  • ATLANTA HOUSING MARKET ACTIVITY | JANUARY - NOVEMBER 2017 SINGLE FAMILY HOME SALES 2017 2016 % 2017 Ave
    This report charts the year-to-date sales activity of metro Atlanta's most popular neighborhoods, by school districts, and compares their sales activity to the metro area as a whole. Reporting sales activity for the year allows us to identify top- performing neighborhoods. We compare sales data year-over-year instead of month-to-month because the real estate market experiences seasonal fluctuations that make month-to-month comparisons misleading. For example, June is the busiest closing month of the year, but February is traditionally one of the slowest. Therefore comparing market activity from the same month a year earlier provides a more accurate measure of the health of the housing market.
