The 34990 zip code area of Palm City condo market is a fairly small section of this area as most property in Palm City is either single family homes or town homes.  Thus making meaningful market comparisons somewhat difficult as small changes can have a great effect on the percentages and results.  For December, sales were off to 3 closed, from 5 the previous month. Pending sales were also off slightly.  The inventory of available condos for sale has taken another small increase for the second month in a row.
 
The current absorption rate for condos in the 34990 zip code area is 21 months.  A very strong buyers’ market, as a balanced market is considered to be an absorption rate of around 6 months.

For the Palm City, zip code 34990, area of Martin County Florida, the real estate activity slowed somewhat for the end of the year.  Both pending and closed sales were off slightly.  The inventory continued to decline as well.   I’m expecting the inventory to rise some with the new year as the current numbers are getting quite low.  If prices continue to increase, many underwater owners will be able to sell their homes with a little profit.
 

The current absorption rate stands at 8.8 months.  This rate still signifies a buyer’s market.  A 6 month absorption rate is typically considered a balanced market that doesn’t favor either sellers or buyers.

The December 2011 numbers were:  478 active listings, 114 pending sales and 57 closed sales.  We are seeing the signs of a reduced inventory for the end of 2012 with a decreased number of closed sales.

[singlepic id=3237 w=600 h=600 float=center]

 

The Stuart condo market for the area in ZIP code 34997 had a fairly slow December to end 2012.  The largest change from November was a sizable drop in pending sales.  This is typical for a December as the real estate traffic is typically slow during the Christmas season.  I am a little surprised that the closed sales numbers weren’t better at years end.

The one month absorption rate is at  9.8 months.  This is still a buyers market for the Stuart Florida Market Report ZIP Code 34997.  Typically, a 6 month absorption rate signifies a balanced market that favors neither the buyer nor the seller.

The December 2011 numbers were: 106 active listings, 21 pending sales and 15 closed sales.  Compared to December of 2011, this year’s market activity was a bit softer.

[singlepic id=3195 =600 h=600 float=center]

The Stuart Florida Market Report ZIP Code 34997 finished 2012 with a strong 62 homes closed.  Pending sales were off which is not unexpected as traffic during the holiday season is typically lighter than normal.  Somewhat troubling though, is the inventory of available homes decreased by 23 homes and is very low.  I’m hoping to see this number rise as we get into the new year.  Should it stay low, we’ll see reduced activity for next year because of a lack of inventory.
 
The current one month absorption rate is at 5.4 months which indicates a slight sellers advantage for the 34997 Stuart zip code real estate market.  Typically a balanced market, favoring neither the seller or buyer, is represented by a 6 month absorption rate.
 
The 2011 numbers were: 522 active listings, 176 pending listings and 78 closed sales.  The most striking number from last year is the difference in inventory of available homes for sale.

After numerous months of strong results for the Stuart Condo market for zip code 34994 even during our off season, the market has cooled slightly as we passed the holidays.  The bright note is that end of year bargain hunters closed on 14 condos an increase from the previous prices.  All were in the under $100,000 price range.  The inventory remained unchanged while pending sales were off.  An expected result as there is typically considerably reduced traffic during the holidays. 

The one month absorption rate is at 11 months, which still signifies a buyers 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 December the numbers were 153 active listings, 35 pending sales, and 13 closed sales.  Almost identical to this years activity.

Martin County Florida Condo Market Report for November 2012

Martin County Florida Condo Market Report for November 2012

 

Commentary:

The Martin County Florida Condo Market for November 2012 showed some improvement from last year, but continues to struggle in a difficult market.  Sales for November were 47 units down slightly from the 50 in October.  Though, considerably better than November of 2011 during which we saw only 35 sales.  The inventory rose to 617 condos (up 43 from October) which is about 60 condos less than were available last year.  I am anticipating a greater increase in inventory as many condo owners try to maximize the seasonal impact of this market.  The median sales price was up in November to $125,000 after taking a sizable drop in October which had dipped to $114,750.  Last year in November the median sales price was $112,500.

The one month absorption rate is up to 13.3 months, while the three-month average is at 12.9 months.  Still a very challenging market for condo sellers.  But quite attractive opportunities for buyers.  We need to see a sustained absorption rate below 9 months for a healthy market and down to 6 or 7 months to be considered a balanced one.

Currently, the condo market is under-performing as compared to our residential market and the condo markets of our southern neighbors.  I do expect this trend to stop as buyers realize the bargains currently available in the Martin County condo market.

Absorption Rate  

 The Definition of Absorption Rate:
Number of months it takes to sell the current inventory at the present rate of sales. Knowing your area’s Absorption Rate, helps to track trends. Understanding the market and where it is headed is part of our job as real estate professionals. Absorption rate is NOT an exact science. Figuring it is based on the premise that one will be looking for a TREND. It is advised to consistently do the numbers each month, to be able to track a trend.

Martin County Florida Residential Market Report for November 2012

Martin County Florida Residential Market Report for November 2012

 

Commentary:

The Martin County Florida residential market report for November 2012 showed strong activity. In a month that typically is slow by historical standards, 169 homes closed, 34 homes better than 2011 and 57 homes better than 2010.  All this with an inventory of available homes now down by close to 50% from 2010.

Average sales prices took a small dip for November while the median sales prices were higher.  This months inventory showed another increase to 1173 homes (up 24 from October), still down from the 1364 homes that were on the market in November of 2011 (and the 2801 homes in November of 2007). The one month absorption rate for November is 6.9 months, while the three-month average is 7.6 months. A 6 month absorption rate is considered to be a balanced market, so we are once again in a slight buyers market in Martin County.

Showing activity remains strong, though we are currently in the middle of the holiday season which normally is a slower market.

Please feel free to contact us if you have any difficulty interpreting these charts.

[singlepic id=3097 w=600 h=600 float=center]

[singlepic id=3098 w=600 h=600 float=center]

[singlepic id=3102 w=600 h=600 float=center]

[singlepic id=3103 w=600 h=600 float=center]

 

The Hobe Sound condo market (Zip Code 33455) is the smallest segment of the Martin County real estate market.  November showed very little change from last month (which showed very little change from August).  There was only one closed sale, while pending sales were up to 10 indicating a better potential for future closed sales.

The one month absorption rate is up to 26 months, signifying that it’s still a buyers market.  But this will almost certainly change in the coming months.   Generally, a 6 month absorption rate is considered to be a balanced market favoring neither the seller or buyer.  But, with such low numbers, these indicators can easily be misleading.

The November 2011 numbers were:  40 active listings, 6 pending sales and no closed sales.  Even in this small slower market segment, we’re still seeing improved activity from last year.
