Goose Creek is one of many neighborhoods that sprung-up in the past 20 years on the east side of the Tallahassee real estate market. It features 3 and 4 bedroom houses in a zip code (32317) that is growing in popularity.
There are 169 houses built from 2002 through 2007 in Goose Creek, so you can expect this neighborhood to be a candidate for pent-up supply due to the combination of a slowed market intersecting normal family move-cycles. Roughly 150 families moved into Goose Creek in a 3 year period of time, thus we anticipate that now is the "normal" time to move for most of them.
