August was a busy month for real estate in Floyd County, GA. At Prestige Home Brokers, we know all the stats and charts floating around can feel overwhelming. That’s why we like to break them down in a clear, easy-to-understand way. Whether you’re thinking about buying, selling, or just keeping an eye on the market, our goal is to help you feel confident about your next steps.
Homes Sold and Sales Volume
In August, about 96 homes changed hands in Floyd County, adding up to roughly $29.2 million in sales. That’s up 8% from last year and nearly 18% higher than July. You’ll notice that while the number of homes sold stayed pretty much the same compared to July, the higher total sales volume shows buyers are willing to spend a little more, which is great news for sellers.
Here’s the thing: if you’re buying, this steady activity means there are still plenty of opportunities to find the right home. And for sellers, it’s encouraging to see that demand remains strong.
Home Prices
Home prices also climbed in August. The median sales price reached $271,000, marking an 8.6% increase from last year and a 12% jump from July. That kind of steady growth gives sellers confidence that their homes are gaining value while giving buyers a clearer idea of what to expect in the market.
Inventory
The inventory picture shifted a bit. New listings dipped to 175, a slight decrease from last year, while active listings stayed fairly steady at 441, which is up more than 33% compared to August of 2024.
For buyers, more active listings mean a wider selection to choose from and a little extra breathing room when deciding. For sellers, it’s a reminder that even in a strong market, presentation and smart pricing are what make a home stand out. Even small details can make a big difference.
Key Takeaways
- For Buyers: A bigger pool of homes gives you the flexibility to shop around and find a property that really fits your needs.
- For Sellers: Rising prices are encouraging, but standing out among a larger group of listings takes careful preparation and thoughtful pricing.
Overall, August shows a healthy market with solid sales, rising prices, and plenty of options for buyers. Watching these trends month to month helps you make decisions based on real data rather than guesswork.
