May 2014 Monthly Market Detail Florida Townhouses and Condos

For the May 2014 Monthly Market Detail Florida Townhouses and Condos for the state of Florida, activity has decreased from last years hot pace.  Year to year closed sales were down by 7% as compared to last months decrease of 5.1% and new sales under contract (new pending sales) decreased by 13.4% (April’s decrease was 11%).

Both median and average sales prices were up (year to year) by 13.7% and 12.7% respectively (in April it was 9.8% and 10.6%). Continued strong price gains.  This is a bit surprising since the market does appear to be cooling somewhat, though for may it continues to be active and a balanced market.

Inventory rose for the eighth month in a row, by 11.3% (was up by 9.3 in April).  The rising inventory should eventually produce some pressure to moderate the rising prices.  Hopefully, this will help continue the strong momentum for sales activity.  The current 6 month supply of inventory is a good sign that we are in a balanced market.

May 2014 Monthly Market Detail Florida Single Family Homes

May 2014 Monthly Market Detail Florida Single Family Homes

The May 2014 Monthly Market Detail Florida Single Family Homes as reported by Florida Realtors showed improved results from last year, though at a much reduced pace from 2013.  Year to year closed sales were up, but only by 3.6% (was up by 4.1% in April) and new sales under contract (new pending sales) decreased by 0.6% (was down by 1.1% in April).

Both median and average sales prices continue to rise ( May 2013 to May 2014) by 4.3% and 8.9% respectively, compared to April’s 6.1% and 3.8%.   While still positive numbers, the rate of appreciation appears to be slowing.

The inventory of available homes for sale jumped by 20.4% from last year.  This is now the eighth 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.  I suspect that the reduced rate of increasing values and home sales are a direct result of the increasing inventory.  Currently, there are just not enough buyers to absorb this increase fully.  Though with only a 5.7 months supply of inventory, this is still a healthy and balanced market. (2013 had a 5 month supply)

Hobe Sound Real Estate Snapshot for ZIP Code 33455, Condo Sales for May 2014

There are currently 20 active condo listings. (Down by 1 condo from April)

3 Condos sold in April (Down by 2 condos from April)

Hobe Sound FL 33455 Condo Market Report May 2014

The Hobe Sound condo market (Zip Code 33455) is one of the smallest segments of the Martin County real estate market (along with the Jensen Beach condo market).  Unfortunately closed sales were off as well as pending sales for May.  The inventory is now down to only 20 available condos, so I’m not expecting any great movement here until this number can increase.

The current absorption rate is 6.7 months (Last month it was 4.2 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 may not indicate a true trend in the market.  Yet even with these low numbers, we are in a balanced market for condos in the 33455 zip code area of Hobe Sound.  An absorption rate of 6 to 7 months is considered to be a balanced market favoring neither the buyer or seller.

The May 2013 numbers were:  21 active listings, 5 pending sales and 4 closed sales.   Little change in market activity from last years numbers.

Hobe Sound FL 33455 Residential Market Report May 2014

The Hobe Sound Florida Market Report ZIP Code 33455 section of Martin County for May had excellent market activity across the board.  Unfortunately the inventory continues to declines which could have an effect on the total number of sales in the future as there is less to choose from for buyers.  Closed sales were up for May while pending sales were off slightly.  However both sets of activity remain quite healthy.

The current absorption rate for the Hobe Sound Florida Market Report ZIP Code 33455 increased slightly to 5.8 months (5.4 months in April).  A slight sellers market for Hobe Sound, which is where we were for most of 2013.  An absorption rate of 6 to 7 months is considered to be a balanced market favoring neither the buyer or seller.

The numbers for May 2013 were:  228 active listings, 105 pending sales and 50 closed sales.   Not as robust a sellers market as it was in 2013, but still very good activity.

Jensen Beach FL 34957 Condo Market Report May 2014

 

 The Jensen Beach FL 34957 Condo Market Report May 2014 remains a small sector as far as condos in Martin County. After dropping down to very low levels, the active inventory has started to rise now for two months in a row.  Unfortunately pending sales remain fairly low as well as a slower volume of closed sales.

The one month absorption rate for the May 2014, Jensen Beach Florida Market Report ZIP Code 34957 rose to 6.2 months (3.2 months in April), back into a balanced market after an exceptionally active spring.  A balanced market is considered to be a 6 to 7 month absorption rate favoring neither the buyer or seller.

The May 2012 numbers were: 44 active listings, 24 pending sales and 7 condos closed.   Even though the Jensen Beach Condo market activity was better last year, this remains a strong segment for Martin County real estate.

Jensen Beach FL 34957 Residential Market Report May 2014

Continued strong closed sales numbers for the Jensen Beach FL 34957 Residential Market Report May 2014.  Unfortunately pending sales dropped for the second month in a row, which way be an indication of some future weakness in the number of sales.  The inventory also dropped significantly making fewer homes available for buyers to have access to.
 
The current absorption rate for the Jensen Beach Florida Market Report ZIP Code 34957 decreased to 2.7 months (3.4 months in April).  An exceptionally strong sellers market for Jensen Beach home sales.   A 6 to 7 month absorption rate is considered to be a balanced market favoring neither the seller or buyer.
 
The May 2012 numbers were: 103 active listings, 76 pending sales and 27 home sales closed.   Considerably stronger closed sales this year as compared to 2013.  I don’t believe this level of activity is sustainable in Jensen Beach, as I’m expecting a gradual move back towards a balanced market in the coming months.

A little slower market activity for the Stuart FL 34994 Condo market.  Both closed and pending sales were off from May, but don’t let this fool you as this is one of the hottest areas of Martin County and Stuart.

The one month absorption rate dropped to 4.8 months compared to last month’s 4.1.  Still a 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 June the numbers were 112 active listings, 52 pending sales, and 17 closed sales.   No major changes from last years activity.
