Residential Market Report for March 2011 in Martin County, Florida

Residential Market Report for March 2011 in Martin County, Florida

For March 2011, Martin County residential sales showed some of the best numbers since 2005.  Sales were up significantly over last year and inventory is down to 2005 levels.  The one-month absorption rate is now below 9 months.  Should this trend continue, we should see a much more balanced market in the future.  In fact, prices have now held steady in terms of average numbers for a few months (please keep in mind that this statistic can be misleading as the mix of sales has been leaning to a little higher price bracket that can skew the numbers).  The big unknown is the so-called ‘shadow inventory’ of bank-owned properties as well as short sales that can continue to have negative pricing pressures on areas when there is a significant number of such properties come on the market.  But, all in all, a very strong March for Martin County real estate.  Should this trend continue, those buyers waiting on the sidelines for the bottom of the market may have missed it.

Residential Market Report for February 2011 in Martin County, Florida

Residential Market Report for February 2011 in Martin County, Florida

For February 2011, Martin County residential sales rebounded from the poor January results and have come in at fairly good numbers compared to the past few years.  Inventory remains high but also continues to decrease.  We are seeing a significant number of homes on the market that are basically not a viable sale at their current price and condition, so the real inventory is probably a bit less than the total number on the chart.  Average sales prices decreased for February, however, the median price was up, so in effect, we feel prices by and large have either stabilized or are decreasing at very low rates in most segments of the market, with some notable exceptions.  These exceptions are the very upper end of the price range as well as continued pressure on newer communities built during the boom times.  The absorption rate remains troublesomely high at over 15 months.

Residential Market Report for January 2011 in Martin County, Florida

Residential Market Report for January 2011 in Martin County, Florida

Unlike the very strong December sales of single-family homes and townhomes in December 2010, January 2011 came in with a whimper.  Sales were down to 85 units as opposed to 148 in December.  Even prices sent mixed signals as the median price was down and the average price was up.  About the only good news was a continued small decrease in inventory.  Now down to 1787 units. Just above the low point in May of 2010 and Matching the Dec 2005 level.  The brutal winter up north might just bring more buyers for the remainder of this season.  Come back in the next few months to see the results.

There appears to be an increase in the volume of sales this winter to date.  We are expecting a better spring than in the past few years, however, there is a strong likelihood of more bank-owned and distressed properties coming on the market keeping price pressure down.
