Arms Length Home Sales Still Rule Tallahassee Housing

The percentage of home sales that are “arms length” are on the rise recently, even as the total number of home sales continues to lag near the bottom of the housing market in Tallahassee. We define arms length sales as ones where the buyer and the seller are meeting on equal footing (or simply not a distressed home sale).

I have taken a look at home sales going back to the beginning of 2010 and graphed arms length versus non arms length home sales, and each month has the corresponding “non arms length percentage” shown as well.

Arms Length Home Sales In Tallahassee

Non Arms Length Home Sales

Roughly 22% of the home sales in July were non arms length, which is far lower than the 42% that we saw in January. The one-year trend (not shown) is still on a slight rise, but if the last two months are any indicator, maybe we will see this coming down in the near future.
