November 2013 Monthly Market Detail Florida Single Family Homes

The Florida real estate market showed some weakness for the November 2013 Monthly Market Detail Florida Single Family Homes as reported by Florida Realtors.  Both closed and pending sales were off.   Year to year closed sales were down by 1.2% (were up by 6.5 % in October) and new sales under contract (new pending sales) decreased by 5.9% (was up by 3.4% in October).

Florida Single Family

Both median and average sales prices were up (November 2012 to November 2013) by 13.3% and 7.1% respectively.   Not quite as much of an increase as in previous months this year, but those kinds of increases were unsustainable.

The inventory of available homes for sale increased by 10% from last year.  This is now the second 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. I would like to see the volume of closed sales be higher and with the current excellent economic news, I expect these numbers to go up soon.

The October 2013 Monthly Market Detail St Lucie County Single Family Homes as reported by Florida Realtors has moderated in the past couple of months as compared to last years activity.   Closed sales were unchanged from last year  (in September they were up by 4.1%)  and new sales under contract (new pending sales) decreased by 6.9% (they were up by 12% last month).

Both median and average sales prices were up (year to year) by 29% and 24.6% respectively year to year. October 2013 Monthly Market Detail St Lucie County Single Family Homes

The inventory of active listings rose in October (from last month) to 2104 homes, still down by 8.1% from last year.  Current supply of inventory is only 4.9 months (a 18.3% decrease from last year).  For October 2013 this remains a strong sellers market in the St Lucie County area.  However with the significant rise in prices as well as increasing mortgage rates, the current trend appears to be leveling off as inventory also is starting to rebound.  I expect continued good activity for the Saint Lucie County single family market but I wouldn’t be surprised to see a moderation in the rising values.

October 2013 Monthly Market Detail Florida Townhouses and Condos

The October 2013 Monthly Market Detail Florida Townhouses and Condos for the state of Florida continues to show gains though not as robust as they were earlier in the year.  Year to year closed sales were up by 3.1% as compared to last months increase of 11.4% and new sales under contract (new pending sales) decreased by 3.6% (September’s increase was 4.6%).October 2013 Monthly Market Detail Florida Townhouses and Condos

Both median and average sales prices were up (year to year) by 22.1% and 12% respectively.

One item of concern is the active inventory which has decreased again (though slightly), for October by .09%.  The reduced inventory will eventually result in lower sales volume as there just isn’t enough homes available for sale.  This will also result in strong upward pressure on prices and at some point renewed activity in new construction.  If prices rise to a level where currently underwater home owners can see a profit or even a break even price, I will expect a gradual increase in inventory.

October 2013 Monthly Market Detail Florida Single Family Homes

The Florida real estate market continues to improve as reported by Florida Realtors for the October 2013 Monthly Market Detail Florida Single Family Homes, though at not quite as great a rate as in past months.  All indices have once again moved in a positive direction.  Year to year closed sales were up by 6.5% (was 18.8% in September) and new sales under contract (new pending sales) increased by 3.4% (was 10.5% in September).October 2013 Monthly Market Detail Florida Single Family Homes

Both median and average sales prices were up (October 2012 to October 2013) by 16.6% and 12.6% respectively.   Very strong numbers that I expect will moderate in the next few months unless the overall state economy shows some improvements as well.

The inventory of available homes for sale increased by 3.3% from last year.  This is the first month in some time that we’ve seen an increase in inventory.  I’ve been expecting this, and as inventory increases the pressure on rising prices will ease as well.  Making the double digit gains of this past year a little more difficult to sustain.

August 2013 Monthly Market Detail St Lucie County Single Family Homes

August 2013 Monthly Market Detail St Lucie County Single Family Homes

The August 2013 Monthly Market Detail St Lucie County Single Family Homes as reported by Florida Realtors continues the positive trend that has been apparent all this year, though at a more moderate rate for August.   Closed sales were up by 3.5%  (in July they were up by 4.3%)  and new sales under contract (new pending sales) increased by 17.8% (they were up by 55.6% last month).

Both median and average sales prices were up (year to year) by 12.7% and 9.2% respectively. 

The inventory of active listings declined in August to 1841 homes, down by 31.3% from last year.  Current supply of inventory is only 4.3 months (a 31.3% decrease from last year) and unchanged from July.  For August 2013 this remains a strong sellers market in the St Lucie County area.  Lower inventory typically results in lower sales volume as there just isn’t enough homes available for sale.  This will also result in strong upward pressure on prices and at some point renewed activity in new construction.  If prices rise to a level where currently underwater home owners can see a profit or even a break even price, I  expect to see continued increases in inventory.
