Clear Lake Texas Real Estate - Brookwood Subdivision Neighborhood Statistics

Brookwood in Clear Lake has 904 single family homes with an average sales price this first quarter of 2009 of $259,400.  The average dollar per square foot is down slightly this year by $1.85 representing a 2% drop.  Bear in mind this reflects only a 3 month time span. 

Also the average home sold in Brookwood was 3,004 square feet as compared to 2,943 last year.  Smaller homes typically sell for more in terms of dollar per square foot.  I did not factor in one or two story for either year. This could have a pronounced effect as well. 

The homes in the  Brookwood subdivision were built by Perry Homes, David Weekley Homes and Village Builders.  The average lot size is just right at 10,000 feet with the average home built there of 3,000 feet.  Homes range from 3 bedrooms and 2 baths to larger 5 bedrooms and 3 and one half baths. 

Brookwood homes typically have either a 2 car garage or in some cases a 3.  It's not uncommon to find extended garages there as well.  Some with 5 or 10' extensions.  One of the big attractions to Brookwood is the woodedness of the community.  Is that a word?  It's got trees, alright?!  Seriously though, our area is lacking in trees.  Seems you have to go to Kingwood or the Woodlands to find those. 

Homes were built from 1988 to 1994.  

This information is straight out of the Houston MLS.  Also keep in mind that 3 months is a short period of time. 

Families really tend to stay in their Brookwood Homes longer than normal.  The average for Clear Lake is around 6.5% meaning six out of every 100 homes are sold each year. Brookwood homeowners stay even longer.  Over the last 3 years, the average turn has been 3.7%.

Clear Lake Texas Real Estate - Bay Knoll Subdivision Neighborhood Statistics

Bay Knoll in Clear Lake has 660 single family homes with an average sales price this first quarter of 2009 of $181,633.

Looking at the figures, it's easy to think that my calculations are off since the average sales prices are extremely are less than 1% different. The reason for the higher dollar per foot prices in 2009 stems mainly from smaller homes being sold during that time frame. The average square footage of homes sold in 2009 was 2,394 compared to 2,524 that same time last year. Bay Knoll in Clear Lake has 660 single family homes with an average sales price this first quarter of 2009 of $181,633.

This information is straight out of the Houston MLS. Also keep in mind that 3 months is a short period of time.

One of the statistics we've heard for years is that people tend to move every 5-7 years. Not in Clear Lake! I have real estate friends in many markets who tell me their turnover is 15-20%. We Texans (there, I gave it away, yes I was born and raised here), tend to stay in our homes a very long time.

Families really tend to stay in their Bay Knoll Homes longer than normal. The average for Clear Lake is around 6.5% meaning six out of every 100 homes are sold each year. Bay Knoll homeowners stay even longer; less than 4% of the homes sell there each year.
