NE GA and NC Real Estate Summary – April, 2025

Brasstown Resort Horses

Such a beautiful time in our area! – photo is from the Brasstown Resort horse pastures.

Listing inventory improved some more recently, and we are at least glad that it gives our buyers a slightly better choice range than they’ve had in a while. While each county is different, the overall picture for our MLS area seems to be a slowing of sales and also a slight softening of prices, alongside reductions in listing prices too. So, we’re still in a bit of a sleepy market, but with the stock market now rebounding impressively, fuel prices down, insurance costs improving some, interest rates holding steady, and summer coming, it would appear to this writer that right now is a window of opportunity for buyers to come here shopping for real property. It should help in interpreting the general tone of all this to realize that these generally sleepy numbers were delivered in the month of April when there was an extremely high level of financial anxiety and uncertainty across the country and even the world. Now though, all that seems to be quickly melting down toward “normal”, and while next month may see some still soft numbers simply because results in our statistics come a month or two after buyers go shopping and sign contracts, the expectation is for improved traffic and interest in our area coming very soon.
