4 Homes Sold in August (Decreased by 12 homes from July)

Stuart Florida 34994 Residential Market Report August 2019

The residential real estate market for the 34994 ZIP code area of the Stuart, Florida had a pretty dramatic drop in closed sales for the month while also having a large increase in pending sales.  This is most likely a result of a number of delayed closings due to the hurricane.

The one-month absorption rate for the 34994 zip code for August jumped to 21.8 months from 5.6 months for July.  Transitioning into an extreme buyer’s market for the 34994 zip code area of Stuart, FL.  I anticipate that this is just a temporary one-month situation.   A 6 to 7-month absorption rate is considered a balanced market where neither the seller nor buyer have an advantage.

The August 2018 numbers were 71 Active Listings, 28 pending sales, and 15 closed sales.  We have a larger inventory of available homes for sale in this segment of the market.  pending sales are considerably stronger this year while closed sales were weaker.

Sewalls Point Single Family Market Report August 2019

The single-family real estate market in Sewalls Point is continuing with stronger activity than in recent years.  Pending sales were quite weak this month and this may be a result of the hurricane scare that we had during the latter half of the month.

The absorption rate dropped to 4.2 months, in July it was 5.3 months.  Remaining in a seller’s market for the Sewalls Point single-family home market.  A 6 to 7-month absorption rate is considered a balanced market where neither the seller nor buyer have an advantage.
