How we helped Dianne sell her home that had been on the market for 4 years with our negotiation skills

 "I had excellent results with Potts Realty! They gave me good advice and were able to sell the home that had been on the market for 4 years within a month! She aggressively went out and sold it and was able to get the offer within $5,000 of our asking price. She always kept us updated and everything ran smoothly!"

Today, we're going to take a look at what we have seen in the first 6 months of the year as compared to the same period last year here in Atlanta. First, the numbers:

• Home sales have increased by 8%, from 4,919 last year to 5,311. 
• The inventory of available homes has jumped an incredible 25%, up about 4,000 since last year.
• At the same time, average home prices have jumped 11%, from $222,975 to $248,556.

What this all means is that there is a wide selection of homes available if you are looking to buy. On the flip side, if you are looking to sell, you have a lot of other sellers to compete with. However, while the numbers give a good idea of general trends in the area, prices are neighborhood specific. 

Before getting excited or discouraged about what these numbers mean for you, it's important to contact an agent and see what is happening in your particular area. We are always available to chat - don't hesitate to give us a call or shoot us an email. We would love to hear from you!

How we helped Brita sell her home by always being on the ball

"They were very efficient. I got my home sold fairly quickly and they kept on their promises. There was an instance where we got 2 offers on the same day and before I could even call them back Cindy, who works with Melida, called both parties and asked them for their highest and best offers so she was really on the ball for that."
