THE MODERNIST ANGLE

THE S. FLORIDA REAL ESTATE MARKET IN JUNE

22/7/2011

0 Comments

 
THE SINGLE FAMILY HOME MARKET

The market for single family homes in Southeast Florida (three counties Palm Beach, Broward and Miami-Dade) in June proved the old saying again


“In the month of June, housing sales see a boon”.

Ahem. Now you also know why some persons were not admitted into Rapping 101.

Seriously: as in the last four years, June is the month so far with the highest number of SFH closings in all three counties (in 2009 it tied with December).


Those June closings would have been signed into contract in April or May.

Does that mean buyers want to buy before school’s out? Before it gets too hot? Before Memorial Day? This Realtor is at a loss to explain.

Some people may argue that winter should be the peak real estate season, when the Florida population swells and there are more potential buyers around, especially from colder climates. But not so, at least not for single family homes.

Another oddity: while inventory keeps tightening, prices still slide – not every month, but certainly year over year; minus 5.0 percent in this case. Go figure.


The June numbers:
  • SFH for sale: 21,318  (-3.2%)
  • Inventory (months): 6  (-9.0%)
  • Median list price: $293,150  (-0.4%)
  • Median list price per sf: $142  (no change)
  • Houses sold last month: 3,536  (6.9%)
  • Median selling price: $192,000  (0.3%)
  • Median selling price per sf: $101  (-0.3%)

THE MODERN HOME MARKET

Despite what it looks like – a modernist inventory spike in June – there really isn’t one. Easy to say. But it doesn’t feel like an upswing in inventory; quite in contrast.

As explained last month, the number of available homes under $1M shrank by 25% year over year, the number offered under $500K went down by a hefty 45%. The little inventory uptick in June (per June 30th to 255 modern homes) has already been erased – as of writing this post, it is down again. And so are absolute listing and selling prices.
