Real Estate Market Insights: Are Home Values Still Climbing?

According to the latest data from First Multiple Listing Service (FMLS), home values across much of Metro Atlanta—including Henry County and surrounding areas—are holding steady this spring. While we’re not seeing the dramatic price jumps of the past few years, values remain resilient thanks to limited inventory and consistent buyer demand.

🏡 What’s Hot Right Now?
Move-in-ready homes are leading the market. Properties that feature updated kitchens, flexible work-from-home layouts, and inviting outdoor living areas are seeing faster sales and stronger offers. Buyers are prioritizing value and convenience—which means well-maintained homes with modern touches are winning.

📊 What the Numbers Show

• Median sale prices are either holding or inching upward in most parts of South Metro Atlanta.

• Days on market remain low for homes priced appropriately and staged well.

• Interest rate fluctuations are influencing buyer urgency—motivated buyers are still actively searching.

💼 Strategic Advice for Sellers:

• Now is a smart time to list before summer inventory increases.

• Consider pre-listing upgrades like neutral paint, improved lighting, or small kitchen enhancements to maximize appeal.

• Partner with a local agent who understands what features matter most in your area.

📍 Thinking About Buying?
Buyers still have opportunities, especially if they’re open to homes that need light cosmetic updates. A strategic offer backed by strong financing can give you a competitive edge.
