The above pie chart represents all the listings in the greater Covington area, and looks at the number of homes vs. the number of days the homes has been listed on the market.

=====

69 residential homes sales for the combined communities of Covington, Abita and Folsom for the month of June 2010. This is an increase over May by 15%, however I want to temper this with timely expiration of the First Time Home Buyers Tax Credit… Anyone who wanted to qualify for the 8K had to close on their property by June 30th, therefore We should expect an above average number of home closings, nationwide, in June.

Covington and Abita Springs, LA Residential Home Sales Review, May 2010

=====

55 homes sales is a significant drop in the number from last month. Some of the decrease, I feel, could be contributed to the 1st time home buyer’s tax credit, and the rush to beat the deadline.

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.

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

2 Day Old Baby Thoroughbred Colt, (different horse), Generations Thoroughbreds

February 28, 2010 by admin Leave a Comment

Foaled 2/25/10 at Generations Thoroughbreds, Hwy 450, Franklinton. This little girl is a beauty. Pardon my whistling, the baby was staying on the other side of the mare and I could not get a good shot of her, so… It turned out to work well I think. She is cute.

Thank You
