Florida Single Family Homes July 2022 Market Report

Florida Single Family Homes July 2022 Market Report

The Florida Single Family Home market activity had lower sales volume compared to last July.  While we continue to have historically low inventory, we are also facing rising interest rates and higher prices. I expect inventory to continue to increase which will exert downward pressure on prices and hopefully an increase in sales. Though, this will take some time. (Don’t ask me how long!) Closed sales were down by 22.9% (were down by 17.2% in June). New sales under contract (new pending sales) were down by 19.2% (were down by 20.9% in June).

Prices are still going up.  The median sales price rose by 16.1% (it was up by 19.7% in June). And, the average sales price was up by 12.0% (it was up by 13.9% last month).

The inventory of available homes for sale increased by 67.5% from last year.  This represents a 2.2 months supply of inventory. Florida remains in a seller’s market with a major advantage for sellers. (July 2021 had a 1.2 months supply)  A balanced market favoring neither buyers nor sellers is considered to be one with a 6 to 7 month supply of inventory.

St Lucie County Townhouses and Condos June 2022 Market Report

07.27.22 by

St Lucie County Townhouses and Condos June 2022 Market Report

The St Lucie County Townhouses and Condos market had weaker sales activity when compared to last June. While we continue to have historically low inventory (though it is increasing), we are also facing rising interest rates and higher prices. I expect inventory to continue to increase which will exert downward pressure on prices and hopefully an increase in sales. Though, this will take some time. (Don’t ask me how long!) Closed sales were down by 38.8% from last year (were down by 34.7% in May). New pending sales were down by 36.4% for May (they were down by 29.5% last month).

Prices are still rising. The median price increased by 44.8% from last year (was up by 18.4% in May) and the average sales price increased by 28.9% (was up by 24.1% in May).

The inventory of available townhouses and condos increased by 38 units from last month to 201 residences. This is 24.8% greater inventory than we had in June 2021. The current inventory supply is 1.8 months, as compared to 1.1 months of inventory last year.  The St Lucie County townhouses and condos real estate market remains in a tight sellers’ market, mainly because of the decrease in inventory. Typically a 6 to 7-month inventory is considered a balanced market showing no advantage to either buyers or sellers.
