Southwood Subdivision Home Sales Report

As one of the most active neighborhoods in Tallahassee, the Southwood Subdivision is important to monitor even if you do not live there. We always have to remember that the overall state of the Tallahassee housing market is influenced by all the homes for sale in our area.

Currently, there are 59 homes for sale in Southwood (listed in the Tallahassee MLS) and 9 of them are new construction and surprisingly "only" 20% of the homes listed are distressed properties. With all the lis pendens filed in Tallahassee in 2010, we are expecting significantly more than 20% of of our sales to be distressed properties.

Often times, readers are curious why I list relocation among the distressed properties. This is something that I started doing a few years ago when it became apparent that lenders were going to become very active in the disposition of real estate. As more of inventory of homes for sale are institutional in nature, we can certainly view homes with relocation contracts in a similar light as REO properties held by lenders.

Home Values Stabilizing In Southwood

As more distressed properties are entering the market, it is getting more difficult to produce historic trend reports without including a mile of caveats at the bottom of each graph. When trying to ascertain value trends (are home prices rising or falling?) in Southwood, we normally do not include sales that are not arms length, and the following real estate graph is the output that we receive.

Questions About Homes Sales In Southwood

The graph above does not include new construction sales, foreclosure sales, short sales, pre-foreclosure sales, nor reo property sales. Additionally, I am concerned about the growing supply of homes in Southwood that were recently offered for sale and failed, but have not yet been relisted for sale. What are recently failed home sellers in Southwood choosing to do? Can we expect a deluge of properties to hit the market in Southwood? If the market does not recover as fast as they would like, will Southwood see a run of strategic defaults?

I'm not picking on Southwood, I just don't have the time to analyze every neighborhood in Tallahassee, so I focus on the larger ones. Southwood has been very active with new construction in a market that is reeking of over-supply, so you can bet I will keep this Southeast Tallahassee neighborhood on my current and future watch lists.

Joe Wrote The Book On How To Sell A Home Today

Joe Manausa wrote the book on how to sell a home in the digital age, you can find it hereWARNING: The Internet & digital marketing systems have changed the way sellers need to market a home for sale. It's not about getting a home sold anymore, it's about getting a home sold and netting the most money from the sale.

To do this, a seller needs to hit the digital market hard in a coordinated effort that alerts ready-buyers (all at the same time) to ensure buyers understand they are competing for the right to buy the home.

While it only takes ONE buyer to sell a home, it takes MULTIPLE BUYERS for the seller to bid the property up to its highest value in today's market. You see our full explanation about how to sell a house here, or you can buy the book and really get into the nuts and bolts of selling a home in the digital age.

Get the book that explains it all, in a manner that is understanding to all, even technology neophytes. It's available on Amazon, a trusted source for consumers.
