2 Homes sold in August (A decrease of 5 homes from August)Sewalls Point Residential Market Snapshot for Sept 2013

 

The Sewalls Point residential real estate market is having a slow summer.   For September 2013 sales were down significantly as only 2 homes sold.  Pending sales were up by 1 home, though still not a very high number.  We are into the slower months of our real estate market and there is also a lot of unease with the current economy, so we will hope for an increase in activity soon.  Though it may not happen till after the holidays.

The absorption rate jumped dramatically to 24.5 months.  Once again into a buyers market.  A 6 month absorption rate is considered a balanced market where neither the seller nor buyer have an advantage.

Comparing the results to September of 2012, the inventory was 50 homes on the market, 20 pending sales and there were 3 closed sales.  The biggest difference from last year is the much lower pending inventory in 2013.  Not a good sign for sales in the immediate future.Sewalls Point Residential Market Snapshot for Sept 2013

Martin County Florida Condo Market Report for August 2013

Martin County Florida Condo Market Report for August 2013

 

Commentary:

The Martin County Florida Condo Market for August 2013 showed better numbers than in previous years on a year to year comparison.  Still a bit slower than we would like.  Inventory decreased to 511 units (after a nice little jump last month).  It was back in 2005 when we had steady inventory levels below 600 units.  The median sales price decreased in August indicating the mix of sales has once again shifted to the less expensive mainland condos, though still above last year’s value significantly.  Much of the median price results are driven by the mix of units selling.  We had a good number of higher end waterfront condos sell in previous months.  And, while prices are not declining any more in the overall market, they also are not making any large increases at this time.  Prices remain very sensitive to the community and the available competition.

The one month absorption rate increased to 9.46 months from last months 8.92 months, while the three-month average is now at 8.5 months.  We’ve slipped back into a buyers market for martin County condos.  Generally an absorption rate of 6 or 7 months is considered a balanced market.

Higher interest rates remain troubling for the market in general, but is not as strong an issue for our condo market as we have a fairly high percentage of cash buyers.  If the economy continues it’s improvement, I expect another good season for the condo market in Martin County for the upcoming year.

Martin County Florida Residential Market Report for August 2013

Martin County Florida Residential Market Report for August 2013

 

Commentary:

The Martin County Florida Residential Market for August 2013 continues to produce better results as compared to recent years.   For July 2013, the inventory dropped below 1,000 homes for the first time since August of 2005, but we are now back to just over 1,000 homes on the market.   If prices begin to rise with any significance in the broad market (they are already rising in certain segments), I expect the inventory to increase as more potential sellers that have been on the sidelines will enter the market.

Both median and average sales prices declined in August from last month, but are still improved year to year.  The one month absorption rate for August 2013 decreased to 5.1 months (from 5.3 months in June), and the three-month average is 5 months.  A 6 month absorption rate is considered to be a balanced market, so we continue to be in a sellers market in Martin County.  Considering the fact that we have entered our slower season, we continue to have better activity as compared to previous years.

We’ve had a very good run in the market to date this year.  There are a few storm clouds on the horizon, though.  Mainly higher interest rates and a very uncertain economy along with questionable activities coming from our legislators in Washington D.C.

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

August 2013 Monthly Market Detail St Lucie County Single Family Homes

The August 2013 Monthly Market Detail St Lucie County Single Family Homes as reported by Florida Realtors continues the positive trend that has been apparent all this year, though at a more moderate rate for August.   Closed sales were up by 3.5%  (in July they were up by 4.3%)  and new sales under contract (new pending sales) increased by 17.8% (they were up by 55.6% last month).

Both median and average sales prices were up (year to year) by 12.7% and 9.2% respectively. 

The inventory of active listings declined in August to 1841 homes, down by 31.3% from last year.  Current supply of inventory is only 4.3 months (a 31.3% decrease from last year) and unchanged from July.  For August 2013 this remains a strong sellers market in the St Lucie County area.  Lower inventory typically results in lower sales volume as there just isn’t enough homes available for sale.  This will also result in strong upward pressure on prices and at some point renewed activity in new construction.  If prices rise to a level where currently underwater home owners can see a profit or even a break even price, I  expect to see continued increases in inventory.

August 2013 Monthly Market Detail Florida Townhouses and Condos

The August 2013 Monthly Market Detail Florida Townhouses and Condos for the state of Florida continues to show gains though not as robust as they were in the spring of this year.  Year to year closed sales were up by 6.3% as compared to last months increase of 16.8% and new sales under contract (new pending sales) increased by 11.6% (July’s increase was 20.7%).

Both median and average sales prices were up (year to year) by a healthy 25.2% and 18.6% respectively. 

One item of concern is the active inventory which has decreased again, for August by 13.8%.  The reduced inventory will eventually result in lower sales volume as there just isn’t enough homes available for sale.  This will also result in strong upward pressure on prices and at some point renewed activity in new construction.  If prices rise to a level where currently underwater home owners can see a profit or even a break even price, I will expect a gradual increase in inventory.Florida Townhome Condo

More good news for the Florida real estate market as reported by Florida Realtors for the August 2013 Monthly Market Detail Florida Single Family Homes for the entire state of Florida.  All indices have once again moved in a positive direction with the exception of inventory (active listings), though not by quite as large percentages as last month.  Year to year closed sales were up by 12.5% (was 20.9% in July) and new sales under contract (new pending sales) increased by 17.2% (was 25.9% in June).

The inventory of available homes for sale remains a concern as it continues to decrease, down by 12.3% from last year.  The reduced inventory will eventually result in lower sales volume as there just isn’t enough homes available for sale.  This will also result in strong upward pressure on prices and at some point renewed activity in new construction.  If prices rise to a level where currently underwater home owners can see a profit or even a break even price, I will expect a gradual increase in inventory.Florida Single Family Market Detai

The Hobe Sound condo market (Zip Code 33455) is the smallest segment of the Martin County real estate market.  With an inventory of only 12 active condos it’s not surprising to see decreasing market activity in this segment of the market.  All 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.

The absorption rate for August jumped to 14 moths from last months sellers market of 3.2 months.  Back to a strong buyer advantage for those in the Hobe Sound condo market..  Generally, a 6 month absorption rate is considered to be a balanced market favoring neither the seller or buyer.

 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.  There were no sales in August for condos, while the inventory and pending sales moved only by one condo each.

 
The current absorption rate for condos in the 34990 zip code area is not available with zero sales.  A balanced market is considered to be an absorption rate of around 6 months.
 
The August 2012 numbers were: 63 active listings, 6 pending sales and 4 closed sales.   The higher pending numbers this year should indicate some sales in the near future.

A little bit of easing for the market activity in the Palm City, zip code 34990, area of Martin County Florida. The inventory continues to decline and pending sales were off for the second month in a row.  The only bright note was the increased number of closed sales. 
 
The current absorption rate dropped to 4.6 months from 5.5 months in July.  An indication of a strong sellers market for now.  A 6 month absorption rate is typically considered a balanced market that doesn’t favor either sellers or buyers.  With lower inventory and reduced pending sales, I’m expecting an easing of the absorption rate in the coming months.

The August 2012 numbers were:  400 active listings, 161 pending sales and 68 closed sales.   Other than the pending sales numbers, we’re doing considerably better than last year in the Palm City single family market.
