Jonesboro GA Real Estate Market Report - September 2011

Jonesboro GA Real Estate Market Report - September 2011:

Summer bargains abounded in the Jonesboro, GA area over the past few HOT months --- hot in more ways than one for the local real estate market. Congrats to the many lucky home buyers and real estate investors who were able to take good advantage of the heated up market.

Jonesboro has been priced to sell lately. And savvy buyers have cashed in on the opportunities. Even in a distressed market, homes must be priced right and in appropriate condition to attract a sharp buyer looking for a home that will provide good investment value.

Pending sales in the Jonesboro, GA real estate market have been up this year over last year by an average 10.9%!

And this, even though buyers are a little more scarce this year than last year, partly due to the disappearance of the homebuyers’ tax credit, but also due to continuing economic uncertainty on one hand, and increasingly stringent lender guidelines on the other.

As a result of more sales and fewer distressed markets coming on the market, inventory of homes for sale in Jonesboro GA has also nomalized somewhat. This means that the really good deals take a little more ingenuity and research to find.

Taken together, these factors still make for a stimulating real estate environment in Jonesboro GA.
