South Lake Tahoe neighborhood home values: Black Bart, higher this year than last, 14.7% off Black Bart market high.

We though it would be interesting to track South Lake Tahoe, CA neighborhood home values over time. As the chart above indicates, here are the median sold prices from today to 2003 for Black Bart, a smaller neighborhood with characteristically few home sales.

 Black Bart Housing Values :
Home values this year to date are $191,500, or 84.2%% higher than they were for all of 2010, but this is based on only 3 homes sold. Better news for home buyers who might be thinking in taking advantage of better prices, and historic low interest rates: Black Bart home values are 14.7%% lower than they were at the Black Bart market high in 2009.

Compared to the median sold price of all South Lake Tahoe, CA home sales this year, the Black Bart median sold price is $141,000 higher, or 51% more than the median sold price ($277,500) of all South Lake Tahoe, CA neighborhoods combined.

We think it important to note that with such few sales, averages and median sold prices are heavily skewed by higher, or lower sales. In the case of Black Bart this year, that number is abnormally higher (see all Black Bart sales here to see what we mean).

 Black Bart Housing Demand :

The chart above indicates housing demand, or the number of homes sold in Black Bart by year since 2003.

What we think was encouraging about 2010 demand for all of South Lake Tahoe neighborhoods combined is it was higher than any other year since the market high in 2005 (153 sales more than our low of 2008).
