Last fall I wrote a post about Rosemount’s Evermoor Development describing the different neighborhoods that make up the 560 acre development. It has proven to be one of my most popular entries and has encouraged me to focus more energy on providing more information to homeowners on very specific markets.
Evermoor 2010 Home Sales
Through June 5, 2010 there have been 24 closed transactions year to date in Evermoor. That might seem like a good number until you look a little closer at the details -
| Type of Sale | Number |
| New Construction | 14 |
| Bank Owned/Short Sale | 6 |
| Traditional Seller | 4 |
There are quite a few new homes being sold, especially in the Glendalough neighborhood being built by Lennar which has seen 10 new home transactions in 2010. Glendalough has quite a bit more space to build in and should be active with new homes for the next couple years. The other 4 are in the new DR Horton called Westport which has almost filled all of their empty lots.
Four of the bank owned sales are also really new homes as the remaining unsold Bard’s Crossing Condominiums are bank owned and accounted for 4 of the sales.
Only 2 traditional sellers have sold homes for more than $350,000 in 2010 including the highest priced sale at $563,000 which was my listing. Both of those listings were in the Westmeath/Drumcliffe neighborhood. There are a large number of existing owners that paid a lot more than $350k for their homes. As a point of comparison, there are currently 40 active listings in Evermoor and 25 of them are priced above $350k. Of the current 40 listings 2 are bank owned and 5 are potential short sales.
There are currently 7 pending transactions, including 2 new homes and 3 townhouses in the Talcott Glen neighborhood.
Potential Going Forward
Evermoor is still the premier development in Rosemount and one of the nicer ones in all of Dakota County. Its overall size, integrated trails & parks along with newer homes and unique neighborhoods sets it apart as a place to live and raise a family. The following video gives you a brief feel for the types of homes you see in each of the neighborhoods of Evermoor -
Recent road improvements, new shopping/dining choices and additional planned public transit options are all helping to shape Rosemount as a great place to live.
As an Evermoor resident I help homebuyers and sellers in Rosemount to get the most value from their Realtor when selecting someone to work with since I know the neighborhoods and home values so well.
