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.

Lake Lanier Home Sales Jan.-April 2017 Versus 2016 & 2017 from Arthur Prescott

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!
