If you are new to our area and want to know where to reside in Tallahassee, you might want to explore where other people are living.
In the past, I wrote The Five Star Guide To Tallahassee Neighborhoods as an in-depth review of the most active neighborhoods in Tallahassee, so this report is merely an update to see where people are now choosing where to reside in Tallahassee.
Where To Reside In Tallahassee A study of our current residents is a great start in deciding where to buy a home in Tallahassee.

tallahassee subdivisions: 10% Of Homebuyers Are Right Here!
- 10/03/11 02:03 AM
If you are thinking about selling a home in Tallahassee, you might want to know where the buyers are most active and from where you will find your stiffest competition. Thus far in 2011, 538 Tallahassee neighborhoods have recorded at least one home sale, and 10% of those came from the 9 most active subdivisions in town.
The table above shows the nine most active Tallahassee neighborhoods based upon home sales this year, and you can see that some are doing better than their historical norms. Each year shows the total number of homes sold for the entire year, but … (0 comments)

tallahassee subdivisions: New Report Studies Values Now Versus Peak Of Housing Market
- 08/25/11 03:14 AM
More than 1,230 subdivisions in Leon County have posted a home sale in the Tallahassee MLS since January 2002, and today we are going to thoroughly examine the change in home prices and home values in the most active Tallahassee subdivisions.
When we post our Tallahassee neighborhood real estate reports, we calculate price and value changes by comparing the averages from the current year against the averages for each prior year. But today, I have been motivated by Bill Cobb, the top appraiser in Baton Rouge, Louisiana to get a little more focused on Tallahassee subdivisions, comparing recent averages to ones … (0 comments)

tallahassee subdivisions: Turnover Rates At Historic Low Levels
- 12/26/10 11:53 PM
In preparing for our Weekly Special Housing Report which is emailed to subscribers every Monday morning, I poured through a lot of data on Tallahassee Subdivisions in order to find out which ones had the highest turnover rate. To measure the turnover rate, I divided the number of existing home sales by the total number of homes in each subdivision.
In the real estate graph below, two important statistics are measured for each Tallahassee Subdivision. On the left axis, the turnover rate is shown, while the growth rates is recorded on the right axis. The growth rate is the number of … (2 comments)

tallahassee subdivisions: How To Pick The Right Neighborhood For Your Family
- 02/23/09 10:06 PM
I received a question from a reader that I felt would make a terrific topic for a blog post. “Joyce M.” wrote
We will be looking to buy later this year sometime and don’t want to over-pay. Property taxes are not low in Tallahassee. What are the best neighborhoods [safety, value, upscale] for homes $300,000-$325,000 range built after 2000 with gas fireplace, and about 2000-2300 sq ft; thanks.
As you can tell, this is not a simple “quick answer” type of question, and it parallels a question I received recently from a long-time friend who wondered what area of Tallahassee … (2 comments)

tallahassee subdivisions: Tallahassee, FL: Ox Bottom Manor Subdivision Report
- 02/03/09 05:08 AM
One of the most often discussed neighborhoods in our office and in conversations with buyers and sellers is Ox Bottom Manor in the Northeast quadrant of the Tallahassee real estate market. This popular Tallahassee neighborhood features homes which are typically 4 bedrooms and run on average between 2,000 and 3,000 square feet.
The northeast side of town represents roughly 50% of the homes sold last year in the Tallahassee housing market, and Ox Bottom Manor is nestled right in the midst of the northeast. I find that doing a case-study on Ox Bottom is often a good snapshot of the … (0 comments)

While the Tallahassee Real Estate Blog usually analyzes information about the Tallahassee real estate market, we also can tell from our traffic reports that many of our readers like to see what is going on by subdivision (or neighborhood). Today’s blog is just a very large table of all sales, listed by total number of recorded sales per year, by subdivision in the Tallahassee real estate market. The real estate report shows all Tallahassee neighborhoods which have had a sale in the past five years (this year through November) and is sorted by the most sales per neighborhood in 2008.

tallahassee subdivisions: Tallahassee, FL: The Top 200 Selling Residential Subdivisions
- 12/29/08 08:27 PM
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 … (2 comments)

tallahassee subdivisions: Tallahassee, FL: Neighborhood Home Sales Report
- 11/26/08 10:17 PM
Where are homes selling in Tallahassee? This is a question many of our homeowners are asking us as they consider putting their homes on the market. With buyer activity in the market slowing down to a 20+ year record low, many people feel as if their Tallahassee subdivision is the only one where homes are slow to sell. But that is not the case.
Here is a simple report showing the number of homes sold by Tallahassee subdivision over the pat twelve months (November 1, 2007 through October 31, 2008). This is the complete list as reported to the Leon … (0 comments)

tallahassee subdivisions: Market Snapshot - Adiron Woods In Tallahassee, Florida
- 03/07/08 11:34 PM
We get a lot of traffic on our Tallahassee Real Estate Website from people looking for information on specific subdivisions. One of the most actively "searched" subdivisions in Tallahassee is the Adiron Woods Subdivision. This Tallahassee neighborhood is a little more than two years old, and is located near the intersection of Mahan East (Hwy 90) and I-10, just off Walden Road.
Taking a quick peak at what is going on yields some interesting information that probably typifies best what is happening to much of the new home sales in the Tallahassee real estate market.
From the graph, we can see that the … (51 comments)

tallahassee subdivisions: A Market Snapshot of the Lakeshore Estates Neighborhood In Tallahassee
- 03/07/08 11:20 PM
During my most recent Tallahassee Real Estate Blog in the series of blogs on different Tallahassee Subdivisions, a reader asked if I could profile the Lakeshore Estates Neighborhood.
Lakeshore Estates is located at the intersection of Timberlane Road and Meridian Road and is an excellent example of a "Tallahassee Neighborhood." It is situated in a highly desirable location, yet the prices fall right on the median pricing line in the Tallahassee real estate market. I went to the Tallahassee Board of Realtors MLS and reviewed the most recent sales figures in order to create the following chart:
Here we see a graph that … (51 comments)

tallahassee subdivisions: At Home In Town 'N Country Estates In Tallahassee, Florida
- 03/07/08 10:32 AM
I was visiting my parents yesterday at their "new home" (they built it in 1987) and I got to thinking about the home in which I was raised. I believe my parents came to Tallahassee in 1964, a year before I was born, and ended up buying a home in Town 'N Country Park. Situated off of Old Bainbridge Road, between the Tallahassee Mall and Godby High School, Town 'N Country Park was a great Tallahassee neighborhood to grow up in. All the kids in the neighborhood played in the streets all day.
So I was wondering how home values were doing in … (51 comments)

tallahassee subdivisions: A Bright Spot In Tallahassee Real Estate
- 10/25/07 09:12 AM
Northeast Tallahassee - Inventory Levels Not So Bad
The Northeast quadrant of Tallahassee (Area 1 in the MLS) has shown to have the best response to the current market. It has been the least affected area in Leon County in terms of the number of homes that are selling, so I decided to look and see how each Subdivision was doing. Not surprisingly, many of its subdivisions were not doing bad at all, while many that still have new construction were a bit sluggish.
