In this report, we will look at average home prices, home values, and home sizes in Southwood, as well as a table of the most recent 1,000 closed home sales in Southwood.

For the real estate graphs found in this report, you will find the number of closed home sales for each year (red columns, measured on the left vertical axis), and an important real estate statistic shown in blue (measured on the right vertical axis).

The graphs and the closed sales table will be continuously updated into the future (meaning bookmark this page if you always want to know the current status of homes in Southwood).

Southwood Home Prices

Average home prices in Southwood are down just over 4% in 2019, but you might be surprised by the conditions that have caused the decline. The average sales price in Southwood in 2018 is $340K, and as you’ll see in the full report below, it’s not because homes are getting cheaper.

Average Home Price

Activity in Southwood is robust. Currently, there are 54 homes for sale in Southwood and 24 (44%) already have contracts with buyers.

Southwood Home Values

Average home values in Southwood have risen nearly 6% in 2019, which would be staggering if we did not do a thorough investigation of what is occurring in Southwood.

Average Home Value

The average value of a home sold in Southwood this year is $162 per square foot, the highest annual average on record. Unfortunately, this is less due to appreciation and more to do with the fact that many of the sales are small, new construction homes. Read the commentary below the size graph below to understand how this is impacting home values.

The Difference Between New Home Sales And Existing Home Sales
The Difference Between New Home Sales And Existing Home Sales
The Tallahassee real estate market continues to suffer from a decimated inventory that forces multiple buyers into bidding wars over each new listing that hits the market. Hands down, bar none, this is the best time to sell a home that I’ve ever seen in my near 30 years experience selling homes in Tallahassee. There simply are not enough homes for sale for our normal market demand. That’s right. Demand is not the highest I’ve ever seen, but supply is the lowest on record. The reduced supply of homes is due

Southwood Home Sizes

The average home size sold in Southwood falls in a range of 2,100 to 2,600 square feet, but smaller homes have been dominant thus far in 2019.

Average Home Size

The 118 homes sold in 2019 have averaged 2,080 square feet, far lower than what we’ve seen in the past. Smaller homes, when all else is equal, will generate a higher price per square foot because the large expense of land, kitchens, and bathrooms are divided into a smaller footprint. In other words, don’t believe that the large homes in Southwood have risen 4.6% in value in 2019, we’re just seeing smaller-than-usual homes selling first this year.
