Hobe Sound Inventory Level Declines 1% in April April passed quickly by and brought with it increased activity from the investor market and their surging demand for lower priced opportunities. Ever so slowly the change from a bear market to a bull market continues to show momentum in South Florida. Investors are making up about 1/3 of the current market and their appetite continues to grow with prices being driven much higher in many investment grade communities. Almost 100% of these transactions are cash deals and end up with multiple offers being presented within a day or two of the listing hitting the market. Inventory levels in this market segment remain challenged with a demand that does not appear to be able to be fully sated. Another third of the market is made up of first time h... 05/08/2012

Hobe Sound Absorption Rate Falls to Multi Year Low The real estate market here in South Florida continues to defy gravity. Sales throughout the north county area were super strong in March with solid double digit gains over February numbers. We will be looking forward to the final numbers from April a few weeks down the road but can tell you at this point they too look rather amazing. Each month at this time we delve into the absorption rate in each of our local communities to see what this metric might tell us about the future direction of the market.   While over the past week or two we are seeing some additional inventory hit the market it seems much of this is from seasonal owners deciding to test the waters since they are heading back home for the summer. Some of these homes are pr... 04/28/2012

Hobe Sound Home Prices Flat on Strong Sales Numbers Spring is in the air, our streets here in paradise are less crowded and a seat at The Food Shack on Friday night is easier to find. All is well and the real estate market continues to thrive in south Florida. Finding well priced properties, especially single family homes in good shape, remains a struggle and seeing multiple Realtors with their clients in tow within hours of a new listing hitting the market is a typical sight.   While inventory levels remain lower than those we have been spoiled by over the past few years we are seeing some renewed listing activity over the past week or so. While we are still about a week away from our detailed look at inventory levels I expect them to have remained relatively unchanged. With interest r... 04/27/2012

Hobe Sound Inventory Levels Decline 7% in MarchAnother month has passed and many of our northern visitors have packed their bags and headed north for the summer. The local real estate markets continue to show marked improvement with the number of contracts executed to purchase homes remaining strong. Investors continue to drive the bottom end of the market and their numbers seem to multiply on a daily basis. Anyone who works with investors will attest how aggressive their clients need to be to successfully land one of the foreclosures that continue to hit the market. Other segments remain red hot as well with well priced single family homes under the $400,000 threshold in good condition remaining a very hot commodity. In a normal market this would be a sign of higher prices ahead but th... 04/03/2012

The current metrics surrounding the continued improvement we have seen for well over a year are as interesting as ever; foreclosures remain lower than expected, interest rates have made a move to the upside and finding well priced properties is many segments remains a difficult task.   Monthly we take a look in this column at the absorption rates in 5 communities and the trend of that metric is a very important sign as to the current strength of sales when compared to current inventory. The lower the absorption rate the stronger the market favoring sellers and the higher it goes shows the marke... 03/21/2012
