Alpharetta Real Estate market is getting stronger

I just called to see if I can show a home tomorrow in the Tuxford Subdivision in Alpharetta only to find out it just went under contract - it looked like a great home. This has caused me to reflect on several homes in the past week that either I have written offers on or tried to show that also have gone under contract. For Example:

1. 7555 Golden Sands in Forstyth County - last week my buyer made an offer and the home received multiple offers - we are awaiting banks decision
2. 5614 Brendlynn Dr in Suwanee (Gwinnett County) - in the Bears Best Subdivision - listed on a Thursday, they had 9 offers when my buyer submitted his offer - was not the winning offer
3. 290 Autumn Wood Lane in Roswell - Steeple Chase Subdivision) - when looking at the home there were 4-5 agents showing the home - my buyer did not submit an offer but it went under contract after being on the market only 5 days.
4. 152 Dockside Downs in Woodstock - went under contract in 5 days once they decreased the price - my buyer wanted to see this one but it went under contrac the day I tried to set the appointment.
5. 105 Windlam Ct in Estates at Wellington, Alpharetta homes for sale- is another my buyer found and it went under contract quickly.

As I show real estate in Alpharetta, Cumming, Suwanee and Woodstock- I set appointments the night before. Now I hold my breath when I ask if their home is under contract because I am getting a lot more yes answer than I used to. From my level - it looks like the market is picking up. It could be due to school just starting or the fact the economy is starting to get stronger. I think as the economy gets stronger and buyers have more confidence in their jobs we will see the inventory levels come down quickly.

The reason these homes all went under contract is because their sellers were motivated and priced their homes according to the market and their condition. Homes in good shape and priced right will sell in Cumming, Alpharetta and in North Atlanta.
