Right now in Athens, the market shows some mixed signals for sellers, but overall, it's a bit more challenging than it was a year ago. Prices have dipped and homes are taking longer to sell. However, the price per square foot is up, which is a positive sign.
The median listing price is $317,175. This is 1.6% lower than last month and 5.8% lower than a year ago. The average listing price is also down by 9.9% compared to last year.
Homes are sitting on the market longer now, with a median of 45 days until sale. This is a 25.4% increase compared to a year ago, meaning homes are not selling as quickly as they used to. Also, nearly 18% of homes have had their prices reduced, which is up from last year.
There are more active listings, with 96 homes for sale, up 17.1% from last year. However, fewer new listings are coming onto the market, down 11.5% compared to a year ago. On a positive note, the median price per square foot is $163, which is 3.9% higher than last year.
Given the current trends, sellers should be prepared for their homes to take a bit longer to sell and to possibly command a lower price than a year ago. However, the increase in price per square foot suggests underlying value.
