Hobe Sound FL 33455 Condo Market Report December 2015

The Hobe Sound condo market (Zip Code 33455) is the smallest segment of the Martin County real estate market.  With only 4 actively listed condos, there’s just not that many options out there for buyers.  Amazingly, there were no changes from last month at all.

The current absorption rate is 4 months (Unchanged from last month).  This absorption rate should be taken with a liberal grain of salt, as small changes in activity make for very large changes on percentages that may not reflect a true trend in the market. An absorption rate of 6 to 7 months is considered to be a balanced market favoring neither the buyer or seller.

The December 2014 numbers were: 13 active listings, 6 pending sales and 5 closed sales.  Much better activity last year with considerably more inventory to work with.
