Pensacola Real Estate News Subdivision Report For Logan Place In Northwest Pensacola

This article provides a Pensacola real estate market report on the Logan Place subdivision. If you are interested in seeing any homes in the Logan Place  subdivision, or any other homes for sale in Pensacola Florida, please feel free to  Contact Me for assistance. All of the homes pictured on this page were for sale at the time this article was published.  

There is no map available for Logan Place, as it is a brand new subdivision. However, I clipped a map from the area and indicated where Logan Place is on the map by the red thingy. There are many vacant lots still available in Logan Place, and the homes that are currently built are extremely beautiful stucco homes, both in contempory and two-story styles.

Although not common knowledge, I have learned that the builder, Adams Homes, is offering a $10,000 price reduction to buyers on existing homes in Logan Place. This offer is for a limited time (I don’t know exactly how long this offer will be in place. Maybe through April, but don’t quote me on that. You would be better off calling me and letting me see what kind of deal I can get for you.)

Pensacola Real Estate News - Price Appreciation in Mayfair Subdivision

This article is written as a compliment article to the Mayfair subdivision report. In that report, I describe the Mayfair subdivision in detail. Since every home owner or buyer wishing to buy a home in Pensacola Florida is concerned about appreciation value, I thought providing these reports would be useful for my readers interested in Pensacola property values.

The table shows property appreciation rates in Mayfair since 1998. The Pensacola MLS data prior to 1998 is not available, and only the last few months of 1998 are available.  

 Mayfair_Appreciation-a

Analysis of the table: Mayfair is a very affordable subdivision. You can purchase many homes in Mayfair and have a monthly payment that is right around the rent you would be paying in a similar home. Thus I believe Mayfair homes will hold their value well, even in a declining market. Note that home sales in Mayfair peaked in 2005 with 76 homes sold, and is at a low last year with only 37 sold. There are values in Mayfair that any renter should consider purchasing, instead of throwing money away on rent year after year.

Homes in this price range are selling much faster than homes in higher price ranges. There will always be buyers looking for homes in this price range. Also note that this market downturn has only brought down the values in Mayfair, on average, by 4.8% from the previous year. This is a very small percentage when compared to other areas in Florida.

Mayfair is a great neighborhood for first time home buyers or for investors looking to build a portfolio of rental properties. If you are a handyman and like to fix up homes yourself, you can find some very good deals on fixer uppers in Mayfair.

Mayfair is called by several different names depending on where you look, including Mayfair, Oakcrest, and Carriage Hills. This report includes the area delineated on the map, since it is not clearly defined as to where one area starts and another ends. 

Mayfair is located in the northwest part of  Pensacola.  It is not within the Pensacola city limits. Mayfair is accessible from Fairfield Drive and  Mobile Highway. It is convenient to the Pensacola Naval Air Station, Saufley Field Naval Base, and downtown Pensacola. Most other popular Pensacola locations can be reached in a relatively short amount of time from Mayfair.

Mayfair_Map

Mayfair is a neighborhood with very affordable homes. Many homes are the older cinder block style homes built in the 1950s and 1960s. If you are looking for an affordable home that has been remodeled and upgraded, Mayfair always has some of these homes for sale. If you are in the market to get a very inexpensive home and fix it up yourself, Mayfair can accomodate. Mayfair also has many properties that are rentals, making it a good neighborhood for investors or those who need to rent for a while before buying.


Information on travel times provided below is approximate and will depend on traffic and time of day.
