Case Shiller Home Price Index: December 2014: South Florida Home Sales Price Increases More Than National Average

The latest Case Shiller Index information shows continued strength in price appreciation in the South Florida residential real estate market as of December 2014.

On a sequential basis the South Florida housing market saw prices increase by 0.7% on a sequential basis and rose 8.4% on a year-over-year basis in December 2014, according to the Case-Shiller Home Price Index.

The Case-Shiller Index for the US housing market as comprised by the Composite-10 and Composite-20 Case-Shiller benchmarks showed a 0.1% price uptick on a sequential basis and 4.3% and 4.5% increase, respectively, on an annual basis in December 2014.

David Blitzer, the Managing Director and Chairman of the Index Committee at S&P commented as follows, " the housing recovery is faltering.  While prices and sales of existing homes are close to normal, construction and new home sales remain weak.  Before the current business cycle, any time housing starts were at their current level of about one million at annual rates, the economy was in a recession."

The strongest markets by price appreciation was San Francisco and Miami (South Florida), according to the Case Shiller Index.

The Case-Shiller Index also shows that measured from the peak in June/July 2006, the Composites are about 16% to 17% off the top.  The recovery since March of 2012 lows shows a recovery in the Case-Shiller Index of 28.2% for the Composite-10 and 29.1% for the Composite-20.

Case Shiller Home Price Index: November 2014: South Florida One Of The Leading Areas For Home Price Appreciation In US


The Case Shiller Composite-10 and Composite-20 showed a sequential decrease of -0.3% and -0.2%, respectively in November 2014; the Composites were up 4.2% and 4.3% on a year-over-year basis in November, respectively.
South Florida and San Francisco lead all US cities in year-over-year home price gain in November 2014, according to the Case Shiller Home Price Index.  



This compares with South Florida which showed a 0.6% sequential increase in November 2014, according to Case Shiller and a year-over-year increase of 8.6%.

David Blitzer, Managing Director and Chairman of the Index Committee stated, "with the spring home buying season and spring training, still a month or two away, the housing recovery is barely on first base.  Prospects for a home run in 2015 aren't good.  Strong price gains are limited to California, Florida, the Pacific Northwest, Denver and Dallas.  Most of the rest of the country is lagging the national index gains."

Case Shiller Price Index: December 2013: Heat Remains In South Florida Real Estate Market

The South Florida real estate market continued to have price appreciation in December 2013, according to the Case Shiller Index.  The Index indicated there was almost a 1.0% sequential increase and a 16.5% year-over-year increase in December 2013.  This compares with a relatively flat prices on a sequential basis for the US and only a 13.5% annual increase in December 2013 for the US.

David Blitzer, Chairman of the Index Committee said, "The Case Shiller Index ended its best year since 2005.  However, gains are slowing from month-to-month and the strongest part of the recovery in home values may be over."

He went on to say, "Recent economic reports suggest a bleaker picture for housing.  Existing home sales fell 5.1% in January from December to the slowest pace in over a year.  Permits for new residential construction and housing starts were both down and below expectations."

We are noting here that the Florida market has shown some of its strongest year-over-year growth comparisons during the December 2013 timeframe.  A seasonally strong period for the South Florida market is the winter months; however, the comparison was with same period the previous year.  We think this shows the South Florida real estate market continues to be a strong market with upward momentum in pricing.
