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 Waterfont Homes For Sale...Could The Market Be Slowing? Are Prices Peaking?

Lake Lanier Homes For Sale...Could The Market Slowing?  Are prices peaking?

Here's a little data that we collected this morning from FMLS and our quick thoughts on what we found...

  1. Only 236 Lake Lanier waterfront homes listed as "Active" and for sale.  That is not much inventory for a strong Spring market.
  2. Average list price was an eye-popping $841,185 and the Median list price was $657,500.
This is clearly a case where we need more inventory of homes to sell, especially in the $400,000 to $500,000 price range where we often see second-home buying activity.  Generally, when we see limited inventory, we also see a climb in list prices.  But how far are the prices going to climb before we see sales start to slow and fall off?  If you have a Lake Lanier waterfront home that you are considering selling, these stats might be a sign for you to jump in and get your home on the market while competition is limited and prices are up.

Just a few thoughts this morning.  Enjoy your Sunday at the lake!
