BROUSSARD / YOUNGSVILLE, LA (April 7, 2025) – The residential real estate markets in Youngsville and Broussard, Louisiana, presented notable activity in March 2025, reflecting differing dynamics in inventory, pricing, and buyer behavior.
Youngsville Market Overview
Youngsville’s housing market remained active in March, with a total of 227 properties listed for sale. Of those, 62 went under contract and 58 closed during the month. The average list price was $448,423, while the average sold price came in significantly lower at $351,652. This equates to a list-to-sale price ratio of 96.2 percent, indicating that sellers are accepting offers slightly below asking prices.
Homes in Youngsville are spending an average of 126.8 days on the market before selling. The absorption rate—the number of months it would take to sell all current listings at the current pace of sales—stands at 4.28 months, suggesting a balanced market that is neither strongly favoring buyers nor sellers.
Broussard Market Overview
Broussard, by contrast, had 111 homes on the market in March. Of those, 40 went under contract and 37 were sold. The average list price was $419,680, with an average sold price of $293,725. The list-to-sale ratio was stronger than Youngsville’s at 97.5 percent, suggesting tighter negotiation margins and greater demand.
Broussard homes sold significantly faster, with an average of just 80 days on market. The city’s absorption rate was slightly lower at 3.94 months, indicating a market that leans modestly in favor of sellers due to relatively quicker turnover and tighter inventory.
Key Takeaways
The data suggests that Broussard is currently experiencing a more competitive market environment, with homes selling more quickly and closer to their list prices. Youngsville, while offering a broader selection of listings and higher average property values, is seeing a slower pace of sales and more room for buyer negotiations.
Both markets reflect healthy activity as the spring season begins, but buyers and sellers should be aware of the specific trends in each area to make informed decisions.
