Baton Rouge Home Appraisal Trends: Prairieville Housing Market Update

http://www.batonrougerealestateappraisal.com/ – Ascension Parish Prairieiville La Home Sales Trends: Manchac Crossing 2005-2010 Home Sales Report

Manchac-Crossing-Subdivision-Entrance-Prairieville-LA (2)

 

Total # 2010 Sales: 6
Average Sales Price: $236,700
Median Sales Price: $233,500
Average Sold Price: $117.25/sf
Average List To Sale Price Ratio: 96%

One 2011 Sale $205,000 or $124/sf. It appears Manchac Crossing Median Sales Prices are continuing to Decline from 2008 highs of $242,750. Median Prices since 2006 have been $218,000, $219,950, $242,750, $237,500, $233,250 and now $205,000 in 2011. So, there was the rise in prices after Hurricane Katrina, then the deflating of the market!

CVR Baton Rouge REALTOR FAQ: How Does Cost Compare and Will It Help My Cash Buyer?

greater-baton-rouge-comp-cruncher-reportshttp://www.gbrcvrreports.com/ – CVR Baton Rouge REALTOR® FAQ: How Does The CVR Valuation Cost Compare To URAR 1004 Report? Will the CVR Help My Cash Buyer That Wants An Appraisal Before Closing?

Greater Baton Rouge Collateral Valuation CVR Report Site

I received these two (2) questions today from a local real estate agent after she read my CVR Video Press Release. This was my reply below.

Good questions and thank you for asking. I attached a 12 page Sample CVR Report based upon the desktop Pictometry aerial views of home. I’ll let you look it over to determine if it fits your client’s needs. A full conventional URAR 1004 Home Appraisal could be from 23 to 50 pages of work, depending on the complexity of assignment.

CVR DESIGNED FOR 2 TYPES OF INSPECTIONS: OFF-SITE & ON-SITE!

There are two (2) inspection options with the CVR report from an inspection point of view:

1.) A desktop report from aerial views online, no visit to home and no real photos (but 4 aerial pictometry photos). THIS IS THE FASTEST DELIVERED REPORT. Cost $150 to $175.

greater-baton-rouge-cvr-reports-pictometry

2.) A visit to the home with real photos taken by me and placed into report. This cost around $200. I may even measure the home and provide a sketch for my own peace-of-mind. THIS REPORT TAKES LONGER TO DELIVER BECAUSE OF THE INTERIOR INSPECTION.

cvr-full-inspection

CVR IS STRICTLY AN OPTION FOR URBAN OR SUBURBAN LOCATION, NOT RURAL LOCATIONS! IS YOUR PROPERTY RIGHT FOR THE CVR?

The CVR report requires 30 to 50 good sales/comps. CVRs reports are used in highly populated Urban and Suburban markets. As long as this home in question is located in a restricted subdivision and housing market with ample comps, the CVR should be able to meet your needs.

25 TO 30 DOLLAR FEE PER REPORT.

I have to pay the data service $25 to $30 per report I complete for the extra data these reports require. Standard data is $25 plus $5 for the Veros data for forecasting, IF Veros covers the Greater Baton Rouge adequately enough. I have performed many of these reports in class based on Greater Baton Rouge MLS data for training in Texas but have not completed one locally in town yet. I do have my first order scheduled this week.

Baton Rouge Real Estate Appraisal Video: Highland Road Housing Market Trends In 2011

Video Link is: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W_Y3eTRa_D8

In this video, local home appraiser of 20 years, Bill Cobb, points out trends observations from the Area 53 housing market, generally from Essen Lane over toward Country Club of Louisiana area.


This is a “sub-market” study of homes 2900sf to 3450sf, from 11-15 to 16-20 years old, from approx. $300,000 up to $450,000 range. This is not a broad study but a limited study of homes comparable to a 3250sf home built in 1994 in the Bluebonnet 70810 market. The observations here are not broad or general, but specifics to these parameters.

NOTE: Based on information from the Greater Baton Rouge Association of REALTORS®\MLS for the period of June 1, 2008 to March 6, 2011. This information was extracted on 3/6/2011.
