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!

Congratulations To Our Latest Lake Lanier Home Buyers On Their Purchase Of 100 Ruby Lane On Thompson Creek In Dawsonville!

Congratulations To Our Latest Lake Lanier Home Buyers On Their Purchase Of 100 Ruby Lane On Thompson Creek At Lake Lanier In Dawsonville, GA!

What a fantastic example of a Lake Lanier A-frame cabin! Built in 1977 but completely restored recently, this home featured three bedrooms and two full baths and was located in the subdivision of "Sunshine" along Thompson Creek at Lake Lanier.

This beautiful property boasted 180° panoramic views of Lake Lanier's Thompson Creek and featured a level, grass-to-water walk to a single slip covered dock complete with party deck in a very deep water section of Thompson Creek with boat launch convenience and park nearby. One of the greatest attributes of the property was that the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers' survey property line was actually in the water at some points on this lot.  This provided for excellent lake views from most of the rooms in the home including the master bedroom! The sellers had even built a stone patio and rock wall with fire pit and chairs just a few feet from the water! There are a few properties on this lake in different price ranges that could be considered trophy properties. Folks, this was one of them!

The lot dimensions were approximately .454 acres with 50 feet of water frontage. The covered single slip dock was a beautiful, relatively new Martin dock built right in Gainesville, Georgia not too far from the home. It was fully loaded with electrical lighting, stabilization polls, and weather-proof decking! If purchased new, this dock would probably run in the $50,000 range!

We saw this home come on market and immediately notified our buyer clients so they could make a quick offer and get the home under contract! Final sales price on the home was $456,000. In addition, our buyers were able to negotiate the separate purchase of just about all of the furnishings located at the property!  Completely move-in ready and turnkey! Now that's the way to start off the spring season here at Lake Lanier!

Many thanks to Tony Schlich with Keller Williams Realty Atlanta Partners for his professional service in representing the sellers!  It was truly a pleasure having another experienced agent to work with in this sale!

Our Most Recent Lake Lanier Home Sale! See The Chestatee River From This Wonderful Lake Lanier Chalet!

We want to congratulate our clients who closed on their fantastic Lake Lanier home on Wednesday April 30th of last week. Located at 7725 Elm Cir. in Murrayville Georgia, this Lake Lanier home was located on a point lot in the subdivision of Mountain View Lake Estates.

Lake Lanier View From 7725 Elm Circle in Murrayville, GA. 

Built in 1982 this one-and-a-half story A-frame, chalet had three bedrooms and two baths. Two bedrooms and one full bath were located on the main level and a loft style bedroom with full bath was located upstairs. There was a large wall of windows facing the lake which provided an excellent long-range view down the Chestatee River towards Chestatee Golf Resort. With a wraparound deck and a full unfinished basement, this little A-frame was hard to beat for the money. Located on a .34 acre lot this property included approximately 162 feet of waterfront footage on Lake Lanier. Also included was a single slip, covered boat dock on very nice, deep Chestatee River waters.

Overall, this property was an excellent value at the sales price of $320,000! With the position of the house on the lot there is plenty of room to expand the footprint of the home, possibly enlarging the kitchen and expanding the decks. There is a small cove off the main body of the Lake along the right side of the property, and out back just an the enormous view of the Chestatee River.

We feel certain that this will prove to be a wise investment as Lake Lanier properties continue to appreciate over the long-term. Buying wisely means paying attention to the dirt first and the structure is secondary. This purchase was a prime example of picking a property in an excellent setting with a superb view and good Lake Lanier waterfrontage and depth in order to effectively resist drought conditions and dry weather patterns.

Lake Lanier Housing Market Report For First Quarter 2013! See The Latest Market Trends For Lake Lanier Home Sales!

We've been so busy lately that we have been delinquent in our duties to post the monthly Lake Lanier Housing Market Report.  The report provides a lot of detailed information on Lake Lanier home sales and the market trends.  Well, this morning I received a motivational email from a faithful reader, wondering if we had stopped publishing the report.  That hit home and was the motivation that I needed to get the research engines running!  After a few hours of homework, I can happily say that the report is updated,  back online and ready for your review!

Some of the most notable points in my research of the market, certainly would include the average prices of Lake Lanier homes sold still hovering in the $500,000 range, which is similar to 2012.  The number of home sales is slightly up from the same period in 2012.  So, all in all, the trend remains positive for Lake Lanier home owners.  You can view all of the details of our Lake Lanier Housing Market Report by clicking on the link below.  And remember, we are always happy to provide a free market evaluation of your home.  Simply call or email us, and we will schedule your initial property visit.
