We are finally seeing some movement in Belle Meade with pending contracts and actual closed sales.  Amount of inventory remains untouched but homes that come up on the market are moving quickly, as evidenced by the 2 sales from last month.  Pricing disparities will depend on the obvious:  condition, size and location and the not so obvious: street within Belle Meade, architecture and home distribution.  The average lot in Belle Meade is 5,900 SF, so any time you have a bigger lot, that will affect price, as will homes with 3 or more bedrooms.

Real-time market stats for 33138 suggest a slight Buyer’s Advantage,

Home sales have begun exceeding new inventory. This is a Buyer’s market so prices are not yet moving higher as excess inventory is consumed. If the tightening continues and the market moves into the Seller’s zone, we may see upward pressure on pricing.
