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.

Stuart FL 34996 Condo Market Report September 2015

The Stuart FL 34996 Condo Market is bucking the trend for the off season with increased activity for September.  As we head into the off season for condo sales, this segment of the Stuart condo market has seen some very strong activity, though the greatly reduced active inventory is cause for some serious concern.  This will impact future numbers if we don’t see more units come on the market soon.

The current absorption rate for the Stuart Florida condos in ZIP Code 34996 plunged to 2.6 months from August’s 3.9 months.  Continuing as a very strong sellers market.  A balanced market is considered to occur when the absorption rate is from 6 to 7 months.

Stuart FL 34994 Condo Market Report September 2015

The Stuart FL 34994 Condo market while still active is showing reduced activity as we head into the off season.  The low inventory levels is quite apparent and I’m hoping this will reverse in the coming months or at latest by early next year.  Though even with the low inventory, pending sales increased for the month indicating better closed activity for the near future.

The one month absorption rate increased to 6.5 months compared to last month’s 5.4.  Slipping into a balanced market for the 34994 Stuart zip code condo area after many months of being a strong sellers market.  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 September the numbers were 95 active listings, 42 pending sales, and 20 closed sales.   Better activity last year.  Though the greater inventory is probably a large factor in this.
