National Real Estate Trends
The national real estate market is shifting towards balance. After years of rapid price growth and low inventory, the market is adjusting. High mortgage interest rates are causing some buyers to pause. As a result, sellers are reluctant to sell and lose their low-rate loans. Despite this, prices have remained stable in many areas due to the ongoing shortage of homes for sale. Many markets still have strong demand. This is especially true in areas with job growth and rising populations.
Statewide Snapshot: Georgia's Market
In Georgia, the story is similar but with a bit more activity. The state has a strong economy, affordable housing, and an excellent quality of life. These factors make it a good place to live and invest. Sales volume has dipped a bit since the pandemic boom, but median home prices in the state remain stable. New construction is easing the inventory shortage in some areas. However, it isn't enough to meet demand. Buyers are still active, especially when homes are priced correctly and move-in ready.
Metro Atlanta Momentum
