The Stuart Florida Market Report ZIP Code 34996 for Condos showed its first increase in inventory in some time.  Future sales (pending listings) took a nice jump up to 28 condos while sales were off to only 8 sold condos.  Not an unexpected number considering we are in the off season for condo sales.

The current absorption rate for the Stuart Florida Market Report ZIP Code 34996 – Condo is just under 24 months.  Not a very good number for sellers, but a great opportunity for buyers.  I expect this absorption rate to decrease in the coming months if the strong pending numbers hold up.

The numbers for September 2011 were: 188 active listings, 27 pending sales and 18 closed sales.  Very similar numbers to the current market.
