October 2013 Monthly Market Detail St Lucie County Single Family Homes

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.

The October 2013 Monthly Market Detail Martin County Single Family Homes as reported by Florida Realtors showed slightly slower activity than in most previous months this year, though still much improved from last year.   Closed sales were up by 8.5% (was 58.5% in September) and new sales under contract (new pending sales) increased by 36.2% (24.1% in September).

The median sales price was up by 20.6% from last year while unfortunately the average declined by 30.5%.October 2013 Monthly Market Detail Martin County Single Family Homes

The inventory of available single family homes increased this month to 1242 units but this is still down by 4.2% from last October.  Current supply of inventory is only 6.7 months (a 18.9% decrease from last year).  We are now in a balanced market for residential sales in Martin County.  Considering that this is typically the slower season for Martin County, I’m expecting a return to a sellers market once the holiday season is over.

September 2013 Monthly Market Detail St Lucie County Single Family Homes

The September 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 the past few months.   Closed sales were up by 4.1%  (in August they were up by 3.5%)  and new sales under contract (new pending sales) increased by 12% (they were up by 17.8% last month).

Both median and average sales prices were up (year to year) by 14.2% and 15% respectively year to year. 

The inventory of active listings rose in September (from last month) to 1947 homes, still down by 24.1% from last year.  Current supply of inventory is only 4.5 months (a 33.6% decrease from last year) and unchanged from August.  For September 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.  Prices have been rising because of the shortage of inventory and the slow recovery of the market.September 2013 Market Detail for Saint Lucie County Single Family

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).

June 2013 Monthly Market Detail St Lucie County Single Family Homes

Continuing a mostly positive trend for the June 2013 Monthly Market Detail St Lucie County Single Family Homes as reported by Florida Realtors.   The only negative detail was the year to year closed sales, which were down by 0.4% and while new sales under contract (new pending sales) increased by 42.6%!!

Both median and average sales prices were up (June 2012 to June 2013) by 23.3% and 16.6% respectively. 

One item of concern is the active inventory which continues to decrease significantly, presently only 1,664 homes, a decrease of 43.8% from last year.  Current supply of inventory is only 3.9 months (a 52.7% decrease from last year).  For June 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  expect to see a gradual increase in inventory.
