April Market Brief – GMLRA Highlights

May 28, 2026

 

Discover the latest real estate trends with the Monthly Market Brief from the Georgia Mountains & Lakes REALTORS® Association, powered by Georgia MLS (GAMLS) data.

Inventory continued to grow in April 2026, with 360 new listings and 832 active listings, giving buyers more options as supply expands. Compared to March, sales activity improved, with sales volume rising to $52.6 million and 118 homes sold. However, sales volume, closed sales, contracts, and median sales price all remained below April 2025 levels. While the median sales price dipped to $330,000 and contracts eased slightly from March, expanding inventory and continued buyer activity suggest a market that remains active as the spring season progresses.
