Prices continue to show very strong increases.  The median and average sales prices up by 15.7% and 14.9% respectively from last March (For February these numbers were up 18.2% and 16.6%).  While these are very good results for sellers, they make me a little nervous as rates of increase this high may result in lower affordability of homes and subsequently less sales in the future.

Active listings decreased by 74 homes to 1,740 homes.  This inventory is 8.0% lower than last year.  The current supply of homes is at 3.9 months (was 4.1 months for February)  This is 4.9% lower than last year.  The St Lucie County single family home market remains a strong sellers market.  A balanced market is one with a 6 to 7 month supply of inventory.

About the Estuary

The Estuary of Stuart Florida, located in North Stuart, Florida and often mistaken for being a part of Jensen Beach Florida is a gated community with a variety of homes ranging from condos, to 1980’s vintage homes, to newer villas as well as waterfront homes with deep water docks.
The Estuary of Stuart Florida is very conveniently located on the banks of the North Fork of the Saint Lucie River, just minutes from the Treasure Coast Mall and the shopping and dining areas of the US-1 corridor in Jensen Beach.

Different sections of the Estuary include well appointed 2 and 3 bedroom condos with pool and lake views.  A select number of condos have mile wide river views of the Saint Lucie River.  An inland section of varying styles, sizes and shapes of homes built from the early 1980’s and also called River Shores Plantation.  In 2002, a section of the Estuary was added with villas and smaller single family homes on Tillia Trail with their own community pool.  Larger single family homes were also added at this time along Estuary Court, Plumbago Trail and the western section of NW 21’st Terrace.  This section also boasts a community dock suitable for good sized vessels with ocean access just a few minutes away at the Saint Lucie Inlet.   Homes on Plumbago Trail also enjoy spectacular wide water views.  The Estuary is truly a wonderful place to call home.

The single family real estate market in Sewalls Point showed one of the best months in quite some time with increases in closed sales as well as homes under contract.

St Lucie County Single Family Homes February 2017 Market Detail

St Lucie County Single Family Homes February 2017 Market Detail

St Lucie County Single Family Homes Market Detail for February 2017 showed improved sales activity for closed sales but weaker new pending sales year to year.  Closed sales were up by 5.1% (in January they were up by 8.1%) and new sales under contract (new pending sales) decreased by 0.5% (they were up by 8.1% last month).

Prices continued to show strong increases.  The median and average sales prices up by 18.2% and 16.6% respectively from last February (For January these numbers were up 8.9% and 16.1%).  While these are very good results for sellers, they make me a little nervous as rates of increase this high may result in lower affordability of homes and subsequently less sales in the future.

Active listings decreased by 30 homes to 1,814 homes.  This inventory is 0.8% lower than last year.  The current supply of homes is at 4.1 months (also was 4.1 months for February of 2016)  This is unchanged from last year.  The St Lucie County single family home market remains in a strong sellers market.  A balanced market is one with a 6 to 7 month supply of inventory.
