January 2015 Monthly Market Detail Florida Single Family Homes

The January 2015 Monthly Market Detail Florida Single Family Homes as reported by Florida Realtors indicates continued growth of market activity for the single family real estate market when compared to last January. Closed sales were up by 10% (was up by 15.8% in December) and new sales under contract (new pending sales) increased by 10.5% (was up by 6.4% in December).

Both median and average sales prices continue to rise ( January 2014 to January 2015) by 7.9% and 7.4% respectively, compared to December’s 6.9% and 5.9%.  Once again it seems that prices are poised for some healthy gains as interest rates remain very low making home loans more affordable.

The inventory of available homes for sale rose by 4.4% from last year. This is now a full 16 months of increased inventory.  The rate of inventory increases has declined significantly from previous months and this is an important statistic to watch for the future. For this month there was only a 5.3 months supply of inventory, this is a sellers market with the advantage for sellers. (January of 2014 had a 5.5 month supply)

December 2014 Monthly Market Detail St Lucie County Townhouses and Condos

The December 2014 Monthly Market Detail St Lucie County Townhouses and Condos as reported by Florida Realtors showed very strong sales activity for the final month of 2014. Closed sales were up by 29.8% (was down by 22.5% in November) while new sales under contract (new pending sales) increased by 20.2% (was down by 0.9% in November).

The median sales price was up by 8.3% (down 3.7% in November) and the average sales price decreased by 5.1% (was up by 8.1% in November). Prices for townhouses and condos in the St Lucie County market have been erratic for the past few months. With the improving economy and low interest rates, I expect to see increases in 2015.

The inventory of available townhouses and condos increased by 8 units from last month to 683 properties, which is still down by 22.3% from last December. Current supply of inventory remained unchanged from November at 6.5 months. This is 25.3% lower than last year. The St. Lucie County townhouse and condo market remains in a balanced market.

December 2014 Monthly Market Detail St Lucie County Single Family Homes as reported by Florida Realtors continues to produce year to year improvements. Though, for December the volume of sales increases has declined a little, while prices continue to rise quite strongly.  Closed sales from last year were up by 6.7% (in November they were up by 12.7%) and new sales under contract (new pending sales) increased by 10.5% (they were down by 19.9% last month).

Both median and average sales prices were up again (year to year) by 16.3% and 14.8% respectively from last December (For last month these figures were 11.9% and 5.2%).  Better increases than last month and more than double the state averages.

The current supply of inventory is only 3.6 months (a 29.5% decrease from last year). A strong sellers market for the Saint Lucie County single family home market. This reduced inventory is exerting strong pressure on keeping price increases high.  When and if more inventory comes on line, I expect price increases to moderate considerably.

The November 2014 Monthly Market Detail Florida Single Family Homes as reported by Florida Realtors showed continued improvement for the single family real estate market as compared to last November (2013).  Closed sales were up by 10.7% (was up by 17.8% in October) and new sales under contract (new pending sales) increased by 6.1% (was up by 4.7% in October).

Both median and average sales prices continue to rise ( November 2013 to November 2014) by 3.5% and 3.3% respectively, compared to October’s 4.6% and 6.1%.   We’ve appeared to slow down in the rate of appreciation in the past few months.  This is a good sign as prices will not be forcing as many buyers out of the market.  Historically a 3 to 4% yearly appreciation is very normal for real estate.

The inventory of available homes for sale rose by 2.3% from last year.  This is now a full 14 months of increased inventory.  This increase is a direct result of rising prices as many home sellers have been waiting on the side lines for improved values.  This increase in inventory makes for greater choices and more price competition among sellers. With only a 5.3 months supply of inventory, this is a healthy market with a slight edge to sellers. (November of 2013 had a 5.6 month supply)

Both median and average sales prices continue to rise ( October 2013 to October 2014) by 4.6% and 6.1% respectively, compared to September’s 5.9% and 4%.   Slow and steady appreciation is a sign of a stable and growing real estate market.

The inventory of available homes for sale rose by 4.2% from last year.  This is now a full thirteen months of increased inventory.  This increase is a direct result of rising prices as many home sellers have been waiting on the side lines for improved values.  This increase in inventory makes for greater choices and more price competition among sellers. With only a 5.4 months supply of inventory, this is a healthy market with a slight edge to sellers. (October of 2013 had a 5.5 month supply)
