Martin County Florida Condo Market Report for September 2012

Martin County Florida Condo Market Report for September 2012

 

Commentary:

The Martin County Florida Condo Market for September 2012 was fairly slow.  Though this is typical for our seasonal condo market, we were hoping for a little better activity.  Sales for September were down to 39 units from 46 in August.  Just about identical to September 2011 which had 40 sales.  The inventory was down by 10 units and is basically holding steady as last year at this time it was 623 condos available for sale.  I would not be surprised to see more inventory growth as we get into the upcoming  fall and winter condo season.  The median sales price took a big jump in September as some fairly high priced condos were sold last month. (Up to $159,000 from just $97,000 for August)

The one month absorption rate is up to 14.6 months, while the three-month average is at 12.1 months.  Still a very challenging market for sellers with the accompanying 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.

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 September 2012

Martin County Florida Residential Market Report for September 2012

 

Commentary:

The Martin County Florida residential market report for September 2012 showed our typical season slowdown. The sales volume of 133 homes is still 16 homes better than 2011 and 18 homes better than 2010, but not quite as robust as our earlier numbers this year.  But, still good numbers when considering our available homes (inventory) is considerably reduced from the previous years.

Average and median sales prices too a huge dip in September.  This is more an indication that the homes selling this month tended to be in the lower price range rather than a further softening of existing home prices.

This months inventory showed a continued decrease (after a slight increase last month) to 1135 units (down 12 homes from last month), still down from the 1365 homes that were on the market in September of 2011 (and the 2789 homes in September of 2007). The one month absorption rate for September is 8.5 months, while the three-month average is 7.3 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.

Office activity is very good and I believe we will be back to some positive market results in the upcoming season.

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

[singlepic id=2904 w=600 h=600 float=center]

[singlepic id=2905 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.  September showed very little change from last month.  Only an increase of 2 condos in inventory with both pending and closed sales remaining unchanged from August.

The one month absorption rate is 14 months, signifying that it’s still a buyers market.  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 September 2011 numbers were:  38 active listings, 6 pending sales and 0 closed sales.  Other than a significantly lower inventory, very similar results.

[singlepic id=2856 w=600 h=600 float=center]

The Hobe Sound Florida residential real estate market activity has seen some inventory gains in the past two months.  This is the only segment of the Martin County real estate market showing an inventory increase of this magnitude.  Pending sales were also up for September while closed sales were off quite a bit.  This is most likely due to the slow summer seasonal influence more than any significant market changes.

The current absorption rate for the Hobe Sound Florida Market Report ZIP Code 33455 stands at 21 months. For September 2012 this is still a strong buyers market for Hobe Sound.  An absorption rate of 6 months is considered to be a balanced market favoring neither the buyer or seller.

The numbers for September 2011 were:  348 active listings, 48 pending sales and 21 closed sales.   Marginally better numbers this year than last.

Jensen Beach Real Estate Snapshot for ZIP Code 34957, Condo Sales for September 2012

For September 2012 in the 34957 Zip Code area of Jensen Beach, Florida (Martin County) :

There are currently 48 active listings. ( A decrease of 2 condos from August)

30 Condo sales are pending and awaiting close or lender approval. (Up 3 condos from August)

3 Condo Sold (Down 1 from August)

The Jensen Beach Condo market (zip code 34957) is a fairly small segment of the Martin County condo market. The current inventory is now very low at only 48 condos available for sale. This might be an excellent time for those who have a need to sell their Jensen Beach condo in zip code 34957.  Pending sales were up marginally and closed sales fell for September by 1 unit. Considering that this is the summer season where the condo market activity is normally slow, this segment continues with good activity.

The one month absorption rate for the September 2012, Jensen Beach Florida Market Report ZIP Code 34957 stands at a very unimpressive 16 months.  Still a strong buyers market, but there just isn’t very much quality inventory.  I’m expecting this to change when some of the pending sales close.

The September 2011 numbers were: 55 active listings, 10 pending sales and 8 condos closed.  Very similar to this years numbers, but better closed activity last year.

For the Palm City, zip code 34990, area of Martin County Florida activity slowed in September after a super spring.  Closed sales were off by a significant amount (50%).  However, pending sales were up showing some good potential for the fall.  The inventory of available homes for sale increased marginally, but still remain at levels lower than they’ve been in quite a few years.  The market activity remains active, much more so than in the past few years.

The current absorption rate shot up to just over 12 months, which is considered to be a buyers market.  A 6 month absorption rate is typically considered a balanced market that doesn’t favor either sellers or buyers.  Much of these numbers are a reflection of the slower activity which is typical for our area in the summer months.

Stuart Florida Real Estate Snapshot for ZIP Code 34997, Residential Sales for September 2012

There are currently 365 active listings (an increase of 33 homes from August).

178 Residential sales are pending and awaiting close or lender approval (A decrease of 17 homes from August).

50 Homes Sold in August (Down 32 homes from August)

After a really good August for the 34997 zip code area of Stuart Florida, numbers were off for September.  A significant jump in inventory, possibly signalling more homes coming on the market for the season as some recent good market news may have some sellers that have delayed their sales decision coming back on the market.  Unfortunately, both pending and closed sales were off.  Possibly this is more a reflection of the off season as opposed to a waning demand.

The current one month absorption rate is just over 7 months, which indicates that we’ve slipped into a buyers market (compared to last month’s 4 month absorption rate)..   Typically a balanced market, favoring neither the seller or buyer, is represented by a 6 month absorption rate.
The 2011 numbers were: 503 active listings, 181 pending listings and 60 closed sales.

Stuart Real Estate Snapshot for ZIP Code 34996, Condo Sales for September 2012

For September 2012 in the 34996 Zip Code area of Stuart, Florida :

There are currently 198 active condo listings (Up 8 from last month).

28 Condo sales are pending and awaiting close or lender approval (an increase of 9 condos from August).

8 Condos Sold in September (Down 4 from August)

The Stuart Florida Market Report ZIP Code 34996 for Condos showed its first increase in inventory in some time.  Future sales (pending listings) took a nice jump up to 28 condos while sales were off to only 8 sold condos.  Not an unexpected number considering we are in the off season for condo sales.

The current absorption rate for the Stuart Florida Market Report ZIP Code 34996 – Condo is just under 24 months.  Not a very good number for sellers, but a great opportunity for buyers.  I expect this absorption rate to decrease in the coming months if the strong pending numbers hold up.

The numbers for September 2011 were: 188 active listings, 27 pending sales and 18 closed sales.  Very similar numbers to the current market.
