http://www.southpointappraiser.com/ – Denham Springs South Point Subdivision Least and Most Expensive Home Sales In 2010

It’s almost the halfway mark into 2010, June. So far into 2010, what were the lowest and highest home sales prices? In South Point in 2010, there have been 19 sales from $120,200 up to $198,500.

LOWEST HOME SALES PRICE IN SOUTH POINT IN 2010

The lowest sales price was at 23938 Teakwood Dr, a home I inspected for an REO or Foreclosure Appraisal. This home sold 2/19/2010 for $120,200 or $81.77/sf. It has 1,470sf living area with 3 bedrooms and 2.5 bathrooms.

HIGHEST HOME SALES PRICE IN SOUTH POINT IN 2010

The highest sales price was at 23750 Rosemont Dr. This home sold 5/28/2010 for $198,500 or $81.42/sf, the price reported in MLS (see corrected price below). It has 2,438sf living area with 4 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms and an expensive “Gunite” swimming pool. NOTE: The seller paid $6,000 in concessions or had to pay the buyer $6,000 to buy their home from them. Because the seller received $6,000 less at the closing table than $198,500, the actual sales price that an appraiser will use is $198,500 minus $6,000 for $192,500 or $78.96/sf. The GBRAR MLS reports gross sales price without correctly and automatically deducting seller paid concessions. However, appraisers do deduct seller paid concessions and now FHA is very wisely implementing new rules to strictly limit seller paid concessions on their deals.

http://www.southpointappraiser.com/ - Denham Springs FHA Appraiser Report: Per MLS Data, South Point Subdivision Foreclosure Rate Appears To Be Rising!

The MLS Data Chart Below Shows That From 1/1/2007 to 12/31/2009, there were 7 REO or Foreclosure Sales out of 187 total sales, or a 3.74% foreclosure rate.

Per MLS Records, A 3.74% REO Rate doesn’t appear to be an indication that REOs are negatively impacting this market.

HOWEVER, It’s also stated here that a 2009 article (The Landmines Within by Michael Tarabotto
http://activerain.com/blogsview/930436/The-Landmines-Within ) stated that as much as 70% of REOs never make it into the MLS. MLS is reporting TWO (2) comparable REO listings. However, since it’s possible that 70% of REOs and/or Sheriff Sales never make it into the MLS System, it’s almost impossible to know exactly how many competing REOs there really are out there. Clearly, the only way to know the exact number of sold foreclosures in South Point since 1/1/2007 is to sift through the Legal News records, which would take hours to accomplish.

In The Map Below, Realtytrac.com is showing 11 Current Foreclosures (Pre-Foreclosures, Sheriff Sales, Bank Owned) on Teakwood Dr, Springhill Dr (2 Properties), Sandlewood Ct, Rosemont Ave, South Point Dr (2 Properties), Wellington Ave, S Park Ln, Snowdon Ave and Sunny Brook Ln. This is a higher rate than South Point has experienced in the past. 11 Current Foreclosures helps validate the point made above. While MLS is only reporting 2 current MLS REO listings, there are actually 11 or 5.5 times more than MLS is reporting.
