2017 Oakhurst Real Estate Market Report

Oakhurst real estate market report 2017

Wondering how the Oakhurst real estate market is doing?  Are home values still on the rise?  Is this still a good time to sell or buy a home in Oakhurst?  Find out below in the latest edition of our Oakhurst Decatur home sales update!

HOME SALES

A total of 70 homes sold in Oakhurst in 2017.  This is down about 10% from 2016, as inventory levels are still very low in this hot, hot City of Decatur neighborhood.   One key factor that is driving home sales is new construction.   12% of the Oakhurst homes sold were newly built.

HOME PRICES

Thankfully one good thing did come out of having fewer home sales — it drove the average sales price up!.  In 2017, the average sales price was $665,000 – a $25,000 increase from the previous year.  We’ve seen larger spikes over the last 5 years, but even though home pricing may be leveling out, this is still a very strong real estate market.

* Oakhurst home prices ranged from $348,000 to $1,260,000 in 2017

* The median sales price was $622,500

* 12% of the homes sold were new construction
