March 2016 Monthly Market Detail Florida Townhouses and Condos

The March 2016 Monthly Market Detail Florida Townhouses and Condos is now in a balanced market and not the super heated activity as we have experienced for the past two years.  Closed sales were down by 7.1% as compared to last months decrease of 5.4% and new sales under contract (new pending sales) decreased by 10.1% (In February there was a 10.5% decrease).  While on the single family side of the Florida real estate market this decrease in volume can be attributed to inventory, for condos and townhouses it appears to be strictly price related as the inventory has been gaining in the past few months.

The median sales price continued to rise, by 3.3% (up by 5.6% in February), while the average sales price decreased by 3.9% (was down 1.4% in February).  It appears that prices may not continue to rise very rapidly for this segment of the Florida real estate market.

The inventory increased by 6.7% from March of last year.  For March 2016 we have 6.3 months of inventory (was also 6.3 months in February) and compared to 6.0 for March 2015.  First time in two years that we are seeing an increase in inventory as well as being out of a sellers market.

March 2016 Monthly Market Detail Florida Single Family Homes

The March 2016 Monthly Market Detail Florida Single Family Homes continues to do well, though not as robust as last year.  Closed sales were down by 0.6% (was up by 0.4% in February) and new sales under contract (new pending sales) were down by 6.3% (was down by 3.6% in February).  The main reason fo the slowdown in sales is the shrinking inventory of available homes, though price increases in the past few years haven’t helped either.

Both median and average sales prices continue to rise ( March 2015 to March 2016) by 10.3% and 4.9% respectively, compared to February’s 11.1% and 9.2%.  Continuing a trend that has been ongoing for close to three years now.

The inventory of available homes for sale fell by 2.8% from last year.  Higher demand areas of Florida have seen decreasing inventory for more than two years.  For March there was only a 4.5 months supply of inventory, Florida remains in a sellers market with the advantage for sellers. (March of 2015 had a 5.0 month supply)

(January of 2015 had a 5.3 month supply)
