Anything new on market? Should be some good deals and my tailgate group is looking for 4-5 deals. Houses or condos.

Real Estate in Oxford is not going to fall much, if any.

Don't state anything logical or hopeful to me right now, I'm melting and need this. Thanks.

There's a brand new neighborhood being built next to mine off of old Taylor. No idea what the prices are on the houses but all the ones they have framed are two story easy 2,300 sq ft. Every year there are like two or three houses for sell in my neighborhood around 120k. I live in Carrollton.

Bargain, if true.

The secret is out on Oxford - snow birds have taken notice too and are moving that have no ties to Ole Miss. Short-term football decline won't diminish it.
Your investment is safe.

Believe it or not, one huge draw for people from the Upper Midwest is the crappie fishing in Enid, Sardis, and Grenada lakes. Those are probably three of the Top Ten crappie lakes in the country. And, it's easy to find a condo for rent in the spring semester, opposite of football season.
It's hard to find a hotel room in Grenada in Feb, Mar, April. And it's all Minnesota, Wisconsin, Illinois tags in the parking lots.

A retired couple from New York just moved in a couple of months ago and I asked them why and the gentlemen is really into fishing. Apparently there are a lot of things to do for retirees around here that I didn't even knew existed.

Lots of good options depending on yours needs.
Just get on zillow. Spring/early summer are the sellers' seasons, buying sooner rather than later is advised. Feb/Mar is about when the late summer/early fall homes have bottomed out and are looking to unload.
We're moving for work in Oxford in June and have been looking/working with realtor the last 6 mos. We offered last week and close in May.
We wanted more house and acreage without paying for a higher price of dirt, so focused just outside of Oxford. But, lots of options inside Oxford as well. Just depends on preferences.

In other news, our home is just outside of LaFayette Co and in the Panola Co school district.
I will have a 9th grader, 6th grader, and 1st grader.
I've read mixed reports on the Batesville schools and South Panola.
I have been told there is opportunity to get them into Oxford city or Lafayette Co schools.
For any from the area, what is the opinion on school systems for those ages? Private school is an option, but we're not super religious folks, so I don't know if it would be a good fit.
Thoughts?

If there is anyway to get them into Oxford/Lafayette Schools, I would strongly push for that. I went through SP(graduated in 2006) and I was totally unprepared for college. Took me 2 years to finally know how to take notes and study, not just cram facts before a test like I had throughout my time at SP

Key parties are the rage for those who were young from the late 1950's to late 1970's. How do you think some of you were born?

I just bought a house here. Ole Miss plans on hitting 30k in enrollment sooner than later, and Oxford is projected to hit 40k residents in the next 10 years. I can't imagine property doing anything but going up for the foreseeable future regardless of football. As long as Ole Miss remains a popular destination for out-of-state high school graduates and retirees, as well as Mississippians looking to take advantage of one of a handful of economic bright spots in the state, homes should be a solid investment.
