As of the writing of this, there are 116 single family homes for sale in Spalding County at about $290,000 average and $310,000 list price. This represents a great value for home buyers looking to be in this region. These prices are nearly a third less than thomes in other areas such as in Coweta or Fayette counties. The Medium price increases over the same quarter of last year in Spalding County may be a result of additional demand spilling over from other areas that have seen higher prices? Another aspect worth noting about the market here is that days on market are essentially not changed over the quarter this year compared with the last. There seems to be quite a bit of of outliers extending out the average days on market verses medium and this suggests some room to negotiate with perhaps some of the overpriced inventory relative to quality, but even within the more move in ready, priced right, market segment there is a little room perhaps to breath some. Obviously market inventory rates continue to be extraordinarily low amidst strong demand, and so a buyer must be prepared in advance with a good strategy in place. Sellers need to be priced right and on market with a show ready product and a class act agent in order to take advantage of highest probability of market performance.
