Terrytown and Gretna LA 70056 | Number of Homes Sold | February 2010
Although the number of home sold dropped from January to February, year to date there have been 33 single family home sales, up from 28 at the end of February 2009. With 36 pending sales, it looks like the area is off to a good start in 2010. It remains to be seen if the volume will be sustainable after the first time home buyer tax credit ends on April 30th, so we will continue to track activity in the community.
Average days on market for homes sold in 2010 is now at 80. As older inventory is cleared out, I expect this number to go up since the average days on market for active listings is currently 143 days.
