Summer 2024 Housing Trends in the North Atlanta Suburbs

Curious about the latest trends shaking up our local housing market in the North Atlanta suburbs? You're about to get the inside scoop on just the data for single-family homes in some of my favorite Georgia cities like Canton, Milton, Cumming, Woodstock, and Dawsonville. Stick around because this month’s data is going to focus mainly on single-family homes.

What does this mean? Well, this month we are not including the residential attached homes like townhomes and condos and I’ve also excluded just land listings this go around.

Navigating the real estate market can be tricky, especially with lagging MLS data. But guess what? I armed myself with the most current information on active single-family home listings to give you the clearest picture of what we could see if we went to see homes today. Let’s get started, right now!

Just like I mentioned last month, with more competition out there, if you're considering selling, it's still a seller's market, but success hinges more than ever on strategic pricing and marketing.

If you are thinking about buying a home, keep in mind it is a big step, especially in this market, and having a skilled agent by your side is crucial to navigate the process smoothly and avoid costly mistakes. While sellers have agents to protect their interests, you need someone who will fight for the best price and terms for you.
