Home sales in both periods ranged from $197,300 up to $252,300.

Average Sold Price Per Sq. Ft. Increases. The average sold price per sq. ft. increased by over $2/sf into 2010. And, it’s difficult to call a trend based only on 7 sales in 2010.

Median Sold Price Declines. Declines from $222,500 to $219,000 are shown for 2010, which is a -1.57% decline.

Marketing Time Decreased. Average days on the market (DOM) in 2009 was 185 versus 140 days in 2010. There had been a general oversupply of new homes in West Baton Rouge Addis market in 2009.

Yes, Pace Of 2010 Home Sales Has Slowed But! Yes, with only 7 sales as of 4/28/2010 and 27 sales in 2009, the pace of home sales is below that of 2009. However, of the 13 listings, 5 are pending or under contract and the average DOM for these 5 listings is 115 days. And, there’s a significant amount of new home construction taking place once again.

The Move To Build More Affordable Homes In This Market? I noticed as I was driving into Sugar Mill Plantation that there is a new “Garden Homes” section. Perhaps, with the somewhat difficulty of selling homes in bulk in the $124/sf range, the builders are moving to build smaller, more affordable housing in this market? Not Sure! There are no homes from this new section listed yet.
