Columbus Ga., fourteen area homes went under contract this week end. More than a dozen purchasers stopped looking at homes and made the decision to buy a new or existing home. Three homes were sold in the Alabama area, two in Meriwether County and nine in the Columbus area. The price ranges were $449,900 to $49,900. The average price was $186,000. What does all this mean in the grand scheme of things? Not much! It is a fact that people will always need and buy homes. It is a buyers market, particularly for homes that have lingered on the market a bit longer than usual. Is it a good time to buy a home? Always, depending on your needs.
The absolute best way to make an informed decision is to find a reputable realtor. Shop around, find someone you make a connection with and somebody you trust. There are hundreds of great realtors in the Columbus Ga. area and they have information that is not readily available to you. Days a home has been on the market, will give you some idea how willing or motivated the sellers are. Comparable homes sold in the area will give you a value comparison, in dollar amounts, of homes sold in the neighborhood. So go out and make a new friend and let a realtor help you find the home you want.
