December 2014 Monthly Market Detail St Lucie County Townhouses and Condos

The December 2014 Monthly Market Detail St Lucie County Townhouses and Condos as reported by Florida Realtors showed very strong sales activity for the final month of 2014. Closed sales were up by 29.8% (was down by 22.5% in November) while new sales under contract (new pending sales) increased by 20.2% (was down by 0.9% in November).

The median sales price was up by 8.3% (down 3.7% in November) and the average sales price decreased by 5.1% (was up by 8.1% in November). Prices for townhouses and condos in the St Lucie County market have been erratic for the past few months. With the improving economy and low interest rates, I expect to see increases in 2015.

The inventory of available townhouses and condos increased by 8 units from last month to 683 properties, which is still down by 22.3% from last December. Current supply of inventory remained unchanged from November at 6.5 months. This is 25.3% lower than last year. The St. Lucie County townhouse and condo market remains in a balanced market. It is good to see a continued increase in inventory for December after many months of decreases.

December 2014 Monthly Market Detail St Lucie County Single Family Homes

December 2014 Monthly Market Detail St Lucie County Single Family Homes as reported by Florida Realtors continues to produce year to year improvements. Though, for December the volume of sales increases has declined a little, while prices continue to rise quite strongly.  Closed sales from last year were up by 6.7% (in November they were up by 12.7%) and new sales under contract (new pending sales) increased by 10.5% (they were down by 19.9% last month).

Both median and average sales prices were up again (year to year) by 16.3% and 14.8% respectively from last December (For last month these figures were 11.9% and 5.2%).  Better increases than last month and more than double the state averages.

The inventory of active listings decreased in December (from last month) by 46 homes to 1,748, which is also lower than last year’s inventory by 20%. The current supply of inventory is only 3.6 months (a 29.5% decrease from last year). A strong sellers market for the Saint Lucie County single family home market. This reduced inventory is exerting strong pressure on keeping price increases high.  When and if more inventory comes on line, I expect price increases to moderate considerably.

The inventory of available homes for sale rose by 1.2% from last year. This is now a full 15 months of increased inventory.  The rate of inventory increases has declined significantly from previous months and this is an important statistic to watch for the future. For this month there was only a 5.2 months supply of inventory, this is a sellers market with the advantage for sellers. (December of 2013 had a 5.5 month supply)

24 Homes Sold in December (Increased by 9 homes from November).

Stuart FL 34996 Residential Market Report December 2014

The 34996 zip code area of the Stuart Florida residential real estate market had increased inventory for December and a nice jump in closed sales.  Unfortunately pending sales were off.  I’m expecting continued increases in inventory as the new year gets under way and most likely an increase in pending sales as well.

The one month absorption rate for the 34996 zip code area of Stuart Florida for December decreased to 7.3 months as compared to November’s 10.9 months.  Still a buyers market, but almost back into a balanced one.  A balanced market, favoring neither buyer or seller is considered to be around a 6 to 7 month absorption rate.

The numbers for December of 2013 were: 128 active listings, 25 pending sales and 16 closed sales.  For the 34996 residential real estate area, there’s a considerably more inventory of available homes this year when compared to last year.  Pending sales are not as strong as last year which may indicate a little weaker start to the year.  Closed sales were better for this year, though.
