Ascension Parish FHA Appraisers: Ronda Place Subdivision 2010 Home Sales Price Trends

http://www.ascensionrealestateappraisers.com/ – Ascension Parish FHA Appraisers: Ronda Place Subdivision 2010 Home Sales Price Trends. There were two (2) MLS sales and two (2) FSBO Sales in 2010. Overall sales prices are still increasing into 2011.

Ronda Place Subdivision Prairieville LA 70769

Home On Ronda Avenue

40228 Ronda Avenue Prairieville LA 70769

Solds In Ronda Place Subdivision from 1/2010 to 12/31/2010 revealed:

Average Sales Price: $157,950 ($144,967 in 2009)
Average Sold Price Per Sq. Ft.: $96.79/sf ($89.87/sf in 2009)
Median Sold Price: $157,950 ($149,900 in 2009)
Number of “MLS” Sales: 2 (3 in 2009)
Average Number of Days On Market: 37 (233 in 2009)
Low To High: $156,000 to $159,900
Number of Sold REO/Foreclosures Noted In MLS: 0
Current # Listings: 2, 1 Is A Foreclosure $116,900
Current Listings Prices: $116,900 to $199,900 or $75/sf to $81/sf.

ronda-place-price-trends-prairieville-la

The $116,900 listing on Aimee Drive has 1,566sf living area. The $199,900 lisitng is “contingent” or under contract with the buyer’s home waiting to sell and has 2,472sf living area.

LEGAL NEWS REPORTS 4 SALES. For Ronda Place Subdivision, Legal News reports four (4) total sales, two (2) FSBO Sales. Legal News reports that 17254 Eric Dr sold for $165,000 in February 2010. MLS history reports this home has 1,616sf 6/3/2 built in 1982 with a large 25×22 Workshop. So, this home sold for $102.10/sf.

Legal News also reports a sale of one of the smaller garden homes fronting Hwy 929 for $121,500 in November 2010, Lot 67-B. MLS History states this home to be 17230 La Hwy 929 having 1,200sf with 2 bedrooms, 1 bathroom and last sold for $99,900 in 12/2005. So, this home sold for $101.25/sf approximately. I use the word “approximately” because MLS uses the even “1200″ sf, meaning that the home might not even have been measured for the listing, which is a disturbing trend I’m seeing more of in Greater Baton Rouge Real Estate.

This is the Foreclosure Listing on Aimee Drive!

17212 Aimee Drive Prairieville LA 70769

Millbrook Subdivision Baton Rouge LA 70816 (2)

 

For the numbers above, one must keep in mind the sizes of the homes sold. In 2009, there were 2 homes sold averaging 2,103sf living area size. The 3 2010 solds averaged 1,831sf, 272sf smaller than the 2009 solds. Thus, it would make sense for the 2009 median sales price to be higher.

Baton Rouge Appraisers: Monticello Subdivisions Market Update For 2010 in 70814

http://www.batonrougemarketmetrics.com/ – Baton Rouge Housing: Monticello Subdivisions Market Update For 2010 in 70814

Monticello Sign

 

I recently completed 2 home appraisal assignments in Monticello Subdivision this week, both on Monticello Boulevard, and noticed these observations. There appears to be some decline due to REO or foreclosure activity. The Average Sold Price Per Sq. Ft. is down $6/sf and Median Sales Price is down $5,000 from 2009 versus 2010. AND, 5 of the 12 Current Listings are Foreclosures with more at least 2 more foreclosures that could be on the market later in 2011.

monticello-subdivision-baton-rouge-map

Solds In The Monticello Subdivisions from 1/1/2010 to 12/16/2010 revealed:

Average Sales Price: $138,580 ($154,573 in 2009)
Average Sold Price Per Sq. Ft.: $85/sf ($91/sf in 2009)
Median Sold Price: $145,000 ($150,500 in 2009)
Number of Sales: 15 (20 in 2009)
Average Number of Days On Market: 64 (96 in 2009)
Low To High: $82,000 to $169,000
Number of Sold REO/Foreclosures Noted In MLS: 3 or 20% of All Sales
Current # Listings: 12, 5 Are Foreclosures or 42% of All Listings
Current Listings Prices: $89,900 To $175,000

The 15 sales in in this very large subdivision in 2010 versus the 20 in 2009 reflects the current slowdown of this market post Federal Tax Credit Expiration. Without the tax credit, there doesn’t appear to be as much incentive to purchase a home. This slowdown in homes sales in a trend throughout the Baton Rouge housing market in latter 2010.

