Discover Where Buyers Are Going For Luxury Homes

When buyers want to shop for luxury homes in Tallahassee, they get a wonderful array of quality that cannot be found in other real estate markets at comparable prices. For example, a luxury home in LA would cost several million dollars, whereas the same luxury home in Tallahassee can be found at prices starting at $400,000. Lets face it, there are not too many high end home buyers in Tallahassee, so they get a terrific assortment of homes to consider.

So let’s say that you are a buyer for Tallahassee high end homes and want to know where to shop in Tallahassee. Perhaps you want to drive around the communities (in your chauffeured limousine :) ) in order to get a feel for where you would like to live. With over 1,600 neighborhoods in Tallahassee, it might take you much more time than you would like. Lucky for you there is this handy guide for luxury homes in Tallahassee!

There are 27 Tallahassee neighborhoods that have an average home sales price exceeding $400,000 for the first 11 months of 2011. Led in activity by Golden Eagle Plantation or by Rosehill in average sales price, luxury homes in these neighborhoods are the best that Tallahassee has to offer.

Luxury Homes Tallahassee

As you can see by the vertical blue bars in the real estate graph above, most neighborhoods listed only had 1 home sell this year. This means that if you plan on buying a luxury home in Tallahassee, you need to work with somebody who knows all of the neighborhoods and the trends in home values. It is very easy to over-pay for a high end home in Tallahassee, and that would be a sad waste of money in this opportunity-filled buyer’s market.

Tallahassee High End Neighborhoods

I received a lot of feedback from yesterday’s blog about turnover rates in Tallahassee neighborhoods. The most common question related to subdivisions that were not listed in the post, such as this question from Gene Ward who wrote

Why wasn’t Highgrove included in this survey?

Since there are over 1,300 subdivisions in Tallahassee, my reports will usually only contain a subset of them in order to remain relatively short. Yesterday’s list of home sales in Tallahassee only included subdivisions that had four or more home sales thus far in 2010, so Highgrove and many others were not included. So today I prepared a report that would include Highgrove (for all those “nice people over there” Gene :) )

Tallahassee High End Neighborhoods

The following real estate graph shows all Tallahassee neighborhoods that recorded at least two arms length home sales this year and also averaged greater than $300,000. We look at these as the list of Tallahassee high end homes.
