FHA remains the king of financing in Marrero real estate, with more than half of home buyers using this loan program that allows for lower down payments and credit scores. 

Sellers should be aware that there are some recommended changes to the FHA program for 2010 that may make it harder for buyers to qualify, reducing the number of potential buyers for their properties.  Now is the time to make sure that you are priced right to compete with the other homes for sale in your neighborhood.

Home prices in Marrero have been drifting slightly downward for the last few months, ending November with a year to date average of $138,562, down 11.04% from the 2008 average.  The extension of the first time home buyers tax credit into 2010 may help to keep sales steady, but will probably do little to impact prices with over 200 homes to choose from in the area.

John, a tear down :)  $24k is basically lot value in the majority of the neighborhoods over here.
