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.
