Martin County Florida Condo Market Report for February 2012

Martin County Florida Condo Market Report for February 2012

Commentary:

Much like the residential segment of the Martin County real estate market, the Martin County Florida Condo Market Report for February 2012 showed modest increases for February of 2012. Sales for February were a respectable 57 units, up by 3 from February of 2011 (54 units) and also up from January which had 37 sales. On a negative note, the median sales price took a dive to $85,000.  This is most likely a reflection of the mix of condos that sold in February as opposed to a big drop in values.  More of the lower priced mainland condos were the ones that drove down the median price.

The inventory continues to decline and is now down to 640 condos, which is down from 664 units last month and from 772 condos in February of 2011.  This is the lowest inventory since November of 2005 which was prior to the ‘bubble’.  A decreased inventory will trigger an increase in demand as the supply of existing units just isn’t available increasing the urgency for buyers.

The one month absorption rate is now at 11.23 months, while the three month average is at 13.54 months.  Considerably better than the 14.3 and 15.51 months of February 2011. We still need to see the absorption rate below 9 months for a healthy market and down to 6 or 7 months to be considered a balanced one.

The big uncertainty that remains is the economy. We believe that if we have any sustained good news, we will see a pretty good rush on the market which will be a nice change from the present. For the longer term, even though we have the best mortgage rates in history at the moment, inflation is making news and this is not good for rates down the line. The Fed is working hard to keep rates down, but for how long, we’re just not to sure.

Our outlook for Martin County is fairly positive as for buyers, prices and rates remain very attractive. For sellers, it doesn’t look like we’re going to see any significant improvements soon, so if you need to sell, you may be better off now than possibly in the near future.

Martin County Florida Residential Market Report for February 2012

Martin County Florida Residential Market Report for February 2012

Commentary:

The Martin County Florida residential market report for February 2012 showed excellent results. The sales volume of 116 homes was the exact same as last year and up by 18 homes from January (98). The one month absorption rate was down to 11.85 months while the three month moving average is at 11.31 months. Activity remains high and I expect some fairly respectable numbers for the coming months.

Both average and median sales prices were up from January.  In fact, average sales prices have risen for the last two months.  Along with this trend, listing prices are also inching up, and have been rising for the past six months.  The inventory declined to 1375 residential units.  This is the lowest value since October of 2005, before the ‘bubble’.  The reduction of inventory is what is exerting strong pressure on possible price increases.  While a continuing trickle of distressed properties (short sales and foreclosures) are counteracting the upward price pressure.

Our outlook for Martin County remains optimistic as prices and rates remain at historic low levels. For sellers, homes are selling, and if priced and presented optimally, they are going quickly. Buyers are seeing historically low interest rates and very affordable quality homes in almost all price ranges.

Stuart’s 34994 ZIP code area continues to show a steady improvement across the board.  Inventory decreased, and pending and closed sales were up.   With a dwindling inventory, we are rapidly approaching the point that buyers will either pay a premium if they want this location or look elsewhere.

With the lower number of homes on the market this year, it will be interesting to see what happens as we continue in the height of the season these months.

The Marriott Resort at Indian River Plantation Features:

Indian River Plantation consists of numerous condominium associations and buildings.  All styles from Ocean front to Riverfront and Golf and Tennis villas can be found here.  IRP is associated and co-located with the Marriott Resort and Marina.

Tucked away on Hutchinson Island, the Treasure Coast’s 16-mile lush barrier island is a unique resort that greets guests with the warmth of genuine Southern hospitality.

The Hutchinson Island Marriott Beach Resort and Marina stretches across 200 acres of plantation landscape on Hutchinson Island, bordered on one side by the Atlantic Ocean and by the shimmering Indian River on the other side.

A newly remodeled lobby with sweeping draperies, plantation-style wood furnishings and tropical tones sets the stage for a magical golf getaway. This is the gateway to an array of championship and executive courses, including Nicklaus, Fazio, and Player designs.

Golfers of all skill levels will enjoy the challenging fairways and greens found in the area’s 12 courses. Plantation East, the resort’s own course, meanders throughout the island and is characterized by water on 17 of 18 holes. This 4,042-yard, par-61 executive course requires careful club selection and precision shot-making to overcome constantly changing ocean breezes.

