Martin County September 2015 Market Report

“Florida Realtors® reports a remarkable jump in Martin County’s average home price for the month of September to $437,996, up 40% from the previous year.  This surge in pricing can be attributed to the incredible increase in the number of properties that sold for over a million dollars; there were 14 to be exact, which is a 366% increase year-over-year. While our overall pace of sales remained typical for this time of year, our median days on market decreased 43%, leaving us with only a 4.5 months’ supply of inventory.  Prospective buyers and sellers may ask, will these trends continue?  Only time will tell, but snowfall has already been recorded up North, and local REALTORS® agree that nothing could be more beneficial to Martin County real estate sales than another brutal, northern winter.  So, if you’re buying or selling, be sure to enlist one of your local real estate professionals,” said John Slivon, Treasurer of the Realtors® Association of the Palm Beaches (RAPB).

The St Lucie County townhouse and condo market continues as a sellers’ market, typically a 6 month inventory is considered a balanced market showing no advantage to either buyers or sellers.  The shortage of inventory is hurting the sales volume and continues to impart strong upward pressure on prices.

Both median and average sales prices continue their gains with increases of 15.3% and 15.6% respectively from last September (For August these numbers were 13.5% and 9.7%).  These increases in prices can be a bit of a warning sign as prices seem to be rising much faster than some can afford.

The Saint Lucie County single family home market remains a very strong sellers market.  We are seeing a reduction in volume of sales because either there isn’t enough inventory available on the market or prices are becoming to high.

September 2015 Monthly Market Detail Martin County Single Family Homes

The September 2015 Monthly Market Detail Martin County Single Family Homes showed a second month of continued weakness when compared to last year for volume of sales.  Year to year closed sales were down by .5% (was down 8% in August). New pending sales decreased by 6.6% as compared to September of 2014 (decreased by 2.4% in August).

The median sales price was up by 7.1% from last year (up by 9.6% in August) while the average price increased by 40.5% (was up by 10% last month).  The lack of inventory is driving down the volume of sales while at the same time exerting tremendous upwards pressure on prices..

The inventory of available single family homes increased from last month by 54 homes to 1057 units this month, and this is still a 14% decrease from last September.  Current supply of homes is 4.5 months, for August of this year it was a 4.3 months supply. (This is a 24.7% decrease from last year). The Martin County single family real estate market remains a strong sellers market.  We are approaching our slower selling season for the upcoming holidays.  I am hoping to see the sales volume start increasing again as we seem to be slowly having some additional inventory additions.

Hobe Sound FL 33455 Condo Market Report September 2015

The Hobe Sound condo market (Zip Code 33455) is the smallest segment of the Martin County real estate market.  We remain with only 2 active listings in the Hobe Sound.  It’s pretty incredible that there is as much activity as there is.

The current absorption rate is 1 months (Last month it was .67 months).  This absorption rate should be taken with a liberal grain of salt, as small changes in activity make for very large changes on percentages that may 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 September 2014 numbers were: 19 active listings, 1 pending sales and 2 closed sales.  Considering there are only 2 active listings this year 1/9th of what was available last year and we still have similar activity is pretty amazing.

 The Jensen Beach FL 34957 Condo Market Report September 2015 remains a small sector as far as condos in Martin County and making meaningful comparisons with such small numbers can be problematic.  Activity remains remarkably strong in Jensen Beach condos even though the inventory is now very, very low.  As we head into the slower months (historically), I’m hoping to see some more product come on the market.

The one month absorption rate for the September 2015, Jensen Beach Florida Market Report ZIP Code 34957 dropped to 3.7  months (from 4.4 months in August), even a stronger sellers’ market than last month.   A balanced market is considered to be a 6 to 7 month absorption rate favoring neither the buyer or seller.

Joes Point on Hutchinson Island

One of the most unusual properties on Stuart’s Hutchinson Island is Joes Point.  Located on a private peninsula which juts to the north west into the mile wide Indian River (Intracoastal Water Way). Originally developed by Lloyd Dutcher in the early 1980’s this is a premier waterfront subdivision enjoying the many wonderful amenities of Hutchinson Island in Martin County.  Only minutes to the Saint Lucie inlet and the sparkling Atlantic Ocean by boat, with easy access to the Bahamas or through the Okeechobee water way through the heart of Florida to the Gulf of Mexico by boat.  This is a true boaters paradise.  Abundant fishing is just off the dock or go just a few minutes further for some deep sea fishing and adventure.

 Joes Point on Hutchinson Island

Joes Point has 56 home sites (3 are vacant lots at this writing) of which most are waterfront with private docks and sweeping water views of the Intracoastal Waterway (Indian River). There are 8 non-waterfront homes, though they have docks in the community marina which is just a short walk from these homes.  There is also a community RV/Boat storage area as well as a tennis court.  HOA fees as of late 2015 were under $245 per month and include central water and sewer service.

Pets are welcome as well as having the ability to rent these homes.  This is a gated community offering a high level of privacy on the shores of the Indian River.  Beach access is across A-1-A in a private and HOA owned beach area.
