We have been keeping a close eye on Southwood home sales for several years, and I believe we might be experiencing a significant shift in this popular Southeast Tallahassee neighborhood.
Currently, there are 59 homes for sale in Southwood, and the composition of sale types is changing.
The graph on the right measures two important trends for existing homeowners in Southwood, the new construction trend as well as the distressed Southwood home sales trend.
These trends will tell us much about future home values in Southwood.
Southwood Home Sales Graph
When we break Southwood home sales down to “new” versus “resale,” we find a pleasant graph showing that both are seeing a rise in values. Had we not first seen the graph above, then the real estate graph below would have made us think that a real estate recovery has begun.
Distressed Southwood Home Sales
We can look at a division of Southwood home sales based upon whether or not the sales were “arms length” or “distressed,” and when we do, we something that is cause for concern and certainly reason to keep monitoring the growing trend.
The graph above shows that arms length home values are rising slightly, but distressed home sale values have plummeted. Why is this such a concern?
We can identify the following trends from the combination of all three graphs:
- New units are selling at higher cost (value)
- New unit construction is declining
- Arms length unit sales are declining
- Distressed unit sales are rising
- Arms length values are rising moderately
- Distressed values are falling fast
So what does this all mean? I suspect the many holdouts in the resale side of Southwood are no longer able to wait, and demand in Southwood has been being filled with new construction.
I will be watching to see if a rush of distressed properties hits the market (like we have been observing over the past 24 months). If this continues, it is likely we will see new construction come to a near halt while low-value distressed properties for sale fill the demand in the market.
