South Lake Tahoe MLS Listings from $400,000 to $500,000

May 6, 2009

The South Lake Tahoe real estate market is very active in the lower price ranges, and is now picking up above $500,000. The $400,000 to $500,000 range is still one of the areas that is still seeing a limited amount of buyer activity.

Currently there are 463 single family home listings on the South Lake Tahoe mls. Out of the 463 listings, 72 are in escrow which is about 16%. There are 61 homes listed between $400,000 and $500,000. and 6 of them are in escrow which is only about 10%.

For the homes listed between $400,000 and $500,000, the average listing price per square foot is $275. So far this year there have been 16 houses that have sold in this price range on the South Lake Tahoe mls. The average price per square foot for the sold homes was $238. The median selling price was $427,000 and the average selling price was $436,250. There were only 4 foreclosures in South Lake Tahoe that have sold in the $400,000 to $500,000 price range. With only 4 of the 37 South Lake Tahoe foreclosures that have sold so far this year being in the $400,000 to $500,000 price range, this range has a low percentage of the foreclosure market.

I have chosen 4 homes on the South Lake Tahoe mls between $400,000 and $500,000 that I think have a good value.

1802 Amador is a short sale listing in Montgomery Estates offered at $429,000 which comes to $175.25 per square foot. This home was previously sold for $670,000 on 6/23/05. Montgomery Estates is one of my favorite areas because it is close to Heavenly Valley Ski Resort and not far from Stateline and the Casinos. There are a lot of larger and newer homes in this area. 1802 Amador is a 2448 square foot 3 bedroom, 2.5 bathroom, 2 car garage home with upgrades and is in good condition.

3503 April is not a short sale or a bank owned foreclosure, but has an outstanding location near Heavenly Valley. This home also backs to U.S. Forest Service Land. This 2146 square foot 5 bedroom, 2.5 bath, 2 car garage would make a great vacation home or a vacation rental. Offered at $495,000, this home is has a list price per square foot of $230.66

1542 Ormsby is a bank owned foreclosure listing with a great meadow view location. This bank owned listing is a 4 bedroom, 2 bath, 1 car garage, 2323 square foot home priced at $419,000. At only $180.37 per square foot, this meadow and mountain view home has great potential to be upgraded.

709 Gardner  is a newer (1999 construction) 3 bedroom, 2.5 bath, 2 car garage home that has been rarely been used and is in great condition. This newer home is priced at $429,000 and is $210.09 per square foot.

For buyers in the $400,000 to $500,000 price range, there is a great selection of listings on the South Lake Tahoe mls. With not a lot of competition in this price range, buyers will have a chance to negotiate a good price on a home that works for them.

Stateline

March 16, 2009

The Stateline area on the California side is one of the most convenient locations in South Lake Tahoe Real Estate. It is the location that draws most buyers to this area. The Stateline area is the closest area to the Casinos out of all of the areas on the South Lake Tahoe mls. Heavenly Valley Ski Resort can also be accessed from Stateline by the gondola at the Heavenly Village.

The houses in the Stateline area are very diverse. Most of the houses on the South side of Highway 50 are older and smaller cabins with some remodels. The prices for these cabins usually run from $250,000 to $400,000.  The houses on the North side of Highway 50 can vary from smaller cabins to multi-million dollar lake front homes. The area between the Lake Side Marina and Highway 50 is known as the Lakeside subdivision, and offers private beach access passes with home ownership. just West of the Lakeside subdivision is Tahoe Meadows. Tahoe Meadows is a private gated community with lake view and lake front homes. The Tahoe Meadows area is one of the most sought after areas in South Lake Tahoe.

The Stateline area makes an ideal location for a second home buyer, or an investor looking for  vacation rental property. If you are looking at homes in South Lake Tahoe, make sure to include the Stateline area.
