were cities in Texas such as Cypress, Katy, Forney, Aubrey, New Braunfels, San Antonio, and Fort Worth.

A bit further down on the list is where a couple of Florida cities begin to shine.

The 12th hottest zip code of 2023 was Port St. Lucie, FL, followed by Winter Garden coming in at 15. Davenport, FL made 16th place and the 19th hottest zip code was St. Augustine, FL.
