Atlanta Real Estate News
Posted by Brian Sims on Monday, November 14th, 2011 at 5:29pm.As we approach the end of 2011, it is still a strong buyer’s market across Atlanta. Mortgage rates have dropped again since the summer and while prices are struggling to recover, certain properties seem to attract all the attention. We are always looking to grow our business, so if you or those you know are in need of professional real estate advice please feel free to give me a call.
So what’s the latest with home prices?
Home prices are actually up nearly 7% in the North Atlanta area around Buckhead and the number of homes sold is up more than 10%, which is good news. Smyrna and Vinings prices are still down more than 10% for the year, but there are a number of great homes pending sale right now, so I do expect the average price and volume to tick up slightly before December 31st.
By the way, home prices in December are statistically the lowest of the year, so if you’re considering an end of year purchase, there is no time like the present!
How do you stand out from the crowd?
Today there are more than 3,400 homes actively for sale across Atlanta and less than 500 will actually close this month, so how do you make your home stand out from the crowd? Price it competitively and make it shine.
“I recently listed a property on a Tuesday and by Friday we had multiple parties interested in making an offer. Over the weekend, I had another 3 agents call to ask if it was still available. On a side note, there were 10 other properties for sale in this neighborhood, so something made this one stand out and it wasn’t just the price.”
Give us a call. We would love to help you price your home right, make it shine and then market it to as many buyers as possible.
