Lake Lanier Real Estate Today! The Early Read On July Lake Lanier Home Sales!

Today in Lake Lanier real estate, we are taking a preliminary look at Lake Lanier home sales for the month of July.  The early reporting as of this morning shows 20 home sales for the month, with average sales prices in the mid $500,000 range.  These are some pretty good numbers, and a strong indicator that sales are continuing to trend in a positive direction here on Lanier.  We'll wait til the middle of this month to make a final call on July's numbers, as it may take a few more days for all of the sales to be reported.  Nevertheless, these early numbers look encouraging.

Lake Lanier Home Sales July 2012

We continue to actively seek new property listings both on Lake Lanier and in the surrounding areas.  Recently, we have received a number of requests to list homes, and we are now processing these requests.  In today's market, home sellers and real estate agents are tasked with completing a mountain of real estate forms with detailed property information and historical details.  This sheer volume of paperwork is forcing us to stage the process of listing in the following steps:

1. Listing Agreement Completed & Signed
2. MLS Data Forms Completed & Signed
3. Seller's Property Disclosure Statement Completed & Signed
4. Request For Keys & Assignment Of Lockbox
5. Initiation & Order Request For Professional Photography

It is not uncommon for these forms and processes to take a number of days to complete.  So be sure to plan ahead if you are contemplating putting your home on the market.  Remember to put your home in the best showcase home selling and staged condition before we order photography.  We love listing showcase homes on and around Lake Lanier!
