As I get ready to make my annual trip to West Point, I find myself checking the Tallahassee Board of Realtors Multiple Listing Service (MLS) to find out what is for sale in the Tallahassee real estate market.
The good news is that inventory has made a modest decline in the past few weeks. When I look at homes for sale in Tallahassee (single family detached homes, condos and townhouses), I find that the total inventory of homes on the market in Tallahassee has dropped to 3,217 homes. Here is how that breaks down:
Homes For Sale In Tallahassee
- 322 new construction, single family detached homes
- 1,845 resale, single family detached homes
- 334 new construction condos and townhouses
- 716 resale condos and townhouses
- 3,217 housing units for sale in Tallahassee
Of course I’m curious about pricing points, so here is what I have found about the average asking price by property type in Tallahassee:
Average Price Per Square Foot In Tallahassee
- New construction, single family detached homes - $150 per square foot
- Resale, single family detached homes - $140 per square foot
- New construction condos and townhouses - $198 per square foot
- Resale condos and townhouses - $121 per square foot
- Average Price per square foot for a home in Tallahasseee - $143
Now, square footage costs is only a general rule of thumb, so don’t go grabbing your calculator to see what your home is worth (especially since these are the asking prices of what is on the market, of which, over 60% will fail to sell!).
I guess the next logical statistic to point out is the average asking price by property type, so here it is:
Average Asking Price For A Home In Tallahassee
- New construction, single family detached homes - $320,691
- Resale, single family detached homes - $301,126
- New construction condos and townhouses - $266,413
- Resale condos and townhouses - $138,893
- Average asking price for a home in Tallahassee - $263,373
Now, to round out our Tallahassee housing data, the average home sizes are listed below:
