I never saw a for sale sign there the three years I was at LSU. Suddenly five houses are up for sale.

That tends to happen when they move into the neighborhood

Someone a few months back sold one of the ones that needed a full renovation in less than 24 hours for what I'd guess was full price. They saw the opportunity and jumped.
Same thing happened on my street when I sold. Got $13/foot more than the last sale 2 years ago and a full price offer in 3 days and three more houses went up in the next 2 weeks.

Real estate market is great right now. They could be selling to upgrade.

People are demolishing the old shite houses on the lake and putting a beautiful mansion where the crap once stood. While I am not sure that's as feasible on LSU Ave., that area is seeing some revitalizations. Someone just bulldozed and built a house on that lot on the corner of Cornell and West Lakeshore. Sadly, the new house looks like shite, too.

This is 100% accurate. People are paying insane prices in that area right now. Buying houses at full price just to get the property. I honestly don't know where people are getting the cash. I know Baton Rouge has its share of Ballers but how many million dollar plus houses can one area bear?

They are sick of that trashy family around the corner building treehouses.
Posted on 5/15/15 at 7:38 am to Tingle
Sick of the city always ripping up the road to fix their previous frick ups.
Posted on 5/15/15 at 7:39 am to Tingle
older people downsizing homes? Getting triple what they paid for that house years ago?

I really hope that the Baton Rouge real estate market isn't heading the way of the New Orleans real estate market.

in what manner are you referring ot? BR is already pricey as frick
Posted on 5/15/15 at 7:44 am to Tingle
4 lanes is inevitable - houses on LSU Ave will be devalued once word gets out of construction..
Posted on 5/15/15 at 7:46 am to Tingle
In 4 weeks there'll be 1 more sign added to the mix 
Well technically it's on Highland Rd. but College Town none the less

Pricey compared to what? Gonzalez? I would kill for BR real estate prices.

BR is right up there with NOLA. I don't get the insane real estate prices for a college town the size of BR. Look at cities across the southeast similar in size to BR, they're usually way cheaper price per sq ft.

upgrade or downsize.... a lot of those owners are older and dont need houses that size
