Buckhead 2018 Year End Real Estate Market Report

March 22, 2019 by Thom Abbott

The Buckhead area of Atlanta is usually associated with the “mega-mansions” of places like Tuxedo Park or West Paces Ferry Road, where you find the Governor’s Mansion. For the purpose of this overall Buckhead 2018 Year End Real Estate Market Report, we will just focus on the primary zip code of 30305. Yes, there are parts of 30309, also referred to as Brookwood that could be considered Buckhead as well. But this “snapshot” will give you an idea of the home sales in 2018. You can find more information about Buckhead here.

Disclaimer: As we do this “15,000 ft overview” of the Buckhead market, there are certainly other homes/neighborhoods that could qualify to be part of Buckhead. But these numbers are from FMLS and Zip Code 30305.

Single Family Homes

We had to break down the single family homes into three categories, just like we did with our Brookhaven, GA Real Estate Market Report. So we will look at homes sold over $1m, homes sold $500,000 – $999,000 and finally homes sold for less than $500,000.

Over $1 Million — There were 104 homes sold, ranging from a high of $4.975M in Tuxedo Park to $1M in Haynes Manor on Peachtree Battle Avenue.

$500,000 – $999,000 — This price range had the highest number of home sales, at 160 homes sold. They ranged from a high of $985,000 in Peachtree Park to $500,000 in Peachtree Hills.

$500,000 or less — As you might expect for Buckhead, there were not many homes sales less than $500,000! Lucky Number 13 to be exact…ranging from a high of $490,000 to a low of $429,900 in Peachtree Hills.

Buckhead, as we mentioned earlier, is known for the mega-mansions along West Paces Ferry, as well as being home to Lenox Mall, Phipps Plaza, the former Ritz Carlton Buckhead and the Buckhead Atlanta shopping area on Pharr Road.

Buckhead is also known for its pricey condominiums and townhomes! There were 471 sales in 2018, ranging from $3,700,000 at The St. Regis down to a low of $81,000 at Slaton Manor. How’s THAT for a price range of homes….Wow! Of those 471, an amazing number of 365 homes sold under $500,000.

What’s The Real Estate Market Like In Buckhead?

Buckhead is somewhat of a unique part of the real estate landscape of Atlanta. It’s the place where the mansions are….the shopping and some pretty awesome restaurants. The area is seeing its share of new apartment buildings (think Icon Buckhead next to the Waldorf-Astoria) and upcoming changes to Phipps Plaza as they add a hotel and other amenities. The fact that there were 365 condo sales under $500,000, and there were many that were in the $200-300,000 range make it still affordable for many.

Brookhaven GA 2018 Year End Real Estate Market Report

March 3, 2019 by Thom Abbott

Brookhaven, GA has always been a desirable location to live, ever since I’ve live in Atlanta! And when it became a city, I think that desirability grew even more as they looked to make things better like zoning and parks.

In this post, we want to focus on the 2018 real estate year in Brookhaven and what the real estate market was like. You can find more information about Brookhaven here.

Brookhaven GA 2018 Year End Real Estate Market Report

Disclaimer: As we do this “15,000 ft overview” of the Brookhaven market, please keep in mind many factors come into play as we pull market numbers. Some homes listed as Brookhaven, are not actually IN the city limits of Brookhaven. Ashford Park is a prime example…parts of it are actually in Chamblee, so some homes will get listed in Chamblee and some get listed in Brookhaven. But this overview will give you a good idea of what’s happening in the Brookhaven area.

Single Family Homes

We had to break down the single family home sales into three categories: Homes sold over $1m, homes sold $500,000 -$999,000 and finally homes sold for $499,999 or less. In 2018, those numbers look like this:

Over $1 Million — There were 49 sales in 2018, ranging from several at $1M to a high of $2,600,000 for 2799 Mabry Road.

$500,000 – $999,000 — A whooping 335 homes sold in this price range in 2018, ranging from $502,000 to $993,000

$500,000 or less — And there was an impressive 169 homes sold in this price range, from a low of $215,000 to a high of $495,000. There is a good chance than many of these homes in the lower price range were torn down to make way for the higher priced new construction that Brookhaven is seeing. On some streets in Brookhaven, we would not be surprised if in a few years there will be no original homes left…having all been torn down and replaced with new construction. It’s pretty amazing.

