This has happened in my area and there are both short & long-term effects - from impacting home values to massive HOA litigation.

I don't know... I've never thought much about it or had any reason to look into this issue. But I would guess some major legal issues arise that impact the HOA/homeowners in a community.

We have a golf course in my town, with some very nice and expensive homes built there. I'd bet there would be multiple issues from those home owners, specifically. I'm not sure it would impact home values in the rest of the town.

How often do these close?  Seems like if they were to that point the neighborhood may already be in decline.

HMMMM... I have a listing on the edge of a golf course that is under contract with a buyer who does not play golf so... I don't really see that it would impact this location at all.  Now a neighborhood specifically built as a golf community is most likely a whole other story.

Prices will decline until an alternative plan is implemented, but prices may never recover to operational golf course days!

I have never seen a gold course close, but it could have a short term decline until it is re purchased, redone and then a sharp increase again

Short and long term effect. It a tangible asset of beneficial to the real estate in the community. What do you think the effect will be?

When it closes? Here in Florida, that is NOT unheard of. Thing is, before it closes there will have been long enduring issues that the locals are fully aware. The answer to the closes question is directly to what will occupy that vacated space. 10,000 townhouses may prove problematic. 3,000 estate homes will be a good problem to have.

Every owner in the effected neighborhood will be militant and vigilant to comprise property owner rights. Call in the lawyers.

It is major although the exact financial impact is evidenced by the market sales numbers when compared to before and after the close, provided all other market influences remain static.

A golf course that is not financially viable and located in a home-owner's association might consider providing membership to the public.  That has worked in some instances in this area.

If the golf course when out of business it is questionable that it added to the value of the neighborhood to begin with. We have seen golf course acreage developed into homes or preserved as open space. Bad for the golfers but there are not enough golfers to sustain the operations of the golf courses...so...evolution takes place.

No idea, haven't seen this happen.  My guess is that any added value or desireability from the proximity to the course will be gone.  This could cause prices to drop somewhat.  Questions as to the future of the land will arise.  Maybe some litigation, depending on how the course closed.

Somebody just asked this a while ago .... was it you?

I think that you have a location adjustment coming. You still have no neighbors behind you but they might turn the course into townhouses & wreck your jacked up ($) view.

I'd be pissed if it happened & it almost did but I sold the house way before the course was having financial problems.
