EVAN’S MONTHLY MARKET SNAPSHOT

Hi guys, it’s Evan! I’m currently seeing about a 4-month supply of inventory, which tells me we’re back to a more balanced market—very similar to what we saw prior to 2020. In many ways, it feels a lot like 2018–2019 again, where negotiation is normal for sellers, but there are still solid opportunities on the buyer side.

Homes that are well-prepared, strategically priced, and properly marketed are still selling at or above asking price. On the other hand, the “low effort” listings just aren’t performing like they used to. Today’s market clearly rewards preparation—staging, strong pricing strategy, and attention to every detail matter more than ever.

From the buyer side, increased inventory means more options, so buyers aren’t rushing decisions unless a home truly stands out. The properties that are move-in ready and show well are still moving quickly, while homes that are bare minimum or poorly presented tend to sit longer.

With interest rates around the 6% range now becoming the new normal, I’m seeing buyers being more selective and intentional with their decisions. At the same time, we’re starting to see a return to more stable, normal appreciation in home values at around 3%.

Overall, I believe the Atlanta market has worked through its correction phase and is transitioning into a healthier, more sustainable cycle—one that creates opportunity on both sides when approached with the right strategy.
