Lake Lanier Real Estate Sales Trends...Let's Check The Home Sales For May 2015!

Well, it's been a very busy Monday morning, but we thought we'd take a few moments just to check the Lake Lanier real estate market trends for May 2015. We have been incredibly busy this year. As a matter fact, so far this year we have surpassed all of the productivity that we had last year, and last year was a pretty good year!

Here's a short summary of what we see in the marketplace for May 2015.

  • 19 Lake Lanier waterfront homes sold
  • the average home sale had four bedrooms three full baths and one half bath
  • the average build date of the homes sold was 1989
  • the average original list price was $523,871
  • the average list price of homes sold was $508,405
  • at least some closing costs were paid on the majority of transactions by the sellers
  • the average sales price of the homes sold was $486,079
  • the sales price to original list price ratio was 93.65%
  • the average total days on market was 99

Not too bad of a month! However, if you look at our Lake Lanier housing market report online you'll see that 19 home sales in the month of May is a drop-off from the months of March and April 2015. We're not sure what caused the slowdown, but we sure hope it's not a new trend. There are currently many potential Lake Lanier home buyers searching the lake for their dream waterfront home. If you have a home on Lake Lanier that is waterfront with a dock and you are considering selling, please contact us and we'll be happy to do a free comparative market analysis and an estimate of the valuation on your property. Inventory has been pretty tight all year long. Now is a great time to list your home, as we are in the middle of the summer selling season and the market is still pretty strong!
