Key Points
-
Another solid month of sales! At the beginning of the year, sales were off 30% from last year. During the last the months, the number of homes sold in this area of Louisville is only down by 10%. Clearly confidence is returning to the Louisville housing market. This area has been a little slower to recover as prices tend to exclude first-time home buyers. However, as more trade-up consumers enter the market, sales will continue to improve. Area 8 is a highly desirable section of Louisville and a good number of people are activiely looking to buy here.
- In these rapidly changing times, property valuation is critical and expertise is essential. Sellers need to find a Louisville real estate agent who can help them price, prepare, and promote their home correctly. Buyers also need a local expert who can help them find the ideal home and achieve a successful closing.

7 Comments on Louisville Homes ~ Area 8 Real Estate Market Report ~ August 09
Erik as usual you are doing a great job keeping everyone in your area up to speed on the latest Real Estate trends!
Your market reports are always clear and colorful.
Also, it sounds like your market is really beginning to move, which requires a truly knowledgeable agent like you to guide them through the buying and selling process.
Bill - Thanks. Hopefully it helps.
Christine - Things really are heating up. We aren't (and won't be) back to 2007 levels. But, I'm confident the worst is behind us.
You make the rest of us feel bad Erik! Ok, maybe just me....I need to get back on my market reports. Great job!!
Pretty reports :) That pool looks so inviting! Do you think there will be some last minute shoppers that may burn off some of that inventory?
Kristin - I have every confidence that your clients are well-versed on San Antonio market conditions.
Renee - I hope sales pick up. But, around here few first time home buyers shop in this price range. Most of these homes will be bought as 2nd or 3rd homes.
Erik -- a nice report and I hope that the market continue to show strength.
