July 2014 Monthly Market Detail Martin County Townhouses and Condos

July 2014 Monthly Market Detail Martin County Townhouses and Condos was basically flat in terms of activity as compared to last year.  Year to year closed sales were unchanged (was up by 11.5% in June) as well as new sales under contract (new pending sales) also unchanged from July 2013 (was down 19.4% in June). 

The median sales price decreased by 10.5% (was up by 3.1% in June) while the average sales price decreased by 7.4% (was down 4.9% in June) as compared to July of 2013.  After nearly a year of pretty impressive price rises, values were off for the third month in a row indicating some weakness in this sector of the Martin County real estate market.

July 2014 Monthly Market Detail Florida Townhouses and Condos

For the July 2014 Monthly Market Detail Florida Townhouses and Condos for the state of Florida showed less activity as compared to last year as well as last month.  Year to year closed sales were off by 6.7% as compared to last months increase of 3.1% and new sales under contract (new pending sales) decreased by 13.9% (June’s decrease was 9%).

Both median and average sales prices were up (year to year) by 7.4% and 2.6% respectively (in June it was 8.5% and 5.8%). Prices rose very rapidly last year and continue to go up this year at a reduced pace.  One reason for the reduced activity is the fact that these properties are considerably more expensive than they have been in the recent past.

Inventory rose for the tenth month in a row, by 10.9% (was up by 13.4% in June).  While the July 2014 numbers show a marked decrease in activity levels this is still a seller’s market as there is currently a 5.7 months supply of inventory (was 5.8 months in June) which is up 11.2% from last year.  A 6 months inventory supply is considered a balanced market.

June 2014 Monthly Market Detail St Lucie County Townhouses and Condos

The June 2014 Monthly Market Detail St Lucie County Townhouses and Condos as reported by Florida Realtors has shown a second strong month after a somewhat difficult spring season.  Closed sales were up by 15.5% (was up by 24.6% in May) while new sales under contract (new pending sales) increased by 6% (was  down by 13.6% in May).  Nice to see both trends in a positive direction.

The median sales price was down by 4.6% (up 1.2% in May) and the average sales price decreased by 1.8% (was down by 1.3% in May).  This is now the third month of either decreasing values or just holding steady.  While many would like to see values continue to rise, buyers are hoping for the opposite.

The inventory of available townhouses and condos decreased by 59 units from last month to 756 units which is down by 7% from last June.  Current supply of inventory decreased to 7.2 months from the 7.8 month supply in May and is 9.2% lower than last year.  The St. Lucie County townhouse and condo market appears to be strengthening for now, though the reduction in inventory is troubling for future volume.June 2014 Monthly Market Detail St Lucie County Townhouses and Condos

June 2014 Monthly Market Detail Martin County Townhouses and Condos

June 2014 Monthly Market Detail Martin County Townhouses and Condos showed strong market movement with a more moderate rate of price changes as compared to the recent past.  Year to year closed sales were up by 11.5% (was up by 0.8% in May) while new sales under contract (new pending sales) decreased by 19.4% from June 2013 (was down 20.8% in May).  The decrease in pending sales June be an indication of some future weakness in this market.

The median sales price increased by 3.1% (was down by 1.0% in May) while the average sales price decreased by 4.9% (was down 19.3% in May) as compared to June of 2013.  After nearly a year of pretty impressive price rises, values were off for the second month in a row.

 The inventory of available townhouses and condos has decreased by 7 to 558 units from last month which is also 1.8% less inventory than was available in June of 2013.  I continue to be surprised that inventory levels are still so low, considering that values have increased over 20% in the past year.  The current supply of inventory is 5.6 months (an 4% decrease from last year).  While still strong activity in this seller’s market, I’m a bit concerned over the decrease in both inventory and pending sales.

June 2014 Monthly Market Detail Florida Townhouses and Condos

For the June 2014 Monthly Market Detail Florida Townhouses and Condos for the state of Florida, activity has decreased from last years hot pace but has improved from last month.  Year to year closed sales were up by 3.1% as compared to last months decrease of 7% and new sales under contract (new pending sales) decreased by 9% (May’s decrease was 13.4%).

Both median and average sales prices were up (year to year) by 8.5% and 5.8% respectively (in May it was 13.7% and 12.7%). Moderating price increases have been anticipated by me as the inventory rises and the sales activity cools a bit.

Inventory rose for the ninth month in a row, by 13.4% (was up by 11.3% in May).  While the June 2014 numbers are not as robust as those of last year, this continues to be an active market with a 5.8 month supply of inventory (was 6 months in May) which is up 11.4% from last year.  Currently a slight advantage to sellers.

The median sales price was up by 1.2% (down 34.1% in April) and the average sales price decreased by 1.3% (was down by 2.3% in April).  Last month was the first decrease in values in over a year.  A nice rebound this month.  It will be interesting to note if this trend continues.

