St Lucie County Townhouses and Condos August 2022 Market Report
The St Lucie County Townhouses and Condos market had weaker sales activity when compared to last August. 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 28.3% from last year (were down by 34.1% in July). New pending sales were down by 28.1% for July (they were down by 14.2% last month).
Prices are still rising. The median price increased by 27.9% from last year (was up by 20.4% in July) and the average sales price increased by 22.3% (was up by 11.0% in July).
The inventory of available townhouses and condos decreased by 4 units from last month to 228 residences. This is 31.0% greater inventory than we had in August 2021. The current inventory supply is 2.1 months, as compared to 1.2 months of inventory last year. The St Lucie County townhouses and condos real estate market remains in a tight sellers’ market, mainly because of the decrease in inventory. Typically a 6 to 7-month inventory is considered a balanced market showing no advantage to either buyers or sellers.
