East Baton Rouge Parish Quarterly Sales By Zip Code Q1 2010 versus Q1 2011 Accurate Valuations Group

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.

Zip Code 70739, the Central or Greenwell Springs market, showed a +16.2% increase in Average Sales Prices AND +5.6% in Average Sales Price Per Sq. Ft..

Baton Rouge Appraisers: Monticello Subdivisions Market Update For 2010 in 70814


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

Monticello Sign

 

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.

monticello-subdivision-baton-rouge-map

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.
