Belle Chasse LA – Number of Homes Sold March 2009
Year to date, there have been 10 homes sold in Belle Chasse, compared to 23 at this same time last year. New and newer construction is moving much faster than older homes, with the homes sold in March all coming in at or under 7 years old.
For sellers of older homes to compete with these younger houses, they need to be updated to offer the same type of amenities that buyers in the area are looking for.

Belle Chasse LA – Average Home Sale Prices March 2009
The average home sale price in Belle Chasse for March was $388,066 (a reflection of the fact that these were all newer homes). Year to date, the average sale price is $257,670, significantly below the 2008 average. However, with the most active selling months just ahead of us, I would anticipate that the average sale price will increase.
An important factor to remember when selling your Belle Chasse home is that appraisers are reviewing comparable sales for the last 90 days only, which could have a negative impact on your value. If you are selling a unique property, it would be worth the $300-$400 to have it appraised before setting your list price.
I’m still recommending pre-inspections of homes as well – buyers are looking closely at condition and are not afraid to walk away from a property that needs a lot of repairs.
