There’s nothing like looking at data to try to discover a trend…I’m not a statistician, but I can look at the Providence High School area real estate market data for the the last 10 years and see that home buyers in Charlotte highly value buying a home for sale in the Providence High School zone of South Charlotte NC. Take a look at my graph below. You will see that home sales near Providence High School in Charlotte averaged a sales price of $339,394 in 2012, just slightly off the sales prices in 2009 – which is when the housing/mortgage crisis really hit the South Charlotte area. Actually, the 2012 real estate sales in this zone finished stronger than this average, but this graph represents the whole year. While most areas in Charlotte marked a continued decline in sales prices each year since the peak year of 2007, the Providence High School area real estate market remained relatively strong.
