Southwood Home Sales Report October 2011

It's time for another look at Southwood home sales (the busiest neighborhood in Tallahassee). Currently, there are 46 homes for sale in Southwood in the Tallahassee MLS, and we are going to review the current status of this popular subdivision.

First of all, you can get detailed information on each sale from either the map below or the table at the end of this post (people who subscribe to the Tallahassee Real Estate Blog by email will need to click through to use the Map). Just click on the red dots on the map to quickly see sale prices, home sizes, and values.

Southwood Home Sales Prices

The real estate graph below makes it appear as if home prices are on the rise in Southwood. While it is a fact that the average home sales price in Southwood is higher this year, it does not mean that values are rising (more on this below).  The average sales price of a home sold in Southwood this year has been just under $283K, up 9% from $259K in 2010.

Southwood Home Prices Southwood Home Sales Values

Southwood Home Values Southwood Home Sales - New Versus Resales

When we break Southwood home sales down to new versus existing home sales, the truth is easy to see. The average cost to build a new home in Southwood has risen greatly this year, making the overall "average" appear higher. But looking at the real estate graph below, we see existing home sales values (blue line) are still on the decline. There are still hundreds of homes in Southwood that need to be sold, both in the Tallahassee MLS as well as the Shadow Inventory of Homes. Pricing pressures will not be going away in 2012, and we will see our sixth straight year of falling home values.
