The current supply of inventory dropped to 5.1 months, which is less than the 5.4 months of inventory last year.  The St Lucie County townhouses and condos continues to be in a sellers market.

Mariner Sands August 2016 Market Report

July 2016 Monthly Market Detail Florida Single Family Homes

July 2016 Monthly Market Detail Florida Single Family Homes

The July 2016 Monthly Market Detail Florida Single Family Homes had a reduced volume of sales when compared to last July, while prices continue to rise.  Closed sales were down by 8.0% (was up by 0.4% in June) and new sales under contract (new pending sales) were down by 9.6% (was down by 7.7% in June).

Both median and average sales prices continue to rise ( July 2015 to July 2016) by 11.6% and 8.0% respectively, compared to June’s 10.8% and 6.8%.  If the reduced volume of sales continue, I expect that these price rises will moderate considerably and possibly even retreat by next year at this time.

The inventory of available homes for sale fell by 3.3% from last year.  This is another trend that I think may reverse in the near future as more homes may come on the market while fewer sell.  For July there was only a 4.3 months supply of inventory as Florida remains in a sellers market with the advantage for sellers. (July of 2015 had a 4.4 month supply)  A balanced market favoring neither buyers or sellers is considered to be one with a 6 to 7 month supply of inventory.
