Buyer window

3-month volume-weighted median $281,567 (+3.4% vs same 3 months last year) on 61 closings. Latest month is $240,500. Confidence: Moderate (61 closings in 3 months).

3-month $/SF is up 5.1% versus the same 3 months last year.

Months of supply83
7.3 months · 25% of the score

Active homes divided by last month’s closings. Under 4 favors sellers. Above 6 gives buyers more choices and more room.

YoY price29
+3.4% · 20% of the score

3-month volume-weighted median versus the same 3 months a year ago. One month cannot swing this. A rising median with falling $/SF is usually mix, not appreciation.

New / closed95
2.44 · 20% of the score

New listings in 30 days versus last month’s closings. Above 1.2 means inventory is building. That usually softens the next 30–90 days.

Pending / (active + under contract)90
0.06 · 15% of the score

Pending divided by active plus under contract. Not pending divided by active alone. Low means demand is not absorbing the stock.

Price reduced90
50% · 10% of the score

Share of recent closings that had already cut the list price. High means sellers are adjusting. That is where negotiation usually appears.

DOM trend77
+22.4% · 10% of the score

Direction of days on market over the last 6 months, not the current DOM. A low score here means DOM is falling, which favors sellers even if supply is high.

If you own in Griffin

High confidence. 229 closings in the last 12 months.

  • This is the market your home sits in. It is too broad to be your only comp, and too local to ignore.
  • City median is $240,500. Price your home off the neighborhood or school district, then check that it still makes sense against this number.
  • 7.3 months of supply. Median days on market 42. That is how long a correctly priced listing is taking.
  • If you are deciding whether to list, the useful question is what is for sale on your street and in your school district, not the citywide median. Homes for sale in Griffin, GA →

What this means if you are listing in Griffin

  • Price to the closed median and $/SF here ($240,500, $157), not the market-wide number. This market is below the broader market by 39.1% on median.
  • With 7.3 months of supply, expect about 42 days on market if priced correctly. Longer than that usually means the market is telling you the price is high.
  • 44.4% of recent closings were below list and 50.0% of listings had already reduced. Concessions show up more on listings that have already sat.
  • Check live inventory for the actual competition before you set the number. Homes for sale in Griffin, GA →

What this means if you are making an offer

  • Supply is elevated. You have more room than in a seller’s market, especially on homes past 30 days.
  • Your better leverage is on homes that have been listed 30+ days or have already reduced. About 50.0% of recent closings had a price reduction.
  • This micro-market diverges from the broader market by 39%. Do not use the statewide median as your comp base.
  • Closed prices lag 30–90 days. Confirm current supply on the inventory page before you assume the temperature has not shifted.
