There are currently 4 homes under contract or pending.  Listing prices range from $350,000 to $2,550,000 or an average of $387.26 per sq. ft. of living area.  3 of the four pending sales are waterfront homes.

Located on the wide Saint Lucie River just east of the city of Stuart Florida is the unique subdivision of Snug Harbor. While the real estate market on the Treasure Coast has it’s problems, Snug Harbor remains a desirable community as recent sales can show.

Snug Harbor was the vision of a group of 10 Yachtsmen, many former Commodores of the Chicago Yacht Club back in 1943. They bought the land and platted the area in September 1944 as well as forming the Snug Harbor Corporation, which controlled the ownership of the lots.

Snug Harbor

In 1975 the deeds were distributed and/or sold to the then owners and a condominium form of ownership was established under the name of the Snug Harbor Yacht Club. With both waterfront and non-waterfront homes and estates, located just minutes away from the ocean by boat or car and also convenient to downtown Stuart, offices, restaurants and recreational areas.

Snug Harbor is one of the finest communities in Martin County. There are only 72 home sites with a club house, deep water marina, boat ramp, trailer parking and tennis courts. There is an active association with social activities year round that make this community a very attractive place to call home.

Please feel free to contact Gabe Sanders (772-323-6996), a Snug Harbor resident and board member, if you would like any information about this wonderful community.

Martin County Florida Condo Market Report for April 2013

06.05.13 by

Martin County Florida Condo Market Report for April 2013

 

Commentary:

The Martin County Florida Condo Market for April 2013 had one of the strongest months in recent history.  After disappointing results from much of the fall season, sales numbers for April were up to 128 units.  This is the highest monthly sales number since I started recording this data in January of 2004.  The inventory of available condos dropped again (fourth month in a row) to only 571 condos.  This low number is beginning to effect prices and at long last it appears that condo prices are starting to rise.   The median sales price was down compared to March, but this is a reflection of the larger number of lower priced condos that sold this month, rather than decreasing value.  Summer is upon us and typically the condo market slows down during the summer months.

The one month absorption rate dipped to 4.46 months from last months 6.93 months, while the three-month average is now at 6.32 months.  A considerably improved condo market after many years of stagnant results.  We have now slipped into a slight sellers market for certain segments of Martin County’s condo sales.  Generally an absorption rate of 6 or 7 months is considered a balanced market.

This summer will be very interesting.  If we don’t have an increase in inventory and buyers remain active, I expect some fairly good price gains.

 The Definition of Absorption Rate:
Number of months it takes to sell the current inventory at the present rate of sales. Knowing your area’s Absorption Rate, helps to track trends. Understanding the market and where it is headed is part of our job as real estate professionals. Absorption rate is NOT an exact science. Figuring it is based on the premise that one will be looking for a TREND. It is advised to consistently do the numbers each month, to be able to track a trend.

Martin County Florida Residential Market Report for April 2013

 

Commentary:

The Martin County Florida Residential Market Report for April 2013 continued the strong trend that began towards the end of last year.   Considering that the available inventory has shrunk considerably, the number of sales for the month is quite impressive.  In fact, our inventory levels are approaching numbers that may have a negative effect on sales volume in the upcoming months.  Many prospective buyers may not be able to find homes that fit their needs.

Both the average and median prices were up significantly for April.  The inventory did not decline from March, going up by only one unit.  Possibly an indication that many who have been waiting for an improving market are starting to list their homes.    The one month absorption rate for April 2013 increased slightly to 4.52 months (from 4.38 months in March), and the three-month average is now down to 5.26 months.  A 6 month absorption rate is considered to be a balanced market, so we are officially in a a sellers market in Martin County.

Positive economic news as well as continued low interest rates continue to drive buyers into the market.  While interest rates remain very attractive, there have been slight increases in the past few weeks.  There are also an increasing number of properties that have sold above asking price with multiple offers.  While we have a long way to go to see prices at the level of the boom around 2006, sellers are seeing a much improved market at present.

Please feel free to contact us if you have any difficulty interpreting these charts.

Good activity continues as reported by Florida Realtors for the April 2013 Monthly Market Detail St. Lucie County Townhouses and Condos.   Year to year closed sales were up by 12.4% and new sales under contract (new pending sales) increased by 56%

Both the median and average sales prices have shown gains this month of 18,7% and 6.5% respectively. 

The inventory of available townhouses and condos have decreased to 904 units which id down by 26% from last April.  Current supply of inventory is now 8.8 months (a 40.9% decrease from last year).   While these results are not quite as strong as in the single family market, they still show strong gains from previous years.  It is just a matter of time before prices start rising a bit more dramatically.  This current environment is an excellent opportunity for buyers looking into the Saint Lucie County real estate market for townhouses and condos.

Another strong month as reported by Florida Realtors for the April 2013 Monthly Market Detail St. Lucie County Single Family Homes.   Year to year closed sales were up by 20.9% and new sales under contract (new pending sales) increased by over 70%!!

Both median and average sales prices were up (April 2012 to April 2013) by 15% and 11.8% respectively. 

One item of concern is the active inventory which has decreased by almost half (48.7%).  Current supply of inventory is only 3.9 months (a 58.2% decrease from last year).  For April 2013 it was a strong sellers market in the St. Lucie County area.  The reduced inventory will eventually result in lower sales volume as there just isn’t enough homes available for sale.  This will also result in strong upward pressure on prices and at some point renewed activity in new construction.  If prices rise to a level where currently underwater home owners can see a profit or even a break even price, I will expect a gradual increase in inventory.April 2013 Market Detail Saint Lucie County Single Family
