These are some of Louisville's most desirable and sought after communities. It gives an overview of where the subdivisions are located and the price range and what the neighborhood has to offer, such as clubhouse, pools, tennis, golf courses and country clubs available in these communities located in East Jefferson County.

Shelbyville Rd to Lake Forest, Country Club w/ Arnold Palmer Golf Course, Community Lodge with swimming pool, tennis courts, walking trails, soccer field, Home prices $250,000-$1,000,000

As I mentioned before, I think corporate relocation owned properties are hidden deals in this market. Usually in good condition, not much work needed and relo companies willing to take a hit to move the properties.
Another potential area for excellent real estate deals in this market are new construction executive style inventory homes. I don't have specific knowledge of what builders might come off of the prices, but I think there is potential to negotiate.
For example, Longwood is a great subdivision in Goshen. Its proximity to the schools is excellent and it has a community pool, tennis courts and clubhouse. Very impressive. As of today, there are 24 homes for sale in the neighborhood. Of those 15 are new construction ready to go. The new construction homes are price from $499,000 up to $770,000. Some of these have been on the market a year plus closing in on 2 years. Also, only 2 homes have sold in Longwood this year according to the mls, so if my math is correct, there is about 10 years worth of inventory on the market right now. Ouch. It would make sense that is a builder had an offer from a ready, willing and able buyer, they might not mind coming of the price to move some of the current inventory.
If this makes sense to you and you are looking to move to the Goshen area and want to find a deal, give me a call at 502-807-5648 or send me an email at info@familymoves.com
Glenoaks & Moser Farms have much to offer. Located in the Northeast Jefferson County and Oldham County, these subdivisions benefit from the substantial growth around the Springhurst Towne Center, The Summit, and Old Brownsboro Crossing Retail/Office developments.
In addition to shopping convenience, Glenoaks also has memberships available at the Glenoaks Country Club. This offers an 18 hole golf course, junior Olympic size swimming pool, wadding pool, tennis courts and clubhouse with a restaurant open year round. There are also leagues and social events throughout the year. Also, right now if you join Glenoaks, you are also a member and have golfing privileges at the Polo Fields Country Club. Both are owned by the same group, so 2 for 1.
If you are moving to the Louisville KY area, be sure to put Oldham County on your list to visit. Crestwood, Pricspect, Goshen, Lagrange, Pewee Valley and Buckenr are wonderful small towns that are at Louisville back door.

Looked at sales in the neighborhood over the past 2 years and the average sales price has been right at $340,000. Could be a good deal for someone looking to get in to Oldham County, but right at the edge of Louisville.

As I have mentioned in my last few posts, I think there are deals to be had with corporate relocation properties. Many times the homes are in move in condition and can be bought at below market prices. The owners have transferred and they have taken a buyout from their company and it is now up to the relo company to move the house. They do not want to sit on it and can afford to take a bit of a loss to get it out of inventory.
Here is a link to homes for sale in the Louivsille area that have a relocation company involved. This link is good fo several days, but if it has expired, email me at info@familymoves.com and I will get you an updated list.
This house was originally listed at $374,900, last time it sold it transferred for $355,000. I had folks that would have done a full price contingent offer, but the relocation company would not do a deal contingent on the sale of the buyer's house. So, a ready willing and able buyer came along and pick it up for $311,000. It closed this morning. Why I like this comapred to a short sale or foreclosure, the house is in move in condition, you don't have to replace carpet, the furnace, update kitchen and baths. The seller's were not in a distressed situation, they were just transferred and the relocation company has deep enough pockets to get the house moved under market value. Let me know if you or anyone you know is lookingh for a deal and I will see if there are any relocation properties that might work. Email me at info@familymoves.com.
