Hamilton Mill, Dacula GA Homes For Sale & Value Market Report - SEPT 09

Joshua Jarvis: Real Estate Agent in Dacula, GA

Hamilton Mill in Dacula, GA is still on of the most sought after neighborhoods in Gwinnett County. With 97 Hamilton Mill Homes For Sale, there's a lot to choose from.


There's quite a bit of activity but if you know me, let's just get to the facts....

  • 97 Homes for sale
    • 15 OF THOSE ARE SHORT SALES!
    • High $1.1 Million
    • Low $209K - WHAT A DEAL!!
  • Average Pending / Under Contract Home for Sale is $317K
  • Since June, 28 homes have sold.
    • List Price of Homes that sold: $310K On Average
    • Sale Price: $295K
    • Only 91 Days on Market.
    • ONLY 2 SHORT SALES SOLD DURING THIS TIME!

A few other things is that most of the short sales are listed by agents who haven't closed 1 short sale... ever. In fact, there are numerous listings that are short sales but have incorrect wording putting the agent and home owner at risk!

The deals are outstanding and inventory is moving. This is a great time to move up or move in!

5 Ideas for Hosting a Rockin’ Open House!

Nickolas Underwood: Real Estate Agent in Lawrenceville, GA

Ok so I put out a post a couple of days ago about hosting my first open house. I was absolutely asounded by the amount of advice given to me by all of you! It went well and I thought I would just share some of the amazing and generous adivce that was given to me by some of you nice ActiveRainers.

1. Bake some cookies. Not only is this a nice gesture and it gives them something to munch on, but it also gives the house a nice "homey" smell to it. Also try brewing coffee for added affect. ( Thanks Janaya Goselin)

2. Have a guest book and ask each visitor to sign in. Get their name, number, and email address and ask them if it's ok to stay in touch with them. (Thanks Edward and Celia Maddox)

3. Have some nice cool tunes playing in the background. Having a little "elevator music" can really add elegant touch to the atmosphere. (Thanks again Janaya)

4. Make up a showcase packet for the home. Include all the features and unique qualities of the home. Also make sure that you have all HOA fees on hand and include such information as local schools, nearest grocery stores, pool/tennis availability, etc. (Thanks Lane Bailey)

5. Properly advertise the open house. This can be accomplished on any budget. Some good places to check out are Craigslist, Facebook, Twitter, and of course local newspapers. Make sure that you start advertising far enough in advance. Usually a week is plenty. (I'll claim this one)

Most importantly, HAVE FUN! If you're having fun it will be infectious. Make some friends! Have some cookies! How could you not have fun?!

As always please feel free to add to this list and share it. All of your helpful advice is welcomed by this brand new Realtor!