Brookhaven has a MARTA station on Peachtree Road, and another, just outside its city limits with the Medical Center station on the North side. Town Brookhaven has been the city’s “downtown” of sorts, and now a new development, including a hotel has been proposed right in front of Town Brookhaven,.

Condominiums/Townhomes

Brookhaven has a variety of condominium and townhome communities. Surprisingly enough, there were like 60-some sales of condominium homes that were in the range of $205,000 or less….making Brookhaven still an affordable location for first time buyers. We do expect, however, to see those prices continue to rise in the coming years as the city works on making changes to areas like Buford Highway where any new construction will be way above these kinds of prices.

In 2018, there 380 sales, ranging in price from $106,000 at Keys Lake Condominiums (off Buford Highway) to a very impressive $1,350,000 for a home at The Aldredge. In looking at the report, you can see a majority of the sales were in the $400-600,000 range.

What’s The Real Estate Market Like in Brookhaven?

As we said earlier in this report….the housing boom of “tear-down and build new” will most likely continue into the future. We suspect it won’t be long any many streets will no longer have any of the older homes left…all having been torn down and replaced with the much larger $1m+ homes!

Townhomes and condominiums are still affordable in many areas of Brookhaven, but land prices and new construction will surely change that. There are numerous large, older apartment complexes that are more than likely going to get bought up and torn down to make way for new construction. It’s a challenge the city is looking to deal with to include affordable housing requirements for new construction. How that all plays out remains to be seen.

Doraville Real Estate Market Report October 2018

November 18, 2018 by Thom Abbott

The Doraville real estate market has really changed with the arrival of Carver Hills, and we wanted to “take it’s pulse!” So let’s look at the Doraville Real Estate Market Report October 2018.

Please note: In preparing this report, we used data from FMLS (First Multiple Listing Service) and searched by the city name, “Doraville.” As a result, some homes on this report are not within the actual city limits of Doraville, but were listed with Doraville as the city address, most likely because of a zip code assignment.

First, a look at the townhome/condominium market…and a disclaimer. Doraville has only 1 condo community, and a one community is using a Doraville address, but they are actually in the city limits of Peachtree Corners, that being Copperleaf at Global Forum.

For October, there were 13 active listings, ranging from a Ashlyn Point 4-bedroom at $238,000 to a 3-bedroom at Carver Hills for $492,738. In the chart below, you can see the average days on market to be just 32 days, but a Copperleaf listing has been on the market for 122 days!

7 listings were Under Contract, and ranged from $95,000 at Chestnut Creek (the only condo complex) to $302,834 at Copperleaf at Global Forum.

7 homes sold (or closed) in October in Doraville. They ranged in price from $135,000 at Aspen Woods to a 3-bedroom at Copperleaf at Global Forum for $289,000.

In the Single-family market in Doraville, there were 18 homes listed For Sale. They range from $179,500 for a 3-bedroom, 1-bath in Guilford Village to $608,008 in Carver Hills for a new construction home.

There were five homes Under Contract ranging in price from $449,900 on Eula Circle ( a 5-bedroom built in 2012) to $563,316 in Carver Hills.

12 homes sold in October, ranging from $141,000 on Beacon Drive to $356,400 on Eaglerock in Northcrest.

Keep in mind, this Market Report is a “snapshot moment in time” of what is happening in the market, and is a view at, say 30,000 feet. What may be happening with sales and prices in your condominium building could be much different that what is selling across the street. And the same is true for single family homes as well.

If you are looking to Buy or Sell a home in Doraville, MyMidtownMojo.com can help! We have lived in the area for 20+years and know it very well!

Chamblee Real Estate Market Report October 2018

November 18, 2018 by Thom Abbott

Chamblee has come a long way in being a desirable ITP neighborhood/city! Between new retail as well as single family and townhome construction, there are many housing options available here. Let’s “take it’s pulse!” So let’s look at the Chamblee Real Estate Market Report October 2018.

Please note: In preparing this report, we used data from FMLS (First Multiple Listing Service) and searched by the city name, “Chamblee.” As a result, some homes on this report are not within the actual city limits of Chamblee, but were listed with Chamblee as the city address, most likely because of a zip code assignment.

First, a look at the condominium/townhome market. Chamblee only has a few condominium options, but there are numerous new townhome developments.

For October, there were 46 active listings, ranging from a 2-bedroom condo at Eco Lofts at $280,000 to a 4-bedroom at The Bristol for $859,900. (The Bristol is the new, under construction development in Downtown Chamblee) In the chart below, you can see the average days on market to be 71, but a listing at Peachtree Creek Township seems to have been on the market for 157 days!

