Dutchtown Gardens Subdivision Geismar Dutchtown LA 70734 Housing Report 2012

Dutchtown Gardens Subdivision Photos Geismar Louisiana 70734 (5)Dutchtown Gardens Subdivision Geismar Dutchtown LA 70734 Housing Report 2012. Very nice gated development located next door to Dutchtown High School and surrounding a lake.

Generally, this report is based on the Elevent (11) 2011 home sales. The Average Sales Price in 2011 was $207,378, Median Sales Price $199,500, Average Sold Price Per Sq. Ft. of $112.25/sf, Average Days On Market of 125 Days with homes selling for 99% of listing prices, no weakness in pricing in 2011.

2012 Market. It does appear this subdivision has slowed somewhat as 36407 Dutchtown Gardens Ave is now pending after 231 days on the market and there remains approximately 5 to 8 lots left to build on.

One Sale So Far Into 2012. One 2012 sale in 2012, which is this home below at 36400 Callaway Avenue. This home sold at $120.27/sf or $225,720 for only 1,877sf, far above the typical sold price per sq. ft. of $112/sf in 2011. I believe this home was the “model home” for this development with many extras, the reason it sold for $8/sf more than average.

This is 16070 Venetian Avenue listed for $179,900 and Pending or Under Contract. The market or “buyers” were right on on this listing. It was listed at a very high $188,000 10/17/2011 or $126.43/sf for only 1,487sf. $188,000 for only $1,487sf in Baton Rouge is a very, very high price. The market or buyers balked and when the listing price was reduced to $179,000 or $120/sf, then the market acted with a purchase agreement.
