Single-family homes took 31 days to sell on average — BUT 39% of the 30316 homes sold in less than ONE week.
The median number of days on market was only 14 (vs 12 days last year) and we would consider that a more accurate reflection of what is happening in today’s 30316 real estate market, as were a few factors at play. First, several new construction and/or home renovations were listed in the MLS before the homes were finished. Also, several homes priced a little too high when they were first listed and they sat on the market – some for almost a year!
MEDIAN # OF DAYS TO SELL A HOME (2014 – 2018)
If you are thinking of selling your home and it is priced at the fair market value, it will probably sell within the first month. If you own a charming, updated bungalow under $600,000 that’s near the East Atlanta Village or is located in Ormewood Park / Cabbagetown, it could easily sell in the first weekend with multiple offers.
ARE 30316 HOME BUYERS STILL PAYING TOP DOLLAR?
Without a doubt! In 2018, East Atlanta area homes sold at 98.8% of the asking price, on average. That means that buyers were able to negotiate an average of 1.2% off the asking price. To put this in perspective…
* On a $600,000 home, that’s about $7,000 off the listing price
* On a $300,000 home, buyers are negotiating about $3,600 off the listing price
If you are looking for a home in this popular Atlanta zip code, make sure you consult with your buyer’s agent who is very familiar with the Intown Atlanta real estate market.