I recently completed a home appraisal assignment on Summer Drive in Merrydale Subdivision on an average 1,000sf home, in really nice condition, for this subdivision and noticed these observations. Actually, I’m reporting on ALL of the subdivisions in the Merrydale area state that “Merrydale” in this subdivision name. There appears to be some decline due to REO or foreclosure activity.

The 6 sales in 2010 versus the 14 in 2009 reflect the current stalling of this market post Federal Tax Credit Expiration. Without the tax credit, there doesn’t appear to be as much incentive to purchase a home. This slowdown in homes sales in a trend throughout the Baton Rouge housing market in latter 2010.

WHY WE RELY ON MEDIAN SALES PRICE VERSUS AVERAGE SALES PRICE?

Median Sales Price is the barometer by which the National Association of Realtors utilizes to report on national housing markets. Average Sales Price tends to take all of the home sales prices from the lowest, say $50,000, to the highest, say $1,000,000, and state the average of them all, sometimes skewing the numbers because of the extreme highs and lows. Median Sales Price tends to focus more on the middle of where the bulk of home sales prices are taking place. Generally, the Average Sales Price is going to be higher because it includes the extreme high sales prices in a given market. Fannie Mae understands the problem with using Average Sales Price and now demands home appraisers perform the 1004MC or Market Conditions form based on narrower “sub-market” parameters for comp search. This means that on a 2,000sf home, appraisers would be searching for comps with say 200sf below and above 2,000sf, say 1,800sf up to 2,200sf with similar ages and other similar characteristics.

Where Are The 2010 Ascension Parish Foreclosures Concentrated?

http://www.ascensionrealestateappraisers.com/ – Where Are The 2010 Ascension Parish Foreclosures Concentrated?

acensionparishreochart

The chart above represents the number of recorded Ascension Parish REO or Foreclosure Sales within the Greater Baton Rouge MLS as of 10/16/2010, with the exception of Manufactured Housing sales. GBRMLS Areas for Ascension Parish are 90, 91 and 92.

ascgbrmlsmap

 

2010 Foreclosures total 7% of sales YTD; 2009 Foreclosures totaled 6%, an increase of +1% since 2009. 5% of all Ascension MLS Listings are Foreclosures! Foreclosures are only moderately impacting this market.

AREAS 90-92 2010 FORECLOSURES. In 2010, there have been 68 solds. The vast majority of these foreclosure solds were “Rural” properties (10). In restricted subdivisions, foreclosures of note were in Ascension Trace (2), Autumn Woods (2), Lakes At Dutchtown (2), Manchac Harbor (2), Oak Terrace (3) and Porte Cochere (3).

Above $200,000, Both Solds and Current Listings. The number of 2010 foreclosures that sold above $200,000 has been 19 or 28%. Out of the 46 total REO MLS listings, there are 16 current listings above $200,000 or 35%.

Above $300,000, Both Solds and Current Listings. The number of 2010 foreclosures that sold above $300,000 has been 8 or 12%. Out of the 46 total REO MLS listings, there are 3 current listings above $300,000 or 7%.

There’s A Major “Caveat” with the numbers below! Based on a 7% REO sold rate, which does appear to be an indication REOs are only moderately negatively impacting this market. It’s also stated here that an article (The Landmines Within by Michael Tarabotto http://activerain.com/blogsview/930436/The-Landmines-Within ) stated that as much as 70% of REOs never make it into the MLS – Meaning that it might be impossible to know or state the exact # of competing REOs if they’re not being listed and that the foreclosure problem could be larger if up to 70% of REOs aren’t being listed. MLS is reporting 46 current REO listings for all Ascension MLS Areas out of a total 951 total listings. So, 5% of all Ascension MLS Listings are Foreclosures!

REO is “Real Estate Owned”!
