The Value of Investing in Baton Rouge Real Estate

 
Email this article
 Printer friendly page

Louisiana’s state capital hasn’t traditionally been known as a hot market for real estate investment. That is until Hurricane Katrina changed everything. When the hurricane hit New Orleans, many residents were forced to relocate to another part of the state, region, and sometimes even the country. Baton Rouge real estate was the next best thing to New Orleans for those who were misplaced by the hurricane. Only a little over 80 miles northwest, Baton Rouge was an easy safe haven for those seeking shelter for the storm. For many what was meant to be temporary shelter ending up becoming a permanent residence.

The average home price for Baton Rouge real estate is only slightly over $154,000. This is good news to buyers and especially investors. The price is over $60,000 less than the national average for home prices. What’s even better about Baton Rouge real estate is that it has been experiencing a higher rate of growth since the hurricane. Investors seeking to invest in Baton Rouge real estate have to be smart when playing in this market, as it can be risky.

It is hard to judge what will happen to Baton Rouge real estate once those who are seeking housing as a result of Hurricane Katrina have all settled. Without a steady flow of people moving into the area, it can be difficult to sustain profits from investing in Baton Rouge real estate for extended periods of time. Those who are seeking to invest in Baton Rouge real estate should get in and get out of the market as quickly as possible.

The rates for Baton Rouge real estate are currently experiencing an 18.30% growth rate. At the least this growth rate will continue for the next three to six months. While it might not seem like a very long time, it is definitely enough time to make a profit through well-educated investments. If at all possible purchase homes as close to the market value as possible. This is the best chance at receiving a sizeable return from the purchase and subsequent resale of the house. 

Once you have purchased a house for resale, make as many enhancements as possible for as little money as possible to increase the value of the Baton Rouge real estate. After you have placed your Baton Rouge real estate on the market, be careful not to let it stay on the market for more than three weeks, as this will make the property seem unattractive. While Baton Rouge real estate is a worthy investment right now, it is not the best for those who are seeking a get rich quick type of investment.
