Baton Rouge Reports Nice Increase in Home Sales

While much of the nation is still in the real estate doldrums, Baton Rouge is breaking out of that sad cycle. Home sales in the area are on the rise, and that is great news not only for home sellers, but also for those trades that work in various home improvement fields. As homes are sold, the new buyers will often want to make changes to the property. From new flooring to adding new quartz countertops, Baton Rouge residents can get what they want to make their new home truly their own. But, none of this happens if homes are not being sold.
In a story published in The Advocate, we get a sense of just how large these numbers are in terms of home sales.

“Baton Rouge-area home sales increased by 8 percent in 2015, thanks to double-digit sales increases in Livingston and East Baton Rouge parishes. There were 9,687 homes sold in the nine-parish area during 2015, compared with 8,973 in 2014, according to figures released Monday by the Greater Baton Rouge Association of Realtors’ Multiple Listing Service.”