May 2014 Monthly Market Detail Martin County Townhouses and Condos continues with reduced activity from last year, though still an active market, currently with a slight sellers advantage.  Year to year closed sales were up by 0.8% (was down by 12.2% in April) while new sales under contract (new pending sales) decreased by 20.8% from May 2013 (was unchanged in April).  The decrease in pending sales may be an indication of some future weakness in this market.

 The inventory of available townhouses and condos has decreased by 14 to 565 units from last month which is also 7.7% less inventory than was available in May of 2013.  With values having gone up as much as they have, I would have expected higher inventory levels.  The current supply of inventory is 5.7 months (an 8.5% decrease from last year).  While a very strong month, I’m a bit concerned over the decrease in both inventory and pending sales.

May 2014 Monthly Market Detail Florida Townhouses and Condos

For the May 2014 Monthly Market Detail Florida Townhouses and Condos for the state of Florida, activity has decreased from last years hot pace.  Year to year closed sales were down by 7% as compared to last months decrease of 5.1% and new sales under contract (new pending sales) decreased by 13.4% (April’s decrease was 11%).

Both median and average sales prices were up (year to year) by 13.7% and 12.7% respectively (in April it was 9.8% and 10.6%). Continued strong price gains.  This is a bit surprising since the market does appear to be cooling somewhat, though for may it continues to be active and a balanced market.

Inventory rose for the eighth month in a row, by 11.3% (was up by 9.3 in April).  The rising inventory should eventually produce some pressure to moderate the rising prices.  Hopefully, this will help continue the strong momentum for sales activity.  The current 6 month supply of inventory is a good sign that we are in a balanced market.

April 2014 Monthly Market Detail St Lucie County Townhouses and Condos

The April 2014 Monthly Market Detail St Lucie County Townhouses and Condos as reported by Florida Realtors is a segment of the market that is not doing well this year. Most measured values are showing declines year to year.  Closed sales were down by 5.9% (was down by 21.3% in March) while new sales under contract (new pending sales) decreased by 4.6% (was  down by 9.9% in March).  The decrease in pending sales is much less than last month which is at least a small positive.

The median sales price was down by 34.1% (up 21.1% in March) and the average sales price decreased by 2.3% (was up by 7.4% in March).  This is the first month we’ve seen a decrease in values.  Lack of supply and demand are both factors for this as was the torrid price rises from last year.

The inventory of available townhouses and condos decreased by 48 units from last month to 856 units which is down by 5.3% from last April.  Current supply of inventory decrease to 8.4 months from the 9.6 month supply in March and is 4.5% lower from last year.   This is a buyers market at present.

April 2014 Monthly Market Detail Martin County Townhouses and Condos continues with reduced activity from last year, though still in a healthy range with a balanced blend of supply and demand.  Year to year closed sales were down by 12.2% (was down by 29.9% in March) while new sales under contract (new pending sales) was unchanged from April 2013 (was down 9% in March).

 The inventory of available townhouses and condos has decreased by 17 to 579 units from last month which is also 10.2% less inventory than was available in April of 2013.  With values going up as much as they have, I would have expected higher inventory levels.  The current supply of inventory is 5.8 months (a 13.1% decrease from last year).   Though down in volume from last year, this is still a balanced market that favors neither the buyer nor the seller.

April 2014 Monthly Market Detail Florida Townhouses and Condos

For the April 2014 Monthly Market Detail Florida Townhouses and Condos for the state of Florida the rate of activity has slowed some, but is now a much healthier market than last years super heated activity.  Year to year closed sales were down by 5.1% as compared to last months decrease of 5.2% and new sales under contract (new pending sales) decreased by 11% (March’s decrease was 6.2%).

Both median and average sales prices were up (year to year) by 9.8% and 10.6% respectively (in March it was 16.7% and 16.1%). These strong price appreciations is what I suspect is the cause of the decrease in market activity for condos and townhouses in Florida for April, though it is a strong balanced market at this time.

Inventory rose for the seventh month in a row, by 9.3%.  The rising inventory is producing some pressure to moderate the price increases.  This should help continue a strong momentum for sales activity.  The 6 month supply of inventory is a good sign that we are in a balanced market.

March 2014 Monthly Market Detail St Lucie County Townhouses and Condos

The March 2014 Monthly Market Detail St Lucie County Townhouses and Condos as reported by Florida Realtors showed a continuing trend of disappointing results for volume of sales after a good start to the year in January.  Year to year closed sales were down by 21.3% (was down by 8.2% in February) while new sales under contract (new pending sales) decreased by 9.9% (was  down by 28.2% in February).  The decrease in pending sales is much less than last month which is at least a small positive.  Much of this decrease can be attributed to a decrease in inventory from last year as well as the rapidly increasing prices.