Just 9 listings were Under Contract, and ranged from $139,850 at Henderson Mill (not in Chamblee City Limits) to $491,497 at Townsend at Chamblee.

Only 5 homes sold (or closed) in October in Chamblee. They ranged in price from $210,000 at Elem Street Townhomes to a 4-bedroom at Peachtree Creek Township at $437,988.

In the Single-family market in Chamblee, there were 32 homes listed For Sale. The ranged from $289,900 for a 3-bedroom in Beverly Woods to $975,000 in Keswick Village for a new construction 4-bedroom, 4-bath home.

There were 13 homes Under Contract ranging in price from $275,000 in Huntley Hills to $825,000, also in Huntley Hills, but a 5-bedroom new construction home.

9 homes sold, or closed in October, ranging from $240,000 in Nottaway to $579,000 in Harts Place.

Brookhaven Market Report October 2018

November 16, 2018 by Thom Abbott

The Brookhaven real estate market is still moving, and we wanted to “take it’s pulse!” So let’s look at the Brookhaven Market Report October 2018.

First, a look at the condominium and townhome market…and a disclaimer. The numbers for this report were taken from FMLS (First Multiple Listing Service) and we searched simply by the city name, Brookhaven. So if a specific property was listed incorrectly, it would not be a part of this report.

For October, there were 83 active listings, ranging from a Keys Lake 1-bedroom at $110,000 to a 4-bedroom at Brookhaven Wiltshire for $1.199M. In the chart below, you can see the average days on market to be 59, but a listing at Lenox Bluff at Lenox Park has been on the market for 363 days! It should be noted that at the time of this report we counted 12 homes that were under $200,000 in Brookhaven! You won’t see that much longer!

28 listings were Under Contract, and ranged from $158,000 at Keys Lake to $824,900 at the Brookhaven Wiltshire.

26 homes sold (or closed) in October in Brookhaven. They ranged in price from $182,000 at Keys Crossing for a 2-bedroom home to a 3-bedroom at Bramley Park at $896,000.

In the Single-family market in Brookhaven, there were 151 homes listed For Sale. They range from a 3-bedroom in Ashford Park for $299,900 to a home on Brookhaven Drive for $3.15M.

There were 26 homes Under Contract ranging in price from $354,000 in Ashford Park to $2.75M in Historic Brookhaven.

27 homes sold in October, ranging from $299,900 on Wayside Drive to $1.230M on Duke Road in Ashford Park.

Keep in mind, this Market Report is a “snapshot moment in time” of what is happening in the market, and is a view at, say 30,000 feet. What may be happening with sales and prices in your condominium or townhome community could be much different that what is selling across the street. And the same is true for single family homes as well.

Buckhead Market Report October 2018

November 16, 2018 by Thom Abbott

The Buckhead Atlanta real estate market is still moving, and we wanted to “take it’s pulse!” So let’s look at the Buckhead Market Report October 2018.

First, a look at the condominium market…and a disclaimer. Buckhead and how homes are listed by agents, can vary. We compiled this report based on the Area 21 as designated by the First Multiple Listing Service. (A map of this is to the right) Some listings that a buyer might think is a Buckhead area, may not appear as part of this report, but this is how we pulled these market numbers.

For October, there were 390 active listings, ranging from a Collier Green 1-bedroom at $115,000 to a 5-bedroom, 5-bathroom at The St. Regis for $15.995M. In the chart below, you can see the average days on market to be 80, but the St. Regis listing seems to have been on the market for 666 days!

62 listings were Under Contract, and ranged from $118,949 at Parklane on Peachtree to $1.8M at The Charles.

133 homes sold (or closed) in October in Buckhead. They ranged in price from $105,000 at Slaton Manor to a 2-bedroom at The Wakefield at $2.772M.

In the Single-family market in Buckhead, there were 499 homes listed For Sale. (An adjustment to the chart below is $379,900 for a home in LaVista Park to $25M for the former Tyler Perry estate, some 10,000 sq. ft on 17 acres. You can see that listing HERE!

There were 59 homes Under Contract ranging in price from $500,000 in Peachtree Hills to $4.950M on West Andrews Drive.

72 homes sold in October, ranging from $462,000 in Meadowbrook to $4.975M on Knollwood Drive in Tuxedo Park.
