Sewalls Point Single Family Market Report January 2016

The single family real estate market in Sewalls Point remains challenging as many of the homes in this community are in the higher end of the price spectrum or some homes are older and in need of updating and the sellers feel the cache of this exclusive community warrants the listing price.

The current absorption rate dropped to 14.25 months, in December it was 17 months. Still a strong buyers market for Sewalls Point.  Though, if the trend for improving sales continue, this may soon come to an end.  A 6 to 7 month absorption rate is considered a balanced market where neither the seller nor buyer have an advantage.

Comparing the results to January of 2014, the inventory was 58 homes on the market, 10 pending sales and there were 3 closed sales.  With very similar inventory, market activity is better for 2016 than for last year in Sewalls Point, but still plenty of room for improvement.

The Stuart FL 34996 Condo Market is bucking the trend for the off season with increased activity for August.  Both closed and pending sales increased while the level of inventory decreases to very low numbers.  This level of activity will be unsustainable if the inventory doesn’t rise soon.  This is good news for sellers as the prices continue to rise and demand seems to be strong.

The current absorption rate for the Stuart Florida condos in ZIP Code 34996 – increased to 3.9 months from July’s 5.8 months.  Back into a strong sellers’ market.  A balanced market is considered to occur when the absorption rate is from 6 to 7 months.