The median sales price up by 21.1% (up 15% in February) and the average sales price increased by 7.4% (was up by 14.4% in February).

The inventory of available townhouses and condos decreased by 6 units from last month to 895 units which is still down by 13.1% from last March.  Current supply of inventory remained inched up from last month to 9.6 months (a 0.3% increase from last year).   This is a buyers market at present and will most likely continue until inventory increases and price rises moderate to a more sustainable rate.

March 2014 Monthly Market Detail Martin County Townhouses and Condos

March 2014 Monthly Market Detail Martin County Townhouses and Condos report showed continued disappointing results as to both last year and the past few months.  Year to year closed sales were down by 29.9% (was down by 1% in February) while new sales under contract (new pending sales) decreased by 9% (was down 27% in February).

The median sales price increased by 7.4% (was up by 17.6% in February) while the average sales price decreased by 11% (was up 20.6% in February) as compared to March of 2013.  As the price increases moderate, I would expect to see some increased volume of closed and pending sales for the future.

 The inventory of available townhouses and condos has decreased by 39 to 596 units from last month which is 13.2% less inventory than was available in March of 2013.  With values going up as much as they have, I would have expected higher inventory levels.  The current supply of inventory is 6.2 months (a 16.5% decrease from last year).   Though down in volume from last year, this is still a balanced market that favors neither the buyer nor the seller.

March 2014 Monthly Market Detail Florida Townhouses and Condos

For the March 2014 Monthly Market Detail Florida Townhouses and Condos for the state of Florida continues to struggle in volume as the prices have soared. It appears that the prices have risen much to fast for consumer demand to keep up.  Year to year closed sales were down by 5.2% as compared to last months decrease of 6.8% and new sales under contract (new pending sales) decreased by 6.2% (February’s decrease was 14.5%).

Both median and average sales prices were up (year to year) by 16.7% and 16.1% respectively (in February it was 15.2% and 13.9%). These strong price appreciations is what I suspect is the cause of the decrease in market activity for condos and townhouses in Florida for March.

Inventory rose for the fifth month in a row, by 7%.  The rising inventory should produce some pressure to moderate the price increases.  This should help regain the momentum of sales.  The 6 month supply of inventory is a good sign that we are in a balanced market.

February 2014 Monthly Market Detail St Lucie County Townhouses and Condos

The February 2014 Monthly Market Detail St Lucie County Townhouses and Condos as reported by Florida Realtors once again showed some disappointing results after a good start to the year in January.  Year to year closed sales were down by 8.2% (was up by 12.3% in January) while new sales under contract (new pending sales) decreased by 28.2% (was  down by 9.1% in January).  This decreased volume is concerning.  Most of it, I suspect, is from the rapid price increases this past year, though with this month, this appears to be easing as well.

The median sales price up by 15% (up 4.3% in January) and the average sales price dropped by 14.4% (was up by an impressive 45.2% in January).

The inventory of available townhouses and condos decreased by 10 units from last month to 901 units which is still down by 8.1% from last February.  Current supply of inventory remained unchanged from last month to 9.4 months (still an 4.6% decrease from last year).   This is a buyers market at present and the lower prices will most likely continue until inventory and closed sales pick up.

February 2014 Monthly Market Detail Martin County Townhouses and Condos

February 2014 Monthly Market Detail Martin County Townhouses and Condos report showed some disappointing results as to volume of activity, though prices continued to soar.  Year to year closed sales were down by 1% (was up by 4.3% in January) while new sales under contract (new pending sales) decreased by 27% (was down 20.9% in January).

The median sales price increased by 17.6% (was up by 15.2% in January) while the average sales price increased by 20.6% (was up 15.2% in January) as compared to February of 2013.  These large price increases are most likely responsible for the drop in volume as many buyers are simply being priced out of the market.

 The inventory of available townhouses and condos has decreased by 3 to 635 units from last month which is 15% less inventory than was available in February of 2013.  With values going up as much as they have, I would have expected higher inventory levels.  The current supply of inventory is 6.4 months (a 24.4% decrease from last year).

February 2014 Monthly Market Detail Florida Townhouses and Condos

For the February 2014 Monthly Market Detail Florida Townhouses and Condos for the state of Florida activity slowed considerably as compared to last year.  Hopefully, this is just a one month issue.   Year to year closed sales were down by 6.8% as compared to last months increase of 9.3% and new sales under contract (new pending sales) decreased by 14.5% (January’s decrease was 6%). 

Both median and average sales prices were up (year to year) by 15.2% and 13.9% respectively (in January it was 17% and 21%).  I suspect that these very strong price gains are what is now slowing the sales activity as many buyers are simply being priced out of the market.

Inventory rose for the fourth month in a row, by 3.7%.  The rising inventory should produce some pressure to moderate the price increases.  This should help regain the momentum of sales.
