We are going to go right into today's topic: Is it worth it to put your home on the market in the fall? Maybe you thought about putting your home on the market last spring or last summer, but never got around to doing so. If you want to sell now, but are worried you will have to wait until spring to get a good value, we have some numbers you may be interested in. Hopefully these will help you make your decision.

The number of homes will steadily drop soon to about 40-60% of what we had at the peak of the summer
The number of buyers will decrease as well, but only by about 25-30%

If you do the math, the answer of whether the fall is a good time to sell should be an obvious yes. The number of buyers drop, but not nearly as much as the number of homes for sale does. There will be a demand for homes and you can take advantage of that this fall.

When is the best time to sell your home? Really, it's when you are ready. It just so happens that if you are ready now, you can take advantage of some fantastic market trends.

Fall is here, marking the end of the busy summer real estate season. We would like to share with you today some statistics we have compiled that compare this summer's numbers to last year's. As you will see, our market is improving year-over-year and we are excited to see what the future has to bring. Here are a few of the key changes in the market over the past year.

Inventory is up 21%. There are a lot more homes on the market this year compared to last year.
Sales are down 7% from last year
However, prices are higher than they were at this point last year and they are currently holding steady.

If you want to know what is going on in your specific Atlanta neighborhood, give us a call or send us an email! We would be happy to go over the numbers in your area with you so you can better understand what your next move should be.

testimonials from happy clients

Greg - "We had good results when we worked with Potts Realty. I worked more with Cindy, but Melida actually found us the house. They were very responsive and whenever we needed anything or would call, they actually responded right away. "

Brita - "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."

Dianne - "I had excellent results with Potts Realty! They gave me good advice and was 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!"

Rick - "They got a fair number of people coming in to look at the house and they did everything it took to make it happen. They had signs, all the advertising, and I really didn’t have to be involved. In looking for a house, they were very good at finding places that met my criteria. They had everything done so quickly!"

Sandy - "I thought Potts Realty did a very good job and I was pleased with the whole process. I was completely happy with them."

Tony - "I was very happy with them. They were informative and I couldn’t have asked for anything else. They were just there when I needed them. Years ago, Melida came to my house and told me that I should tear up my carpet and finished the floor so I did and I think that’s what sold the house."

Mary - "We had a good listing experience and it only took about 9 days to sell it. The first people that looked at the house liked it but they had a hitch and changed their mind. They ended up coming back about 2 or 3 days later and bought it. I had used a different Realtor about a year and a half before, but I was very satisfied with Potts Realty."
