This is a lot of data to report on in one (1) article with “20″ zip codes. A short summary follows:

Number of Home Sales Increased Over 2010! For the number of home sales, only 9 zip codes reported a smaller number of sales. And, Ten (10) Zip Codes experienced more sales in Q1 2011 than in Q1 2010, which is great news for our market.

Average Sales Prices Overall Decline! This is consistent with the CoreLogic report on national home prices falling for the 7th straight month, as reported on Thursday, April 7, 2011. Thirteen (13) of the 20 Zip Codes showed declining average sales prices versus only Seven (7) showing increases. Local home prices are continuing to correct.

http://www.batonrougemarketmetrics.com/ – Baton Rouge Housing: Monticello Subdivisions Market Update For 2010 in 70814

I recently completed 2 home appraisal assignments in Monticello Subdivision this week, both on Monticello Boulevard, and noticed these observations. There appears to be some decline due to REO or foreclosure activity. The Average Sold Price Per Sq. Ft. is down $6/sf and Median Sales Price is down $5,000 from 2009 versus 2010. AND, 5 of the 12 Current Listings are Foreclosures with more at least 2 more foreclosures that could be on the market later in 2011.

Solds In The Monticello Subdivisions from 1/1/2010 to 12/16/2010 revealed:

Average Sales Price: $138,580 ($154,573 in 2009)
Average Sold Price Per Sq. Ft.: $85/sf ($91/sf in 2009)
Median Sold Price: $145,000 ($150,500 in 2009)
Number of Sales: 15 (20 in 2009)
Average Number of Days On Market: 64 (96 in 2009)
Low To High: $82,000 to $169,000
Number of Sold REO/Foreclosures Noted In MLS: 3 or 20% of All Sales
Current # Listings: 12, 5 Are Foreclosures or 42% of All Listings
Current Listings Prices: $89,900 To $175,000

The 15 sales in in this very large subdivision in 2010 versus the 20 in 2009 reflects the current slowdown of this market post Federal Tax Credit Expiration. Without the tax credit, there doesn’t appear to be as much incentive to purchase a home. This slowdown in homes sales in a trend throughout the Baton Rouge housing market in latter 2010.

NOTE: Based on information from the Greater Baton Rouge Association of REALTORS®\MLS for the period of January 1, 2009 to December 16, 2010. This information was extracted on 12/16/2010.

http://www.batonrougerealestateappraisal.com/ – Baton Rouge Certified Home Appraisers: Area Home Sales See Gains In March

The Advocate Newspaper and Chad Calder are reporting “BR-area home sales see gain in March“, click on the link to read the entire article. Below is a snippet:

“The number of homes sold in the Baton Rouge metro area rose slightly in March, though the first quarter was down 2 percent.

The March bright spot is largely due to an increase in Ascension Parish.

The figures, compiled by the Greater Baton Rouge Association of Realtors, account for about 85 percent of the market in the eight-parish area.

Realtors sold 600 homes in the metro area in March, 1 percent more than the 594 sold in the same month last year. Dollar volume in March was up 2 percent to $118.0 million.

The quarter, however, still reflects the downward trend that has characterized recent years. There were 1,406 homes sold during the first three months of the year, compared to 1,431 the year before.

Dollar volume was also down 2 percent to $270.3 million for the quarter.“
