MARKET OVERVIEW
Stuart's waterfront inventory remains elevated at 12.4 months of supply, with 199 active listings priced at a $379,000 median asking price versus a $315,000 median sold price, reflecting a 95.6% list-to-sale ratio and suggesting persistent pricing adjustments in the market. The 16 closed sales in May with an average marketing time of 89 days indicates moderate transaction velocity, while waterfront properties with dock access command a 32.1% premium over comparable non-dock parcels, underscoring buyer demand for direct water access as a pricing differentiator. The 12-month supply figure signals a buyer-favorable environment with reduced urgency for sellers, contrasting with tighter coastal markets and positioning Stuart as a more negotiable marketplace for waterfront acquisitions.
