The Southside Atlanta housing market is cashing in on its appeal for millennial buyers due to its convenience to Midtown and downtown job centers, improving schools and more affordable home prices.
Chattahoochee Hills, or the “Hill Country” is one city in the area that offers rural charm with horse farms, stables and equestrian events, in addition to organic farming and farm-to-
table dining opportunities. The area is located 35 minutes from the heart of Midtown Atlanta and in close proximity to the Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport.
This area appeals to a wide range of buyers, including young families who want to have their children experience life in a relaxed, rural setting, professionals who work from home or travel often on business and retirees who are choosing to reinvent their lives in a calmer, less intense setting than fast-paced Atlanta.
Prices are trending upward in the Hill Country, especially the cost per acre of undeveloped land. Georgia Multiple Listing Service, GAMLS, is reporting homes sales are up an average of 9.4 percent last quarter compared to the same time last year. Additional data indicates
more sellers are entering the market as reflected in an average 13 percent increase over last year. Also a most encouraging sign is that pending sales are up 16.4 percent with an average sales price up 16.9 percent.
Clayton County still has some challenges but houses are moving if the homes are priced right and in good condition. Many homeowners are still underwater in the area but are slowly recovering with the increase in sales prices and home values. The Fayette County
market is experiencing extremely low inventory in Peachtree City and new construction mainly in Tyrone. The recent expansion of Pinewood Atlanta Studios is fueling the demand for housing in the Fayette County market.
Henry County is experiencing a big demand for new construction all over the county with emphasis in the Hampton, McDonough and Locust Grove areas. Prices are ranging from $150,000 to $400,000 for traditional and Craftsman-style homes. The area continues to see many buyers relocating from the Northern states transferring to the county for better jobs, a warmer climate and more reasonable cost of living.
