Florida Single Family Homes March 2018 Market Report

The Florida Single Family Homes March 2018 Market Report showed somewhat weaker activity when compared to last year, but still remains a very active market. Closed sales were down by 3.5% (were up by 3.3% in February) and new sales under contract (new pending sales) were down by 2.2% (were down by 1.0% in February).

Prices though, continue with their upward march.  The median and average sales prices up by 8.2% and 8.7% respectively, compared to February’s 9.6% and 7.4%.

The inventory of available homes for sale fell by 7.5% from last year.  For March there was a 3.8 months supply of inventory as Florida remains in a seller’s market with the advantage for sellers. (March of 2017 had a 4.1 month supply)  A balanced market favoring neither buyers or sellers is considered to be one with a 6 to 7 month supply of inventory.  Inventory continues to decrease which is putting pressure on rising prices and lower sales volume.

 Hobe Sound FL 33455 Condo Market Report March 2018

The Hobe Sound condo market (Zip Code 33455) is the smallest segment of the Martin County real estate market.  Sales and pending sales were both up for this month.

The absorption rate for Hobe Sound condos was 4.5 months for March as compared to 10.0 months in February). Absorption rates in this segment of the Martin County real estate market should be taken with a liberal grain of salt, as small changes in activity make for very large changes in percentages that do not reflect a true trend in the market. An absorption rate of 6 to 7 months is considered to be a balanced market favoring neither the buyer or seller.

The March 2017 numbers were: 16 active listings, 4 pending sales, and 4 closed sales.  Stronger activity last year for Hobe Sound condo sales, but better pending activity this year with much lower inventory.
