August 2014 Monthly Market Detail Florida Townhouses and Condos

For the August 2014 Monthly Market Detail Florida Townhouses and Condos for the state of Florida we’re seeing some disappointing numbers as compared to last year.  But, this is still an active market, just not as robust as it was last August.  Year to year closed sales were off by 8.8% as compared to last months decrease of 6.7% and new sales under contract (new pending sales) decreased by 13.1% (July’s decrease was 13.9%).

Both median and average sales prices were up (year to year) by 3.8% and .5% respectively (in July it was 7.4% and 2.6%). Prices rose very rapidly last year and continue to go up this year though at a much more sustainable rate.  The reduced rate of appreciation should bring some more skittish buyers back into the market.

Inventory rose for the eleventh month in a row, by 8.9% (was up by 10.9% in July).  While the August 2014 numbers show a marked decrease in activity levels this is still a seller’s market as there is currently a 5.7 months supply of inventory (was 5.7 months in July) which is up 10.9% from last year.  A 6 months inventory supply is considered a balanced market.

August 2014 Monthly Market Detail Florida Single Family Homes

The August 2014 Monthly Market Detail Florida Single Family Homes as reported by Florida Realtors continues to improve though at a much reduced rate from last year.  Year to year closed sales were up by 4.2% (was up by 5% in July) and new sales under contract (new pending sales) increased by 3% (was up by 2.3% in July).

Both median and average sales prices continue to rise ( August 2013 to August 2014) by 3.4% and 4.3% respectively, compared to July’s 3.6% and 4.1%.   A much more reasonable rate of appreciation than last year’s large double digit rises.

The inventory of available homes for sale rose by 13% from last year.  This is now the eleventh month of increased inventory.  This increase is a direct result of rising prices as many home sellers have been waiting on the side lines for improved values.  This increase in inventory makes for greater choices and more price competition among sellers. With only a 5.5 months supply of inventory, this is a healthy market with a slight edge to sellers. (August of 2013 had a 5.1 month supply)Florida Single Family August 2014

Hobe Sound FL 33455 Condo Market Report August 2014

 

The Hobe Sound condo market (Zip Code 33455) is the smallest segment of the Martin County real estate market.  Unfortunately with only 1 pending sale, future activity could be quite weak.  No change in closed sales for August.

The current absorption rate is 9 months (Last month it was 8.5 months).  The statistics within this segment should be taken with a grain of salt, as small changes in activity make for very large changes on percentages that August not indicate 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 August 2013 numbers were:  14 active listings, 8 pending sales and 1 closed sales.  Pending sales were considerably stronger last year with a smaller inventory.

Snug Harbor Stuart FL Sewer Plan

Snug Harbor Stuart FL Sewer Plan

Snug Harbor in Stuart Florida which is officially known as the Snug Harbor Yacht Club is a residential community in Martin County comprising of 72 home sites.  Snug Harbor lies in an unusual situation as it is an enclave in the very eastern part of the area that is almost entirely located in the City of Stuart, yet Snug Harbor is not part of the City and most residents want to kep it this way.

Recently, the City of Stuart has proposed bringing a hybrid sewer system into Snug Harbor to allow Snug Harbor residents to hook up to the city system.  Though, any one wishing to hook up must sign an agreement not to oppose the City annexing Snug Harbor into the City.  Many of us see this as nothing more than a back door way for the City to increase their tax revenue while providing Snug Harbor with a de-facto decrease in the level of service which we currently receive from Martin County.

Please watch the video below to see what the Snug Harbor residents had to say to the Martin County Commissioners.
