More inventory → more choices → more selective buyers → sellers need to be strategic.
Cobb County’s median home price is DOWN 1.2%…
But before you panic, let’s talk about what that number ACTUALLY means.
The median sales price in August was $425,000, compared to $430,000 last August.
That does NOT mean every home in Cobb County lost 1.2% of its value. The median simply reflects the middle sale price of the homes that sold.
Here’s what else happened in Cobb County:
675 homes sold — down 6.4%
497 homes went under contract — down 31.4%
2,753 homes are currently active — up 11.4%
What does that mean?
Buyers have more choices, and they’re being more selective.
That means sellers can’t rely on the strategies that worked a few years ago—or even last year.
Price, condition, presentation and location matter A LOT!!
And yes, people are STILL buying homes every day, everywhere!
The headline gives you a number. Your house requires a strategy.
