SATSUMA — A year after floodwaters invaded about 20,000 homes and businesses in Livingston Parish, the real estate market is bouncing back.
Brian Andrews, commercial real estate consultant and assistant director of the Real Estate Research Institute at LSU, said the market in the parish has shown itself to be “surprisingly resilient.”
The average price of a newly built home in the parish increased from about $191,000 to $195,000 from June 30, 2016 to July 1, 2017, according to data from the Louisiana Multiple Listing Service.
