St Lucie County Single Family Homes September 2022 Market Report
The September 2022 St Lucie County Single Family Home market had weaker activity when compared to last year. While the historically low inventory is slowly improving (though still low), we are also facing rising interest rates and higher prices. I expect inventory to continue to increase which will exert downward pressure on prices and hopefully an increase in sales. Though, this will take some time. Closed sales were down by 18.7% for the month compared to last year (in August they were up by 22.4%). New sales under contract (new pending sales) decreased by 32.3% (they were down by 21.6% last month).
Prices were also up in September. The median sales price was up by 19.0% (was up by 22.7% in August). The average sales price was up by 16.0% (it was up by 27.5% in August).
The number of available home listings increased by 14 homes to 1681. This inventory is 131.2% greater than last year. The current supply of homes is 2.8 months (it was 1.2 months last year). The St Lucie County single-family home market remains an extreme sellers’ market. A balanced market is one with a 6 to 7 month supply of inventory.
