Closed sales were off for the Sewalls Point market report for January 2013. Pending sales were also off slightly. This is the second month of decreasing market activity for Sewalls Point. However, inventory rose sharply in January and this will result in much improved numbers for the coming months.. Now only 36 homes available. This is approaching historic low levels for Sewalls Point.

The absorption rate now stands at 24.5 months, quite a jump from last December’s 6 month absorption rate. This is a strong buyers market again. A 6 month absorption rate is considered a balanced market where neither the seller nor buyer have an advantage.

Comparing the results to January of 2012, the inventory was at 59 homes homes on the market last year, 11 pending sales and there was only 3 closed sales. Considering the inventory is 11 homes less this year, the January 2013 activity is fairly similar if not a small bit stronger than last year.

Martin County Florida Condo Market Report for December 2012

01.30.13 by Gabe Sanders

Martin County Florida Condo Market Report for December 2012

Commentary:

The Martin County Florida Condo Market for December 2012 continues to have its difficulties while the residential segment of the Treasure Coast real estate market is showing positive signs. Sales for December were 54 units down up from 47 in November. Pretty similar to last year’s 52 condos and equal to the 54 sold condos in December of 2010. The inventory rose to 630 condos (up 13 from November) which is 43 condos less than were available last year. This is the third month of increasing inventory. If sales do not pick up by an appreciable amount, the increase in inventory will continue to drive prices down. As evidenced by the median sales price dropping to $100,950 for December of 2012 (Was 110,000 in Dec 2011) The median listing price was also off to $175,000. Whether this is just seasonal drop during the holiday season remains to be seen. Typically we get more higher end condo sales in the spring season.

The one month absorption rate decreased to 11.7 months, while the three-month average is at 12.1 months. Still a very challenging market for condo sellers. But quite attractive opportunities for buyers. We need to see a sustained absorption rate below 9 months for a healthy market and down to 6 or 7 months to be considered a balanced one.

[singlepic id=3239 w=800 h=600 float=center]

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 December 2012

01.28.13 by Gabe Sanders

Martin County Florida Residential Market Report for December 2012

Commentary:

The Martin County Florida residential market report for December 2012 showed strong activity. In a month that typically is slow by historical standards, 166 homes closed, 6 homes better than 2011 and 18 homes better than 2010. All this with an inventory of available homes now down by close to 50% from 2010.

Average and median sales prices were down for December. The inventory of available homes showed an unexpected drop this month after a rise in November. Considerably under the 1426 homes that were on the market in December of 2011 (and the 2764 homes in December of 2007). The one month absorption rate for December remained steady at 6.9 months, while the three-month average dropped to 7.1 months. A 6 month absorption rate is considered to be a balanced market, so we remain in a slight buyers market in Martin County.

January’s showing activity remains strong. Some fairly positive economic data and strong positive Wall Street news should signal continuing positive real estate activity for the next few months. Currently, I’m seeing issues with short sales as the banks seem to be reading the national statistics of increasing prices and are currently pricing many of their short sales at initially unacceptable levels.

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

A bit of a slow down in activity for the Sewalls Point market report for December 2012. Some of this is due to slower activity during the holiday season and also some due to the decrease in inventory. Now only 36 homes available. This is approaching historic low levels for Sewalls Point.

The absorption rate now stands at 6 months. This is an indication of a balanced market. Neither seller nor buyer have an advantage in a balanced market.

Comparing the results to December of 2011, the inventory was at 58 homes homes on the market last year, pending sales numbered only 8 homes, and there was only 5 sales. Considering the inventory is 22 homes less this year, the December 2012 activity was pretty stron compared to last year.
