I was doing quite a bit of research this weekend and was focused on finding the top selling residential communities (subdivisions) in Tallahassee. With over 1,800 neighborhoods recorded in the Leon County Tax Appraisers office, there was quite a bit of information to be screened.
I pulled the top 200 selling neighborhoods in 2008 and used these as my group to study. Southwood home sales led all Tallahassee Subdivisions with 108 sales from January through November. In order to create a year over year study, I lopped off December sales from 2007, 2006 and 2005, thus making each year January through November.
As you might suspect if you are a regular reader of the Tallahassee Real Estate Blog, most communities in the Tallahassee real estate market have seen significantly fewer sales in 2008 versus the previous years. I was surprised to find 27 Tallahassee neighborhoods that showed zero to positive growth in 2008 versus each of the previous four years …. can you find them all? I’ll give you one freebee …. Bradford Manor was up 850% this year versus 2007, up 58% this year versus 2006, up 90% versus 2005, and up 111% over 2004.
