Historic Count Of Active Lake Lanier Waterfront Home Listings Shows Incredibly Low Inventory Of Homes For Sale!

Historic Count Of Active Lake Lanier Waterfront Home Listings Shows Incredibly Low Inventory Of Homes For Sale!

Based on information provided by FMLS, the Lake Lanier, waterfront home listing inventory is lower than it has been in the last five years!  If you are an active buyer, looking for your spot on the lake, you likely are experiencing a tough time finding a home that works.  Alternatively, if you are considering selling your home, you could be looking at a strong market with the least amount of competition from other lake homes that are for sale. This makes conditions for quick sales and multiple offers on strong properties a real possibility.  Check out all of the data on our SlideShare presented below!

Follow-Up To Our April 23 Post - Lake Lanier Waterfont Homes For Sale...Could The Market Be Slowing? Are Prices Peaking?

Follow-Up To Our April 23 Post - Lake Lanier Waterfont Homes For Sale...Could The Market Be Slowing? Are Prices Peaking?

Here's a quick follow up to our post from Sunday April 23, 2017. We ran the same search in FMLS this morning, in order to see if the results had changed in any significant way.

The similarities are striking! Here are the results from today's search...

1. Only 235 Lake Lanier waterfront homes listed as "Active" and for sale. Again, that is not much inventory for a strong Spring market. The April 23, 2017 number was 236.

2. Average list price was $839,321 and the Median list price was $649,900. The April numbers were as follows... average list price was an eye-popping $841,185 and the Median list price was $657,500.

As, you can see, our market conditions remain very similar to last month's numbers. Not much has changed. We need more inventory!

2017 Lake Lanier Real Estate Market Update! It's A Bit Crazy!

2017 Lake Lanier Real Estate Market Update!  It's A Bit Crazy!

So far, for 2017, I think we can classify the waterfront home selling market here at Lake Lanier as "up and down".  It has truly been a bit erratic.  Take a look at the comparison chart below and you'll see what we mean.




If you are a Lake Lanier waterfront home seller right now, it's difficult to see where this market is heading.  We started out slowly in January and February.  We were revived in March, only to fall far short in April with a looming trend that doesn't look promising when compared to 2015 and 2016.  Is it the lake water level, interest rates, geopolitical concerns?  Who knows!  But for now, we are watching this closely and hoping for a March in May!

Lake Lanier Waterfront Home Sales For QTR1 2017 Versus QTR1 2016! A Quick Look At The Trend!

Lake Lanier Waterfront Home Sales For QTR1 2017 Versus QTR1 2016!  A Quick Look At The Trend!

We are really anxious to get into the details of what's going on here with the Lake Lanier waterfront home sales trends. We did a quick comparison this morning, looking at 2017 First Quarter Home Sales versus 2016 First Quarter Home sales. If you look at the tale of two charts below, it appears that 2017 is off by about 9% to 10%, when compared to the sales from 2016 in the same time period. We hope to get a few more details on this as we continue to research. We'll have to dig on these numbers a bit more to get additional trends. But for now, things appear to be a little bit slower out of the gate in 2017.

Lake Lanier Waterfront Home Sales Versus Average Sales Price By Year For The Past 10 Years!

Lake Lanier Waterfront Home Sales Versus Average Sales Price By Year For The Past 10 Years!

If you love charting, and the details presented, then you are going to love today's chart! This one is a thing of beauty! It looks at the past 10 years of Lake Lanier waterfront home sales, and it charts the trends in relationship to the number of homes sold versus the average sales price.

As you can see, for the past several years, sales prices have been increasing and the actual number of homes selling has been increasing as well. We are not quite back to the most recent peak of the market yet. The data does not show 2005 and 2006 when the sales arguably peaked. But we are on our way and making some serious strides at getting back to those levels.

The sales price line overlay shows how average prices are getting back to $600,000 for waterfront homes. This average sales price is well above the average sales price of homes in the surrounding counties around Lake Lanier. Supporting the idea that waterfront homes typically sell at a premium to average off-lake homes in our area.

Lake Lanier Waterfront Home Sales Prices Versus List Price Ratios For 2016!

Lake Lanier Waterfront Home Sales Prices Versus List Price Ratios For 2016!  Let's check the discounts that were given on the sales!

I'm often asked by sellers what they can expect as a sales price if they list their Lake Lanier property at a given price.  Alternatively, buyers often want to know what kind of offer they should submit on a home that is listed at a particular price.  The chart below can help provide some of those answers. Based on 2016 Lake Lanier waterfront home sales in FMLS, here's the data that we were able to find.




My take on this is that we're not seeing a lot of  "fire" sales.  The market was healthy and pretty strong.  Not a lot of foreclosure, short sales or distressed property sales.  Discounts appear to typically be in the 3% - 6% off of list price range.
