Brookhaven in Indian Trail NC--2010 Real Estate Market Update

Brookhaven in Indian Trail NC—2010 Real Estate Market Update

Brookhaven is one of Indian Trail NC’s most popular neighborhoods.  Located adjacent to the well-regarded Antioch Elementary School, Brookhaven is close to shopping, I-485, and historic downtown Matthews NC.

Brookhaven’s 7000 square foot amenity center and walking trails serve approximately 500 homes.  New construction by John Weiland Homes is still available in Brookhaven, although the neighborhood is nearing completion.  Three sections offer homes from 3000 square feet to over 5000 square feet.  Basement homes are also available in Brookhaven.

How did the 2010 real estate market in Brookhaven compare with the 2009 market in the neighborhood?  The table below shows median values for several characteristics of the marketplace.  Forty two single family homes sold in the neighborhood compared with 55 in 2009.  Median prices dropped in 2010 while the median size of homes remained the same.  This drop in price per square foot is likely the result of the builder dropping prices for new construction.  Median days on market increased nearly three-fold while the median list-to-sale ratio remained the same.
