Manchac Harbor is a subdivision located in Prairieville, LA which features homes in both the new construction and re-sale market segments that are generally priced in the $300's.
The subdivision is located off of Hwy 42 approximately three miles from Airline Hwy. It featurs homes mostly in the French Country architectural style.
The following market analysis is based upon data extracted from the Greater Baton Rouge Association of Realtors MLS database. The data extracted were for detached single family homes sold between January 1, 2003 and February 29, 2008. Current inventory was set at the time of data extraction.
We can see from the chart above that home prices have continued to rise although no sales had yet been recorded by 2/29/08 to see if the trend continued.
Despite the Concept Development fiasco which stalled home sales in the 3rd filing of the subdivision and impacted 2005 home sales, we can see that unit sales have been relatively steady selling about two new homes every three months.
As elsewhere in the parish, this subdivision suffers from an oversupply of new homes priced over $350K possibly creating opportunities for a savvy home buyer.
Although homes in the 2500-2999 living area range accounted for nearly half of 2007 home sales, the current inventory of these homes represents almost eleven months supply if 2008 new home sales become similar to 2007 home sales. As previously pointed out, however, there were no sales recorded for the year as of 2/29/08.
If you have any questions about this analysis, if you would like additional information or you'd like to discuss buying or selling a home then I'd very much like to speak with you.

The Sherwood Forest Subdivision is one of Baton Rouge's established subdivisions with most homes being 30-40 years old. The subdivision is located off of Sherwood Forest Blvd. between Old Hammond Hwy. and Florida Blvd.
This post provides and analysis of the real estate market in that subdivision. The analysis is based upon data extracted from the Greater Baton Rouge Association of Realtors MLS database and encompasses data for detached single family dwellings sold between January 1, 2003 and February 29, 2008 as well as active listings at the time of data extraction.
The following chart tracks unit sales in the subdivision. We observe that home sales have slowed to near historic lows for this subdivision.
We are just entering the peak selling season so unit sales should increase substantially.
While year-to-date absorption rates are lower than in previous years, I'd expect to see absorption rates grow as we enter our peak selling season to at least the levels recorded in 2003 and 2007.
Here we can see that prices have grown to historically high levels and appear to be holding. A home in this subdivision sells for an average of $82 per square foot of living area.
While homes, on average, are currently taking longer to sell than in the year immediately following Hurricane Katrina, the average home is staying on the market under 80 days.
