Nola area prices have surprisingly been steady even with Destroya at the helm. Some areas (West End, Broadmoor, Gentilly and parts of Metairie) seem to be coming down but others (Mid-City/Bayou St. John, Treme, Uptown/Garden District, Leonidas, Arabi and the parts of the westbank) are going up.

Northern Virginia- Have continued to rise. The market is the suburbs is red hot as people move out of DC proper. Nothing is staying on the market for more than a couple days.

Friend,

So long as interest rates stay low and lumber costs skyrocket, the cost of homes will increase.

Yours,

I haven’t checked the market in a while, but they are still building the hell out of new houses here in the 70005. They tearing down smaller houses all over to make room

People coming over from Lakeview? Finally noticed east Metairie is a carbon copy of Lakeview but with less crime, far less potholes and something to show for your tax dollars.

Insane increases. The last four months I haven’t had a day off. People have always been leaving blue states to come here but since the riots started happening it’s been insane. People that might have been two or three years out are coming now. Nowhere near enough inventory.

I know of two people that are in the process of moving from Lakeview to Metairie

I’m not sure where most are coming from but they are paying well over $200k for 50X150 lots.

With lumber prices up 30%, new construction says, "Hello". Fallen?? Fallen as in increasing.

ETA: The effect of a 30% increase in lumber prices: Adds $14,000 to the price of the median home in our market.

How’s the housing market around the Baton Rouge area going to be after Labor Day going into the fall? Is this traditionally a slower time of year or will this year be busier with lower interest rates?
