From Feast To Famine For Golden Eagle?

Real Estate Agent with Joe Manausa Real Estate 8508880888

After a huge November and December to end the 2013 calendar year, home sales have finally slowed in Tallahassee's Golden Eagle.

This popular neighborhood was grossly over-supplied with homes over $500,000, but a strong "year end clearance" has chipped away some of the excess of houses on the market in this Tallahassee golf course community.

Through mid February, 2014, there has been only 1 closed home sale in Golden Eagle in the Tallahassee MLS. This is a very sluggish (but not completely unusual) start of the 2014 selling year.

Homes Sold In Golden Eagle Plantation

 

Currently, there are 29 homes for sale in Golden Eagle Plantation,  and fewer than 4 are selling each month. Measuring at a buyer-favored 8+ months of supply, Golden Eagle's rate of sales rose last year as buyers took advantage of crazy low prices and historically low mortgage interest rates.

This abundance of supply will continue to bring great opportunities for homebuyers, and with interest rates still just above 4%, excellent buying opportunities still persist in this popular Tom Fazio golf course community.

The graph above shows that new home construction is still fewer than one home per month, while distressed home sales remain high at 1 per month. Consider this ...., more than 1 in 4 homes sold in Golden Eagle Plantation are short sales or foreclosures.

House Prices Continue To Struggle

The average sales price of homes sold in Golden Eagle Plantation is on the decline. I believe this is the result of two key factors: Rising interest rates and rising distressed home sales. Currently though, interest rates have begun to fall again, so we might start to see buyers increase their spending limits.

Home Values Not Budging

Real home values have not changed very much in Golden Eagle Plantation over the past 2+ years. While the blended average value is falling due to distressed home sales, arms length home sales have been fairly steady (at a 9 year low) since the beginning of 2011 (see the green line on the graph below).
