St Lucie County Townhouses and Condos March 2022 Market Report

04.25.22 by

St Lucie County Townhouses and Condos March 2022 Market Report

The St Lucie County Townhouses and Condos market had weaker sales activity when compared to last March. Until the unprecedented low inventory levels ease, I don’t expect much-improved sales activity. People can’t buy what doesn’t exist! Closed sales were down by 11.5% from last year (were down by 3.0% in February). New pending sales were down by 36.6% for March (they were down by 25.1% last month).

Prices continued to rise in March. The median price increased by 11.5% from last year (was up by 11.8% in February) and the average sales price increased by 13.9% (was up by 24.4% in February).

The inventory of available townhouses and condos decreased by 6 units from last month to 135 residences. This is 42.8% less inventory than we had in March 2021. The current inventory supply is 1.0 months, as compared to 2.0 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.
