http://www.zacharylouisianarealestate.info/ – Zachary LA Market Metrics: 2008-2011 Pointe South Homes Sales Report. I recently completed an appraisal an an 1,800sf 5 year sold home in Pointe South Subdivision and made these discoveries. The Pointe South market itself is generally performing better than competing home sales in Zachary as a whole.

For Example, the GBRMLS Chart for Pointe South itself below shows a continuing upward direction for Median Sales Prices. This MLS chart for Pointe South shows the 4 solds in 2011 have increased the Median Sales Price to $259,450, a substantial increase over 2007, 2008, 2009 and 2010 when the Median Sales Prices were $234,000, $230,000 and $248,000. However, the second MLS chart below shows All competing solds since 6/2008 and a correction downward since 5/2010. Because Pointe South itself is performing well, no declining markets adjustments were applied.

The Chart below shows a correction since May 2010 for competing homes in general.

NOTE: Based on information from the Greater Baton Rouge Association of REALTORS®\MLS for the period of January 1, 2008 to May 16, 2011. This information was extracted on 5/16/2011. YES, permission was granted by GBRMLS to use Subdivision Price Trends Chart Report!

http://www.zacharylouisianarealestate.info/ – Zachary La Real Estate Minute: Windsor Place Subdivision 2010-2011 Report. With a marketing time period or average days on the market of only 31 in 2010 and 39 in 2011, clearly the market wants more of this housing! Since 6/1/2010 in Zachary and excluding Windsor Place home sales, the average days on market has been 140 days for other builders!

Metra Area Home Builder, DSLD Homes, has found a sweet spot in the Zachary market! In approximately one year, DSLD has filled up the first filing with new homes…new homes the market likes and wants at affordable pricing! This is the same company, or partners, that purchased approximately $10,000,000 in lots in Ascension Parish in the past two years! DSLD is meeting a need in the Greater Baton Rouge housing market by building larger homes locals can afford!
