One In Four Home Sales Is A Distressed Property
The newest data has just arrived for home sales in Tallahassee, so I figured now was a good time to update the Tallahassee Subdivision Report. While I do this report every month, this will be the first time that I separate the "arms length" sales from the non arms length sales.
Just as a reminder for readers who have seen our earlier blogs on arms length sales, these are which are freely entered into by parties who don't have a special relationship or control over one another. An arm's length sale is indicated by the fairness of price, conditions, and other terms of the agreement. For example, an agreement between relatives or sales involving a deal on the side may not be considered an arm's length sale because they may not reflect the true value of the deal.
Most Active Neighborhoods Have Distressed Property Sales
As you can see from the real estate graph below, most of the top 20 active neighborhoods in Tallahassee have their fair share of non-arms-length home sales.
Tallahassee Subdivision Report - August 2009
Every month we post the Tallahassee Subdivision Report, but this month we did so with a twist. Sales in each subdivision were broken down into "arms length" and "non arms length" sales.
