January 2015 Monthly Market Detail St Lucie County Townhouses and Condos

The January 2015 Monthly Market Detail St Lucie County Townhouses and Condos as reported by Florida Realtors began 2015 with much weaker activity after a very strong December of 2014. Closed sales was down by 1.2% (was up by 29.8% in December) while new sales under contract (new pending sales) increased by 15.9% (was up by 20.2% in December).

The median sales price was up by 3.9% (up 8.3% in December) and the average sales price decreased by 10.1% (was down by 5.1% in December). Prices for townhouses and condos in the St Lucie County market have been erratic for the past few months. These differences in median and average prices indicate more sales in the lower end of the price ranges for St Lucie County townhouses and condos.

The inventory of available townhouses and condos increased by 11 units from last month to 694 properties, which is still down by 24.6% from last January. Current supply of inventory increased to 6.6 months from December, which was 6.5 months. This is 26.4% lower than last year. The St. Lucie County townhouse and condo market remains is slipping into a buyers market for the short term. It is good to see a continued increase in inventory for January after many months of decreases.

January 2015 Monthly Market Detail St Lucie County Single Family Homes

January 2015 Monthly Market Detail St Lucie County Single Family Homes as reported by Florida Realtors began the year with a bit of a whimper as compared to last years activity.  Closed sales were unchanged (in December they were up by 6.7%) and new sales under contract (new pending sales) decreased by 5.7% (they were up by 10.5% last month).

Both median and average sales prices were up significantly (year to year) by 23.4% and 17.9% respectively from last January (For December these numbers were 16.3% and 14.8%).  Stronger increases in value at more than triple the statewide averages.  While this is an excellent metric for prospective home sellers, it is a bit of a concern for future sales as St Lucie County homes are rapidly becoming more expensive.

The inventory of active listings increased in January (from last month) by 96 homes to 1,748, which is still lower than last year’s inventory by 14.3%. The current supply of inventory is only 3.8 months (a 24.4% decrease from last year). A very strong sellers market for the Saint Lucie County single family home market.  Hopefully we will continue to see strong results for the single family real estate market in St Lucie County.

The current supply of inventory is only 3.6 months (a 29.5% decrease from last year). A strong sellers market for the Saint Lucie County single family home market. This reduced inventory is exerting strong pressure on keeping price increases high.  When and if more inventory comes on line, I expect price increases to moderate considerably.