Martin County Florida Condo Market Report for January 2012

Martin County Florida Condo Market Report for January 2012

Commentary:

Much like the residential segment of the Martin County real estate market, the Martin County Florida Condo Market Report for January 2012 retreated for the first month of 2012.  Sales for January were an anemic 37 units, down from January of 2011 (42 units)  and also off from December which had 52 sales.  On a positive note, the median sales price was at it’s highest level in over a year.  Unfortunately, I don’t believe that this represents a rise in prices, but rather the mix of types of units that have sold.  There is still too much inventory in some segments to sustain a continued rise in prices, though we are reaching very near the bottom of the market, if we haven’t already passed it.

The inventory is now down to 664 condos, which is down from 673 last month and from 774 in January of 2011.  A decreased inventory generally will trigger an increase in demand as the supply of existing units just isn’t available increasing the urgency for buyers.

Unfortunately the absorption rate remains troubling on the higher end, with January’s one month value of almost 18 months and the three month moving average is now up to 16.2 months. said another way, it’s averaging well over a year for the average condo to sell in Martin County, Florida.  We need to get the absorption rate below 9 months for a healthy market and down to 6 or 7 months to be considered a balanced one.

The big uncertainty that remains is the economy. We believe that if we have any sustained good news, we will see a pretty good rush on the market which will be a nice change from the present. For the longer term, even though we have the best mortgage rates in history at the moment, inflation is making news and this is not good for rates down the line. The Fed is working hard to keep rates down, but for how long, we’re just not to sure.

Our outlook for Martin County is fairly positive as for buyers, prices and rates remain very attractive. For sellers, it doesn’t look like we’re going to see any significant improvements soon, so if you need to sell, you may be better off now than possibly in the near future.

Martin County Florida Residential Market Report for January 2012

Martin County Florida Residential Market Report for January 2012

Commentary:

The Martin County Florida residential market report for January 2012 starts the year on a slow note. Sales volume (98 units) was up as compared to last year (85) but considerably down from December (160). The one-month absorption rate shot up to14.5 months while the three-month moving average is at a more respectable 10.7 months.  Activity does appear to be high though and I expect that the January numbers reflect slow closings from the slow holiday season (as closings tend to lag from one to three months after the contracts are agreed upon.

The average sales price was up slightly from last year, while the median price was down.   Prices seem to be holding pretty steady at this time in most segments of the market and quality homes that are priced well are selling quickly.  The inventory remained stable (up only by two homes).

Our outlook for Martin County remains optimistic as prices and rates remain at historic low levels. For sellers, homes are selling, and if priced and presented optimally, they are going quickly. Buyers are seeing historically low-interest rates and very affordable quality homes in almost all price ranges.

There are currently 154 active condo listings (Up 1 condos from December).

33 Condo sales are pending and awaiting close or lender approval. (Down 2 from last month)

11 Condos Sold in January (Down 2 units from December).

The Stuart condo market for the area in ZIP code 34994 continues to show weakness.  The January results were off slightly from December, which in fact should show increased activity as we head into the season.  Unfortunately, this was not the case.   The inventory continued to increase, pending home sales were also off and sales were down as well. Compared to January of 2011, when there were 173 active listings, 68 pending sales, and 9 closed sales.  The inventory is down from last year, but pending and closed sales remain weak in this segment of the market.  This is increasing pressure for additional price drops unless sales can pick up in the latter part of this season.

In the next few months, the peak season for condos will show what the market can bear for 2012 for the Treasure Coast condo market.

There are currently 59 active listings (an increase of 1 home for sale from December)

11 Residential sales are pending and awaiting close or lender approval (An increase of 3 from December)

3 Homes sold in December (Down 2 from December)

After a fairly good December of 2011, January was pretty tepid for the Sewalls Point housing market.   We only had three sales in January as opposed to 5 in December, two of these sales were in the middle price ranges for Sewalls Point above $450,000 (sales price).  Inventory remains quite high for Sewalls Point.  On a brighter note, pending sales were up to 11 an increase of 3 from last month.

Comparing the results to January of 2011, the inventory is down from 65 homes, pending sales were 9 last year, and 2 homes sold. Other than a lower inventory, the numbers are almost identical to a year ago.
