January 2014 Monthly Market Detail Martin County Townhouses and Condos 

January 2014 Monthly Market Detail Martin County Townhouses and Condos report began the year with continued signs of a slowing momentum, but still mostly positive overall results from previous years.   Even though price rises have moderated a bit this month, I’m expecting to see more increases in value until the inventory begins to increase.  Year to year closed sales were up by 4.3% (down by 9% in December) while new sales under contract (new pending sales) decreased by 20.9% (was up 8.1% in December).

January 2014 Monthly Market Detail Martin County Townhouses and Condos

The median sales price increased by 15.2 % (was up a whopping 45% in December) while the average sales price increased by 3.7% (was up 10.4% in December) as compared to January of 2013.

 The inventory of available townhouses and condos has increased by 15 to 638 units from last month, but this is still down from January of 2013 by 19.6%.  Current supply of inventory is 6.4 months (a 29.9% decrease from last year).  The Martin County townhouse and condo market is fairing much better than many other areas of the state.

January 2014 Monthly Market Detail Martin County Single Family Homes

The January 2014 Monthly Market Detail Martin County Single Family Homes as reported by Florida Realtors began 2014 with mostly a positive start.  Only negative was that new pending sales were off by 18.8% from last year (increased by 9.5% in December).  Closed sales were up by 29.9% (was 17.8% in December).

The median sales price was up by 24.7% from last year while the average price dropped by 8.5%.  This is not an indication of rising or lowering values, but rather the mix of homes that have sold this month.   Generaly values are in fact rising at a fairly moderate pace overall, though individual locations will vary.

January 2014 Monthly Market Detail Martin County Single Family Homes

The inventory of available single family homes increased from December 2013 to 1,355 units, and this is an 8.3% increase from last January.  Current supply of inventory is only 6.9 months (a 9.6% decrease from last year).  We continue to be in a balanced market for residential sales in Martin County.  A continues strong market to begin 2014.

January 2014 Monthly Market Detail Florida Townhouses and Condos

For the January 2014 Monthly Market Detail Florida Townhouses and Condos for the state of Florida a mostly positive result to begin the year as compared to the start of 2013.   Though more positive results than they were for last month.   Year to year closed sales were up by 9.3% as compared to last months decrease of 2.5% and new sales under contract (new pending sales) decreased by 6% (December’s decrease was 8.7%).

January 2014 Monthly Market Detail Florida Townhouses and Condos 

Both median and average sales prices were up (year to year) by 17% and 21% respectively.  Very significant gains.

Inventory rose for the third month in a row, by 3.5%.  If the inventory keeps rising, I expect to see some increases in the sales volume and a leveling off or a moderation to the pretty dramatic price increases we’ve experienced last year.

January 2014 Monthly Market Detail Florida Single Family Homes

The January 2014 Monthly Market Detail Florida Single Family Homes as reported by Florida Realtors began 2014 with all positive results as compared to the start of 2013.  Both closed and pending sales were up.   Year to year closed sales were up by 10.2% (was up by 8.6% in December) and new sales under contract (new pending sales) increased by 0.7% (was down by4.2% in December).

January 2014 Monthly Market Detail Florida Single Family Homes

Both median and average sales prices were up ( January 2013 to January 2014) by 12.1% and 19.9% respectively.   Very good results compared to the past few months when values increased, but at a much slower rate.

The inventory of available homes for sale increased by 15% from last year.  This is now the fourth month 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.  We do need to watch that inventory levels don’t rise so much as to have a negative effect on prices (law of supply and demand).  It does appear that even with the increasing inventory the traffic for the new year is quite high and I expect some strong results for next month.

Martin County Condo Sales Report December 2013

02.05.14 by

Martin County Condo Sales Report December 2013

 Commentary:

The Martin County Florida Condo Sales report for December 2013 ended the year with some modestly positive gains.  Closed sales for December were up to 69 units as compared to 54 for December of 2012 and 47 for last month.  The median price made a big jump to $165,000 as compared to last year’s $100,950 and last month’s $125,000.  Inventory decreased for the first time in three months, and we continue to have fewer condos available for sale as compared to 2012.

The one month absorption rate dropped to 8.07 months from last months 11.91 months, while the three-month average is now at 9.73 months (compared to last year’s 12.06).  The condo market for Martin County continues to be a buyers market though the numbers continue to improve.  Generally an absorption rate of 6 or 7 months is considered a balanced market.

Considering that December is typically a weak month for the condo market, we did very well for the close of 2013.

December 2013 Monthly Market Detail St Lucie County Townhouses and Condos

Unfortunately the December 2013 Monthly Market Detail St Lucie County Townhouses and Condos as reported by Florida Realtors showed another month of decreasing sales volume as compared to last year.  This is now four months in a row.  This is one of the most under performing sectors in the Treasure Coast and Florida in general for volume.   Year to year closed sales were down by 19.4% (was down by 17.5% in November) while new sales under contract (new pending sales) decreased by 29.1% (was  down by 5.4% in November

Though values were considerably higher this year with the median sales price up by 37.1% (up 40% in November) and the average sales price rose by 38.8% (was up by 31.4% in November).

