Tchefuncta Country Club is a very nice place to live. So many trees, the homes set back on large lots, very peaceful and serene. A great place to go for a walk or a jog.
Included in this video taken by Skip and our unknown tennis player :), are pictures of the marina and portions of the golf course. A great place to live in St Tammany Parish.

Tchefuncta CC. What a great and beautiful place. 18 holes of golf, huge lots, many, many trees and wildlife galore, all along the Tchefuncte River. On top, we are going to throw one of Covington's finest locations. Directly South of Highway 21 and I-12, a stone's throw from a whole bunch of commercial real estate, including grocery, retail shopping, restaurants, and only 3 miles on a straight shot to St Tammany Parish Hospital. A fine location which will hold its value, to some degree, by land value alone. In this video, Skip, and a person whom shall remain unknown, ( a serious tennis player :) ) were driving along in front of the Country Club and tennis courts on a gorgeous day. Gives a really good view of the some of the amenities of Tchefuncta Estates. There is also a good bit of information about the subdivision on the video. For even more information on real estate available visit www.TchefunctaHomes.com.

Northpark is a really good subdivision. Great location, convenient, nice water views, pool, tennis court. Large homes on large lots.
I have been told I need to smile more, show off my pearly whites, please pardon me for it was a really hot day, (you can hear the cicada whining across the pond), and well… heat is a bit of a deterrent to smiling. "No excuses durnit!" Lol. I will also admit I can be very stern sometimes. A fault I am working on. 🙂

For a FREE Home Evaluation,
The graph above, (feel free to click to enlarge) illustrates a 3 year review of real estate activity for the City of Covington, North of I-12, East of Hwy 190, and West of Hwy 59. Major subdivisions in this area include; Crestwood, Tammany Hills, Arrowwood Estates, Kings Forest, Hollycrest, Southwind, Covington Meadows and more. This graph tracks the number of new, active, and sold homes, as well the average sales price, on a month to month basis, from March 2007 through February 2010.
First, the number of active listings (green) is down about 30 of over 160 homes from 3 years ago. My calculations equate this disparity to an almost 20% reduction in active homes on the market. This is significant because as the inventory of homes decreases, values will level out and begin to rise as demand surpasses supply.
When we look at the average sales price (yellow) over the last 3 years, we definitely see a decline in values. Being of generous mind I would say a little over 10%. I also know the numbers get even more confusing as we get closer to 2010, due to the fact they are all over the place. High and low. This bouncing as we get closer to present day is, I feel, a direct result of the low number of sold homes (blue) we have experienced for the last year to 18 months. Less than 10 sales per month recently. Darn near a 50% reduction from 3 years ago. Due to this low number the abnormal sales (the 80 / 20 rule applies here) are having more of a direct effect and skewing the numbers, making them bounce on our graph. I want to reiterate, less than 10 sales per month. If you are selling, we need to talk.
Lastly the number of new homes for sale (red) coming onto the market each month has decreased over the past 3 years. I like the fact this number is decreasing. Supply and demand again. The fewer the homes, the smaller the inventory, the greater the value, hence demand, of the available supply.

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.

28 is less than what I was expecting. I would have to check last months numbers but I think 28 is down from January.
