Key Findings

  1. $92,500 median sold price is the best indicator of realized market value in 38114 and, paired with a up year-over-year price trend, suggests recent transaction-level appreciation despite mixed market signals.
  2. $119,900 median listing price exceeds the median sold price, which may indicate seller expectations are higher than achieved transaction prices and could create pricing friction between list and sale levels.
  3. 271 median days on market points to slower sales velocity and prolonged negotiation windows, which may indicate soft near-term liquidity even as prices trend upward.
  4. Current 30-year fixed mortgage rates averaging 6.53% and an elevated interest rate pressure backdrop, combined with a 1,025 median market rent and a neutral market temperature, suggest financing costs are a caution for buyers while rental levels remain flat.
