The Banyan Tree Tunnel in Stuart Florida

Banyan Tree Tunnel in Stuart FL

If you have the pleasure of visiting our fair city sometime in the future, try taking a drive down Saint Lucie Blvd. and going through our famous Banyan Tree Tunnel.  Here’s what it looks like on a bright sunny day. Before the 2004 hurricanes, it was even darker, but we did lose a few branches which opened it up a little.  But in a few years, it will be back to its former splendor.

Did you know that the banyan Tree is native to India?  It was introduced to Florida by Thomas Alva Edison in 1925 when he planted the first one in the US.  It was around 4 feet tall at the time.  This tree is still alive covering over 400 feet, reported as being the third largest Banyan tree in the world.

Condominium Market Report for April 2011 in Martin County, Florida

Corresponding fairly closely to the residential Martin County Market Report, condo sales were off from a year ago as well as from last month.  Possibly due in small measure to the coming end of the season, but not completely as it takes some time for transactions to close, typically from 30 to 60 days.  So, April sales actually represent contracts written in February and March.  Historically, April sales are typically slightly less than March.  Inventory had a small decline and we are back to inventory levels last seen in November of 2005.  Unfortunately, both median and average sales prices are still decreasing.  The one-month absorption rate is back up to 14.8 months for April.

Residential Market Report for April 2011 in Martin County, Florida

Mixed results for April in the Martin County Residential Market Report.  Sales were off considerably from last year (which it’s important to keep in mind were greatly inflated by the government’s first-time home buyer’s tax credit).   Unfortunately, sales were also off a bit from a very strong March of this year (down to 161 homes from a March total of 187).  On the positive side, the inventory is continuing to shrink, now down to 1531 units.  The last time it was at this level was back in November of 2005.  Both median and average sales prices were up for April, reflecting the fact that some higher-end homes are now selling.  The single-month absorption rate increased to 9.51 months (not reflected in my 3-month moving average chart).   It’s still too early to tell if we have actually bottomed out in this market and are holding steady or even seeing some price increases.  I expect June numbers to be off a little as we go into our seasonal cycle.