December 2013 Monthly Market Detail St Lucie County Townhouses and Condos

The inventory of available townhouses and condos decreased from last month to 841 units which is a decrease of 11.1% from last December.  Current supply of inventory remained unchanged from last month to 8.8 months (still an 8.3% decrease from last year).   Unfortunately the low inventory along with the rapid increase in values is hurting the volume of condo and townhouse sales in St. Lucie County.  Once inventory starts to rise, I expect the volume to pick up as well.

The December 2013 Monthly Market Detail Florida Single Family Homes as reported by Florida Realtors ended the year with mostly positive results as compared to 2012.  Both closed and pending sales were off.   Year to year closed sales were up by 8.6% (was down by 1.2 % in November) and new sales under contract (new pending sales) decreased by 4.2% (was down by 5.9% in October).

Both median and average sales prices were up (December 2012 to December 2013) by 11.4% and 3% respectively.   Not quite as much of an increase as in previous months this year, but those kinds of increases were unsustainable.

The inventory of available homes for sale increased by 11.9% from last year.  This is now the third month of increased inventory.  I’ve written in the past that I was expecting this increase which is a direct cause of the easing of the price increases as the supply expands.  It does appear that even with the increasing inventory the traffic for the new year is quite high and I expect some strong results for next month.

Martin County Condo Sales Report for November 2013

01.02.14 by

Martin County Condo Sales Report for November 2013

 Commentary:

The Martin County Florida Condo Sales report for November 2013 showed some weakness, much like the Martin County Homes sales report.  Closed sales for November were unchanged from November of 2012 and were lower than last month.  The median price rose respectably from last month and was unchanged from last year.  Inventory rose for the third month in a row, yet still fewer condos available for sale from last year.

The one month absorption rate increased to 11.91 months from last months 9.93 months, while the three-month average is now at 10.57 months.  The condo market for Martin County continues to be a buyers market.  Generally an absorption rate of 6 or 7 months is considered a balanced market.

Weakness for the condo market is not that unusual for this time of the year.  The coming season should prove interesting as this segment has been fairly flat for the past few years, even though the numbers have risen somewhat.

 Commentary:

The Martin County Home Sales Report for November 2013 is showing mixed results.  Closed sales were down from last months 161 homes and also from last years 169 homes to 147 homes sold in November.  The average and median sales prices were up from last year but slightly down from last month.

The one month absorption rate for November 2013 increased to 7.92 months (from 6.86 months in October), and the three-month average is now 6.86 months.  A 6 to 7 month absorption rate is considered to be a balanced market.  Drifting back into a buyers market for the short term at least for residential sales in Martin County.

 The inventory of available townhouses and condos has increased to 624 units from last month, still under November 2012 inventory by 15.8%.  Current supply of inventory is 6.2 months (a 27.5% decrease from last year).  After several months of a seller’s market we are transitioning into a balanced market once again.  A balanced market is a healthy sign if it continues through the year.

November 2013 Monthly Market Detail Florida Townhouses and Condos

The November 2013 Monthly Market Detail Florida Townhouses and Condos for the state of Florida showed a weakening of both closed and pending sales as compared to last year.  Year to year closed sales were down by 7.1% as compared to last months increase of 3.1% and new sales under contract (new pending sales) decreased by 10.2% (October’s decrease was 3.6%).

November 2013 Florida Condo and Townhouse

Both median and average sales prices were up (year to year) by 17.2% and 12.3% respectively.

For the first time in a while the inventory crept up slightly by 1.3%.  The reduced inventory is what is making prices rise as well as keeping sales volume down.  I expect both inventory and sales volume to increase in the coming year if the economic news continues to be positive.

November 2013 Monthly Market Detail Florida Single Family Homes

The Florida real estate market showed some weakness for the November 2013 Monthly Market Detail Florida Single Family Homes as reported by Florida Realtors.  Both closed and pending sales were off.   Year to year closed sales were down by 1.2% (were up by 6.5 % in October) and new sales under contract (new pending sales) decreased by 5.9% (was up by 3.4% in October).

Both median and average sales prices were up (November 2012 to November 2013) by 13.3% and 7.1% respectively.   Not quite as much of an increase as in previous months this year, but those kinds of increases were unsustainable.

The inventory of available homes for sale increased by 10% from last year.  This is now the second month of increased inventory.  I’ve written in the past that I was expecting this increase which is a direct cause of the easing of the price increases as the supply expands. I would like to see the volume of closed sales be higher and with the current excellent economic news, I expect these numbers to go up soon.
