Martin County Florida Condo Market Report for November 2012

Martin County Florida Condo Market Report for November 2012

 

Commentary:

The Martin County Florida Condo Market for November 2012 showed some improvement from last year, but continues to struggle in a difficult market.  Sales for November were 47 units down slightly from the 50 in October.  Though, considerably better than November of 2011 during which we saw only 35 sales.  The inventory rose to 617 condos (up 43 from October) which is about 60 condos less than were available last year.  I am anticipating a greater increase in inventory as many condo owners try to maximize the seasonal impact of this market.  The median sales price was up in November to $125,000 after taking a sizable drop in October which had dipped to $114,750.  Last year in November the median sales price was $112,500.

The one month absorption rate is up to 13.3 months, while the three-month average is at 12.9 months.  Still a very challenging market for condo sellers.  But quite attractive opportunities for buyers.  We need to see a sustained absorption rate below 9 months for a healthy market and down to 6 or 7 months to be considered a balanced one.

Currently, the condo market is under-performing as compared to our residential market and the condo markets of our southern neighbors.  I do expect this trend to stop as buyers realize the bargains currently available in the Martin County condo market.

Absorption Rate  

 The Definition of Absorption Rate:
Number of months it takes to sell the current inventory at the present rate of sales. Knowing your area’s Absorption Rate, helps to track trends. Understanding the market and where it is headed is part of our job as real estate professionals. Absorption rate is NOT an exact science. Figuring it is based on the premise that one will be looking for a TREND. It is advised to consistently do the numbers each month, to be able to track a trend.

Snug Harbor Stuart FL

December 2012 Market Update for Snug Harbor Stuart FL:

There are 7 homes currently for sale in Snug Harbor Stuart FL.  Listing prices range from $695,000 to $2,550,000. (3 wide waterfront homes and 4 homes with marina access)

There are currently no homes under contract or pending.

2 homes have sold in the past 12 months.  Ranging in sales price from $360,000 to $967,250.  Neither of these homes were waterfront.

Located on the wide Saint Lucie River just east of the city of Stuart Florida is the unique subdivision of Snug Harbor. While the real estate market on the Treasure Coast has it’s problems, Snug Harbor remains a desirable community as recent sales can show.

Snug Harbor was the vision of a group of 10 Yachtsmen, many former Commodores of the Chicago Yacht Club back in 1943. They bought the land and platted the area in September 1944 as well as forming the Snug Harbor Corporation, which controlled the ownership of the lots.

Snug Harbor

In 1975 the deeds were distributed and/or sold to the then owners and a condominium form of ownership was established under the name of the Snug Harbor Yacht Club. With both waterfront and non-waterfront homes and estates, located just minutes away from the ocean by boat or car and also convenient to downtown Stuart, offices, restaurants and recreational areas.

Snug Harbor is one of the finest communities in Martin County. There are only 72 home sites with a club house, deep water marina, boat ramp, trailer parking and tennis courts. There is an active association with social activities year round that make this community a very attractive place to call home.

Please feel free to contact Gabe Sanders (772-323-6996), a Snug Harbor resident and board member, if you would like any information about this wonderful community.

Martin County Florida Condo Market Report for October 2012

 

Commentary:

The Martin County Florida Condo Market for October 2012 continues to tread water neither getting worse or better.  Sales for October were up to 50 units from a very weak 39 in September.  Just about identical to October 2011 which had 53 sales.  The inventory rose to 574 condos (up 6 from September) which is about 100 condos less than were available last year.  I would not be surprised to see more inventory growth as we get into the upcoming  fall and winter condo season.  The median sales price did take a hit in October , down to $114,750 down from $159,000 for September, but still above last year’s $92,500.

The one month absorption rate is up to 11.5 months, while the three-month average is at 12.7 months.  Still a very challenging market for condo sellers.  But quite attractive opportunities for buyers.  We need to see a sustained absorption rate below 9 months for a healthy market and down to 6 or 7 months to be considered a balanced one.

Martin County Florida Condo Market Report for September 2012

Martin County Florida Condo Market Report for September 2012

 

Commentary:

The Martin County Florida Condo Market for September 2012 was fairly slow.  Though this is typical for our seasonal condo market, we were hoping for a little better activity.  Sales for September were down to 39 units from 46 in August.  Just about identical to September 2011 which had 40 sales.  The inventory was down by 10 units and is basically holding steady as last year at this time it was 623 condos available for sale.  I would not be surprised to see more inventory growth as we get into the upcoming  fall and winter condo season.  The median sales price took a big jump in September as some fairly high priced condos were sold last month. (Up to $159,000 from just $97,000 for August)

The one month absorption rate is up to 14.6 months, while the three-month average is at 12.1 months.  Still a very challenging market for sellers with the accompanying quite attractive opportunities for buyers.  We need to see a sustained absorption rate below 9 months for a healthy market and down to 6 or 7 months to be considered a balanced one.

Currently, the condo market is under-performing as compared to our residential market and the condo markets of our southern neighbors.  I do expect this trend to stop as buyers realize the bargains currently available in the Martin County condo market.

The Definition of Absorption Rate:
Number of months it takes to sell the current inventory at the present rate of sales. Knowing your area’s Absorption Rate, helps to track trends. Understanding the market and where it is headed is part of our job as real estate professionals. Absorption rate is NOT an exact science. Figuring it is based on the premise that one will be looking for a TREND. It is advised to consistently do the numbers each month, to be able to track a trend.
