Franklin TN Real Estate
January 2012  Market Trends


Franklin TN Real Estate is usually the most reliable and successful of all of Middle Tennessee. Though the numbers can vary from month to month, the huge swings from year to year do not usually happen.
The number of homes closed in the month of January is down somewhat in Franklin, but we believe that the number only reflects the Resale Market. New Construction in Franklin is up for the first time in several years.

Franklin TN Real Estate - Founders Pointe 2009 Market Report

Founders Pointe is one of the few subdivisions that continues to not follow the trends here in Middle Tennessee. Last year we posted that their 2008 sales were strong and that EVERY home that was listed in 2008 SOLD. There were no expired or withdrawn listings. That's amazing for a neighborhood that size.
Here we've charted 2007, 2008 and 2009 so you can see how prices and sales have changed over the last couple of years.

Franklin TN Real Estate - River Landing 2009 Market Report

River Landing continues to ride a roller coaster with their prices going up and down each year in an attempt to get themselves stabilized. It doesn't help that one year the homes in the front of the subdivision sell and the next year those, larger and more expensive, in the back sell.
River Landing also suffered some of what I call the Nissan effect. That's where the Nissan employees moved here from Southern California in 2006. Many of them sold their million dollar bungalows and were able to pay cash … (2 comments)

Franklin TN Real Estate - Founders Pointe Fall 2009 Market Report
Sales in Founders Pointe are down dramatically over last year. In 2008 19 homes sold in the first 9 months. In 2009 just 10. The good news in this is that prices have held well and in 2008 there were NO expired or withdrawn properties. That means that everyone who put there house on the market sold it. Could it be that with the current economy that the homeowners in Founders Pointe are just more content to stay put?
 
Founders Pointe has always been a popular neighborhood. Parents … (3 comments)
