Social Media Post - September 2026 Market Update

Heading into September, mortgage rates in Georgia are holding near 6.6% to 6.75%, roughly in line with the national average. That steadiness matters: when rates sit still, you can plan.

At the same time, metro Atlanta is moving further toward a buyer's market. The most recent GAMLS data shows median prices holding around $420,000, with about 22,972 active listings and roughly four and a half months of supply. Homes are taking longer to sell, and buyers have real negotiating room across NW Metro Atlanta.

First-time buyers should also ask about Georgia's Georgia Dream program, which has offered an eligible 30-year fixed rate near 5.875%. That gap versus market rates can change the affordability math for those who qualify.

For sellers, the takeaway is clear: price it right from day one, plan for a longer timeline,and present your home beautifully. Homes that do those three things are still finding buyers.
