Palm City FL 34990 Residential Market Report August 2015

After a very strong July, the Palm City FL 34990 residential real estate market continues to show strong sales activity while the inventory of available homes for sale continues to decrease.  Prices continue their steady march higher so we’ll see if this is enough of an incentive to make potential sellers put their homes on the market in the coming months.  Though, I don’t anticipate any large movement until the end of the holiday season.
 The current absorption rate decreased slightly to to 4.8  months from 5.1 months in July.  Still a sellers’ market for the Palm City zip code 34990 area for residential sales.  A 6 to 7 month absorption rate is typically considered a balanced market that doesn’t favor either sellers or buyers.

The August 2014 numbers were:  436 active listings, 145 pending sales and 76 closed sales.  Considering how much smaller inventory there is this year as compared to last, our market activity is better overall than it was in 2014.

Both median and average sales prices continue strong gains with increases of 20.1% and 17.3% respectively from last July (For June these numbers were 18.6% and 18.9%).  These price increases, while good news for sellers, are making single family homes less affordable in the St. Lucie County market area and June be one factor in the reduced volume of closed sales.

The inventory of active listings increased in July (from last month) by 22 homes to 1,594, and this is  lower than last year’s inventory by 16.7%.  The current supply of inventory is only 3.4 months (a 20.1% decrease from last year). The Saint Lucie County single family home market remains in a very strong sellers market.  We are seeing a reduction in volume of sales because either there isn’t enough inventory available on the market or prices are becoming to high.  Though this month’s increase in inventory is a promising sign.

July 2015 Monthly Market Detail Florida Townhouses and Condos

The July 2015 Monthly Market Detail Florida Townhouses and Condos continues to show improved activity as compared to last July.  Closed sales were up by 13.9% as compared to last months increase of 14.6% and new sales under contract (new pending sales) increased by 4.7% (In June there was a 2.7% increase).

Both median and average sales prices continue to increase, with rises of (year to year) 9.1% and 4.3% respectively (in June they were up by 7.9% and 3.1%).  As sales volume decreases, I expect to see some moderation in the coming months for price increases.

The inventory decreased by 2% from July of last year.  For July 2015 we have 5.3 months of inventory (was 5.5 months in June) also was 5.7 from last July.  A slight sellers market for now, as a 6 months inventory supply is considered a balanced market.
