Slidell, Louisiana, Days on Market and List Price vs. Sales Price Review, 2009

March 15, 2010 by admin Leave a Comment

These charts contain date from the entire year 2009.

I also need to say that this chart includes the Cities of Pearl River and Lacombe to complement Slidell. This report could easily be called the East St Tammany real estate review. 🙂

30% of the homes listed in 09 sold in less than 30 days, but almost 1/3 took longer than 120 days. Ok but not great. In comparison to crunches many others are feeling these numbers I feel are good.

When you look at list price versus sales price the numbers here look good. Not more than 6% off of list price in 09. Buyers were able to negotiate a little but not too much. Sellers are able to stand firm on their asking prices.

Came across this in my surfings. I used to love this skit as a kid. Great entertainment.

Folsom, LA Thoroughbred Colt being weened from it’s Mother.

March 12, 2010 by admin Leave a Comment

I took these videos not to far from Global Wildlife Center, around Cranky Corner way. This yearling colt is being weened from it's Mother's side, and he is not very happy about it. He calms down without any problem, and really only acted up if she whinnied. Both of these videos are fairly short I think. Beautiful day and a beautiful horse, hope you enjoy.

If you are looking for a home or land in the Folsom, LA area, please contact. I live close by.

Covington, Louisiana, Days on Market and List Price vs. Sales Price Review, 2009

March 12, 2010 by admin Leave a Comment

These charts include date for the entire year 2009.

Before I get started I want to make sure I temper any statements here with the fact, the Covington year in review contains data which includes the Cities of Abita Springs, Folsom and Bush, and all the rural areas in between in St Tammany Parish. We did not feel it was necessary to break W St Tammany up into smaller markets for this review. Why do I say this? Well the numbers for Covington do not look as good as Mandeville, however you must take into account the larger area and different type properties. I do believe if we were to compare downtown Covington to Mandeville, the numbers would be more equivalent. However, this is called the Covington review, not the why are the numbers different than Mandeville review?

Less than 26% of the homes in Covington in 09 sold in less than 30 days, but almost 60% did sell in less than 90 days. The ugly number here is almost 33%, a full 1/3, took longer than 120 days.

Now the numbers here I think are ok. The list price versus sales price only range from a little over 3% to a little less than 6%. Even when a home took longer than 4 months to sell, Sellers were not having to give away the barn. The Sellers were only reducing their homes by less than 6% during 2009, which is not bad at all when you consider the overall economy. I am pleased with these numbers.

Mandeville and Madisonville, Louisiana, Days on Market and List Price vs. Sales Price Review, 2009

March 10, 2010 by admin Leave a Comment

These charts contain data for the entire year 2009.

When you look closely at this pie chart, you see less than 30% of the homes listed on the market in 09 sold in less than 30 days. Over 30% took longer than 120 days. A better note is over 60% of the homes sold in less than 90 days. The majority sell within a reasonable amount of time. At least in my opinion 90 days is a reasonable amount of time.

Regardless of how soon or how long it took you to sell your home in Mandeville in 2009, average reductions off of list price only range 4% – 6%. This low percentage in reduction of list price verses sales price shows the homes in Mandeville held their value in 09. A percentage will always be there, but the lower the better.
