🟢 Buyer-leaning market. 6.5 months of supply and 12% of the inventory already under contract give buyers above-average negotiating leverage.Why it matters: months of supply is how long today's inventory would last at today's sales pace; under-contract share is the portion of homes for sale that already have a buyer.Momentum Research analysis of Beaches MLS records, as of August 10, 2026.

Martin County approves limited-industrial zoning on Southeast Powerline Avenue in Hobe Sound
Commissioners voted 3-2 to rezone a property along Southeast Powerline Avenue to limited-industrial, a less intensive class than the general industrial designation first proposed. The county said the existing zoning was outdated and that no data center is planned. Any proposal over 100,000 square feet would need board approval.
What it may mean for the marketLimited-industrial zoning could add light industrial space and local jobs in Hobe Sound while capping the scale of future uses. The project is about 21 miles southeast of River Marina, elsewhere in Martin County.

Federal government awards $79 million for St. Lucie River Bridge replacement in Stuart; Brightline station grant denied
The century-old St. Lucie River Bridge replacement received $79 million in federal funding. The federal Intercity Passenger Rail Program did not fund a proposed Brightline station in downtown Stuart. Martin County said it welcomed the bridge funding.
What it may mean for the marketBridge replacement funding supports a key rail and river crossing, while the denied grant leaves the timing of a Stuart passenger rail stop uncertain. The site is about 10 miles southeast of River Marina.

St. Lucie County reviews updated Port of Fort Pierce master plan with mega-yacht marina and spaceport recovery facility
The 2026 master plan for the Port of Fort Pierce proposes a mega-yacht marina, a spaceport recovery facility, expanded boat ramps and restaurants, with a marine commercial district at Harbour Pointe. County officials say nearly 15,000 registered boats compete for 147 trailer parking spaces near the inlet. The plan is under county review and Fort Pierce holds final approval.
What it may mean for the marketAdded boat ramp parking and marine commercial space would expand waterfront access and dining options near the Fort Pierce Inlet over a multi-year timeline. The site is about 10 miles north of River Marina.

The River Marina buying strategy.
If we were buying in River Marina today, this is the order of operations we would run for our clients.
Underwrite the condition first. Price the roof, HVAC, and systems honestly before judging any list price; condition swings value here more than square footage alone.
Match the home to real comps. Recent sales of similar condition and lot, not the asking price, tell you what a home is worth.
Use your leverage. With inventory sitting, there is room to negotiate on anything dated or overpriced and to ask for repairs or a rate buydown.
Line up financing and inspection early. A pre-approval and an inspection plan let you act fast and negotiate from evidence.
Keep an agent in your corner. The listing agent works for the seller; we represent you and prepare a hand-built valuation before any offer in River Marina.
A closer look at the River Marina market

Inventory runs at 6.5 months of supply, a buyer-leaning market and the trailing-12-month median down 6% year over year. Homes that do trade take a median 91 days on market, useful leverage on any listing that has lingered.
The housing stock is 385 homes built between 2006 and 2017, and 68% of parcels are homesteaded — the owner-occupancy proxy in the Florida DOR assessment roll.
The location and the amenities are priced into every listing in River Marina. The deal is won or lost on condition, the comps, and the renovation math.

Composite is the plain average of the 5 factors (6.3). Basis: Long-Term Appreciation +271% since 2012; Recent Direction -6.0% year-over-year; Liquidity & Demand 6.5 months of supply; Owner Commitment 68% owner-occupied; Pricing Power 95.0% sale-to-list.

The parts of the monthly number a mortgage calculator leaves out, from the tax roll, the MLS, Citizens and FEMA. Property facts only.
| Property tax | Current owners' bills run a median of $4,159/yr across 14 listings here (MLS tax records, 2026-10-14). |
|---|---|
| HOA dues | Median $148/month across 211 MLS listings (most billed monthly; 2026-10-14). Dues cover what the documents say they cover; ask for the budget and reserve study. |
| Home and flood insurance | The average Citizens Property Insurance premium in Martin County is $2,580/yr (1,552 policies, Citizens detail by county, April 2026); private-market quotes depend on roof age, wind mitigation and construction. Flood: of 16 listing addresses checked against the FEMA flood map, 100% sit outside the high-risk zone. Statewide, a Zone X flood policy runs about $500-$700/yr and a high-risk zone $1,200-$2,500/yr (FEMA Risk Rating 2.0 averages, not quotes). |
| Roof and age | Median build year 2015 across 14 listings. An original roof here is about 11 years old: still inside the 15-year window Florida carriers use, but ask for the roof's permit date before you bind coverage. |
Estimated carrying cost at the median asking price, before the mortgage: about $710/month (tax $347, HOA $148, insurance $215). An estimate from the sources above, not a quote.
