May 2013 Monthly Market Detail Florida Single Family Homes
Another positive month of results reported by Florida Realtors for the May 2013 Monthly Market Detail Florida Single Family Homes for the entire state of Florida. All indices have moved in a positive direction. Year to year closed sales were up by 18.7% and new sales under contract (new pending sales) increased by 30.8%.
Both median and average sales prices were up (May 2012 to May 2013) by 15.9% and 11.4% respectively.
One item of concern is the active inventory which has decreased by 23.7%. 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.
