The Smyrna Vinings home sales have continued to surge higher in 2021. Clearly historically low rates have helped to hold up demand in the market so far. While we spent last year wondering what the long-term effects would be from the coronavirus, it appears that it has meant continued low interest rates, but very few sellers actually willing to sell their homes. As of April, the Smyrna Vinings homes market is stronger than ever and will likely continue as long as rates remain extremely attractive.
This chart shows you the past 12 months of home sales at any given point. As you’ll notice, home sales have exceedingly improved over the past nine years and the coronavirus is not stopping that trend in Smyrna Vinings.
The Active Listings chart depicts Smyrna Vinings homes currently for sale. As a general rule, we’ve seen inventory increase through the May to July range and then see the amount of Smyrna Vinings homes for sale reduce towards the end of the year. That is definitely not a trend that we have followed last year. While sales and months of inventory numbers vary drastically from previous years, the one thing you can count on is that inventory decreases in the last quarter of the year, as indicated above. The big difference of course is that the overall number of homes on the market is just much less than in years past due to homes selling so quickly.
Smyrna Vinings homes for sale have remained very low as homeowners are locked into very low rates with many fearing they can’t find their next home if they sell. Current sales volumes continue to absorb any increase in actual inventory available for sale, but lets keep an eye on it as we head into winter. One additional source for additional inventory can be new construction as it comes online. If you’re interested in new construction, here are all the latest Smyrna Vinings new construction homes for sale.

As sales have improved over the last few years, we have seen substantial price increases as well. The number of sellers that want to sell will be outnumbered by buyers eager to take advantage of prices that are still very reasonable and interest rates that are phenomenal.

One other important statistic that we like to track is the overall health of the Smyrna Vinings home market. Months of inventory is a calculation that takes the current amount of homes for sale and divides that by the number of homes that have sold in the last 12 months. What the result means is if no more homes were listed, how many months would it take, based upon the past 12 months activity, to sell all the homes currently for sale.
A result of 6 months is considered a healthy market, less than 6 months a seller’s market and more than 6 months, a buyer’s market. What we can see from the chart above is that we have lower inventory levels right now than at any point in the past five years. Compare that with the highest amount of bloat back in 2011.
In April, inventory levels remained extremely low. As prices have increased this year, we have seen a big pickup in new construction in attempt to fill the void in the housing inventory. We are a seller’s market based on current inventory levels of .42 months of inventory versus a balanced market of 6 months of inventory. What this means is you will continue to see prices rise from here as demand outpaces supply. As long as interest rates continue to set new lows, demand will continue to outpace supply.
