January 2014 Monthly Market Detail St Lucie County Townhouses and Condos

The January 2014 Monthly Market Detail St Lucie County Townhouses and Condos as reported by Florida Realtors had a very positive start to 2014 after a number of disappointing last four months of 2013 for the townhouse and condo segment of the Saint Lucie County real estate market.  Year to year closed sales were up by 12.3% (was down by 19.4% in December) while new sales under contract (new pending sales) decreased by 9.1% (was  down by 29.1% in December).

Values continue to rise as the median sales price up by 4.3% (up 37.1% in December) and the average sales price rose by 45.2% (was up by 38.8% in December).

January 2014 Monthly Market Detail St Lucie County Townhouses and Condos

The inventory of available townhouses and condos increased from last month to 911 units which is still down by 6.5% from last January.  Current supply of inventory remained unchanged from last month to 9.4 months (still an 8.8% decrease from last year).   Back into a buyer’s market.  Unfortunately the low inventory along with the rapid increase in values is hurting the volume of condo and townhouse sales in St. Lucie County.  Once inventory starts to rise, I expect the volume to pick up as well.

The January 2014 Monthly Market Detail Florida Single Family Homes as reported by Florida Realtors began 2014 with all positive results as compared to the start of 2013.  Both closed and pending sales were up.   Year to year closed sales were up by 10.2% (was up by 8.6% in December) and new sales under contract (new pending sales) increased by 0.7% (was down by4.2% in December).

January 2014 Monthly Market Detail Florida Single Family Homes

Both median and average sales prices were up ( January 2013 to January 2014) by 12.1% and 19.9% respectively.   Very good results compared to the past few months when values increased, but at a much slower rate.

The inventory of available homes for sale increased by 15% from last year.  This is now the fourth month of increased inventory.  This increase is a direct result of rising prices as many home sellers have been waiting on the side lines for improved values.  We do need to watch that inventory levels don’t rise so much as to have a negative effect on prices (law of supply and demand).  It does appear that even with the increasing inventory the traffic for the new year is quite high and I expect some strong results for next month.

The inventory of available homes for sale increased by 11.9% from last year.  This is now the third month of increased inventory.  I’ve written in the past that I was expecting this increase which is a direct cause of the easing of the price increases as the supply expands.  It does appear that even with the increasing inventory the traffic for the new year is quite high and I expect some strong results for next month.

November 2013 Monthly Market Detail Florida Townhouses and Condos

The November 2013 Monthly Market Detail Florida Townhouses and Condos for the state of Florida showed a weakening of both closed and pending sales as compared to last year.  Year to year closed sales were down by 7.1% as compared to last months increase of 3.1% and new sales under contract (new pending sales) decreased by 10.2% (October’s decrease was 3.6%).

November 2013 Florida Condo and Townhouse

Both median and average sales prices were up (year to year) by 17.2% and 12.3% respectively.

For the first time in a while the inventory crept up slightly by 1.3%.  The reduced inventory is what is making prices rise as well as keeping sales volume down.  I expect both inventory and sales volume to increase in the coming year if the economic news continues to be positive.
