St Lucie County Townhouses and Condos May 2022 Market Report
The St Lucie County Townhouses and Condos market had weaker sales activity when compared to last May. We now face not only unprecedented low inventory levels (which may be about to change soon) but also increasing borrowing costs. I don’t expect much-improved sales activity until these issues start to go away. People can’t buy what doesn’t exist and or can’t afford! Closed sales were down by 34.7% from last year (were down by 30.5% in April). New pending sales were down by 29.5% for April (they were down by 27.3% last month).
Prices are still rising. The median price increased by 18.4% from last year (was up by 9.2% in April) and the average sales price increased by 24.1% (was up by 34.6% in April).
The inventory of available townhouses and condos increased by 14 units from last month to 163 residences. This is 0.6% less inventory than we had in May 2021. The current inventory supply is 1.4 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.
