There's some buyer interest in Athens, but it's not a frenzied pace. While some homes are going under contract, the overall speed of the market is steady rather than fast. Buyers currently have a bit more time and selection.
About 134 homes recently went pending, which means buyers are actively making offers and moving forward with purchases. However, the pending ratio is 0.14, which suggests that for every 100 active listings, about 14 are going under contract. This is a slight decrease compared to the past year.
Homes are staying on the market for an average of 88 days before selling. This is a little longer than last year, giving buyers more time to look around and decide. It also shows that homes aren't flying off the shelves.
The median listing price is $374,500. This price has dipped slightly by 1.9% in the most recent month but is up a small 0.7% over the past year. Buyers might see some price adjustments as a quarter of all listings have reduced their price.
For buyers in Athens right now, this means you have time to explore your options without too much pressure. You might even find some homes with recent price drops.
