Hobe Sound FL 33455 Condo Market Report April 2015

The Hobe Sound condo market (Zip Code 33455) is the smallest segment of the Martin County real estate market.  As we deplete the pending inventory with closed sales, this will continue to be a difficult segment of the Martin County condo market until we get more inventory of available condos.

The current absorption rate is 2 months (Last month it was 2 months also). The statistics within this segment should be taken with a grain of salt, as small changes in activity make for very large changes on percentages that April not indicate a true trend in the market. An absorption rate of 6 to 7 months is considered to be a balanced market favoring neither the buyer or seller.

The April 2014 numbers were: 21 active listings, 6 pending sales and 5 closed sales.  Similar closed sales activity to last year, but with less than half the available inventory, pending sales are down and I expect to see much reduced activity in the coming months without an increase in inventory.
