12 Homes Sold in October (Unchanged from September).

The 34996 zip code area of the Stuart Florida residential real estate market had a surprising jump in inventory for October. While this should be good news for buyers as there is a better selection of available homes, the corresponding increase in sales activity has not yet materialized.

The one month absorption rate for the 34996 zip code area of Stuart Florida for October continued to slide up to 13.4 months as compared to September’s 11.3 months. A strong buyers market for this section of Martin County. A balanced market, favoring neither buyer or seller is considered to be around a 6 to 7 month absorption rate.

The numbers for October of 2014 were: 156 active listings, 32 pending sales and 11 closed sales. While closed sales were close to last year, the reduced number of pending sales this year is a bit troubling.

28 Condo sales are pending and awaiting close or lender approval. (Decreased by 7 condos from last month)

15 Condos Sold in October (Up by 4 condos from September).

The Stuart FL 34994 Condo market while still active is showing reduced activity as we head into the off season. Though remaining in a good and steady balanced market vicinity.

The one month absorption rate increased to 5.8 months compared to last month’s 6.5. Continuing to hover in the balanced market area. Typically a real estate market is considered to be a balanced market with an absorption rate of 6 to 7 months. Meaning neither the buyers or sellers have an advantage in the real estate market.

Last October the numbers were 94 active listings, 31 pending sales, and 16 closed sales. Slightly stronger activity last year. Though the greater inventory is probably a large factor in this.

Palm Beach County September 2015 Market Report

Palm Beach County September 2015 Market Report

“Although the number of Palm Beach County home sales increased only 1% for August, we are back to a double-digit gain for September with 13% year-over-year. However, this market indicator may dip slightly for October if a substantial number of closings are delayed due to recent closing procedure changes which affect borrowers. We recommend that borrowers work closely with their lenders and title companies, who are well-prepared for these changes, to prevent potential closing delays. For more information about these changes, a helpful infographic can be downloaded from www.SouthFloridaPropertyMatch.com,” said Matt Halperin, 2015 President of the Realtors® Association of the Palm Beaches (RAPB).

“Since the beginning of the year, St. Lucie County has consecutively experienced double-digit increases in median sale price of single family homes when compared to the same time period in the previous year, and September reflected an increase of 15.3%. While investors may be shying away from purchasing single family homes, both sellers and end users are still benefiting from the significant boost in our current market indicators. If you are in the market looking to buy or sell your home, I suggest speaking with a local REALTOR® from the REALTORS® of St. Lucie County (RSLC), a division of the Realtors® Association of the Palm Beaches (RAPB), for real insight on the homeownership process.

Martin County September 2015 Market Report

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).
