August 2013 Monthly Market Detail Martin County Single Family Homes

Positive reports for the August 2013 Monthly Market Detail Martin County Single Family Homes as reported by Florida Realtors, though not quite as robust as last month.   Closed sales were up by 9.1% (was 18.2% in July) and new sales under contract (new pending sales) increased by 35.2% (42.1% in July).

Both the median and average sales prices (year to year) increased this month by percentages of 17% and 29.8% respectively.

The inventory of available single family homes have decreased to 1102 units which is down by 21.1% from last August.  Current supply of inventory is only 6.2 months (a 31.4% decrease from last year).  We are now in a balanced market for residential sales in Martin County.  There’s no reason not to expect a seller’s market should the inventory continue to decrease.

August 2013 Monthly Market Detail Florida Townhouses and Condos

The August 2013 Monthly Market Detail Florida Townhouses and Condos for the state of Florida continues to show gains though not as robust as they were in the spring of this year.  Year to year closed sales were up by 6.3% as compared to last months increase of 16.8% and new sales under contract (new pending sales) increased by 11.6% (July’s increase was 20.7%).

Both median and average sales prices were up (year to year) by a healthy 25.2% and 18.6% respectively. 

One item of concern is the active inventory which has decreased again, for August by 13.8%.  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.Florida Townhome Condo

More good news for the Florida real estate market as reported by Florida Realtors for the August 2013 Monthly Market Detail Florida Single Family Homes for the entire state of Florida.  All indices have once again moved in a positive direction with the exception of inventory (active listings), though not by quite as large percentages as last month.  Year to year closed sales were up by 12.5% (was 20.9% in July) and new sales under contract (new pending sales) increased by 17.2% (was 25.9% in June).

Both median and average sales prices were up (August 2012 to August 2013) by 18.6% and 13.6% respectively.  August results are very positive though slightly less robust than July

The inventory of available homes for sale remains a concern as it continues to decrease, down by 12.3% from last year.  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.Florida Single Family Market Detai

July 2013 Monthly Market Detail St Lucie County Single Family Homes

The July 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 July.   Closed sales were up by 4.3% which were down by 0.4% (in June they were down by .4%)  and new sales under contract (new pending sales) increased by 55.6% (they were up by 42.6% last month).

Both median and average sales prices were up (year to year) by 23.2% and 21.7% respectively. 

The inventory of active listings rose from last month, but is still down by 34.2% from last year.  Current supply of inventory is only 4.3 months (a 43.6% decrease from last year) and up slightly from 3.9 months from June.  For July 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.

May 2013 Monthly Market Detail St Lucie County Single Family Homes

Continuing the positive trend for the May 2013 Monthly Market Detail St Lucie County Single Family Homes as reported by Florida Realtors.   Year to year closed sales were up by 6.7% and new sales under contract (new pending sales) increased by 59%!!

Both median and average sales prices were up (May 2012 to May 2013) by 21.4% and 12.1% respectively. 

One item of concern is the active inventory which continues to decrease significantly (47.5%).  Current supply of inventory is only 3.9 months (a 57% decrease from last year).  For May 2013 it was a strong sellers market in the St Lucie County area.  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.
