August - Bexley Real estate - Columbus Real Estate Update

September 10th, 2007 categories: Bexley

The summer in Bexley wasn't bad.  21 Homes sold in Bexley in August compared to 23 in July and 26 in June.  So, the big summer months saw 70 homes exchange hands in Bexley from June 1 to August 31.

In August, the least expensive home was a 792 sq ft home on Allegheny with two bedrooms, one bath and a finished basement for $100,000.  It's small, but it counts, it's Bexley Schools, it had a home warranty, new windows and a 120 ft lot.

The most expensive home that sold in Bexley in August was a 4256 sq ft 4 bedroom, 3.5 bath brick 46 year old cape on 1.23 acres on South Columbia for $1.1MM.  This home came on the market 373 days ago at $1.15MM. 

August's 19 other homes that sold in Bexley averaged:

a mere $152.43/sq ft and 2239 sq feet on average

a short 87 days on the market

$341,248 or 95.9% of the last list price

A 2^nd floor 2 bed, 2.5 bath Dawson Place condo with 2023 sq ft sold for $550,000 last month.  Still some left if you're interested, condos fees at this unit were listed at $200/mo.

My favorite Bexley home that sold last month? Probably 255 S Drexel.  For various reasons I've always liked that home and was surprised when it didn't sell in 2004 when it was listed at $639,000.  It sold for $670K last month after a mere 57 days on the market. They'd redone the kitchen since the last time I was in it and it looked great.  I always wonder about Drexel Avenue homes.  Should they take a hit for being on a busy street?  They always seem to do well.  What's your thought?

2250 E Broad sold for $500,000 after coming on the market in March at $650,000.  For good reasons though
