How to read a neighborhood
A subdivision with a handful of sales a year cannot support the same report as a ZIP or a school. The numbers below are a trailing year, not a monthly market.
- 22 homes closed here in the last 12 months. That is enough to sketch a price range.
- Ignore a single month’s median. One luxury sale or one starter home moves it by six figures.
- Price off Duluth, then adjust for this subdivision’s size, age, and condition.
- 6 homes are active right now. That live list is more useful than last month’s median. Homes for sale in Encore, Duluth →
Versus the broader market
Latest closed month only, not the 12-month figure above. The Georgia footprint is the macro context.
3.0 months of supply on last month’s pace (6 active ÷ 2 closings). 3.3 months on the trailing-12 pace (average 2 closings a month). These are different windows.Sellers have leverage on well-priced homes. 100.0% of last month’s closings were below list. Days on market are up 1017% from a year ago.
How homes actually closed
Based on 2 closings. One sale moves these percentages by 50 points. Read the direction, not the exact share.
Leading signals
These move before closed prices. Use them to see if the next 30–60 days look tighter or looser than last month’s closings.
New listings are outpacing sales and closed sales are already taking longer or reducing more. Expect more inventory and more negotiating room over the next 30–90 days.

What this means if you are listing in Encore
- Price to the 12-month median and $/SF ($695,542, $250), not last month and not the market-wide number. Then check it against Duluth.
- 3.0 months of supply on last month’s pace. Homes that sold in the last year took about 24 days. Longer than the 12-month DOM usually means the price is high.
- 54.5% of the last 12 months’ closings were below list. 18.2% had already reduced. Read that as a year, not as last month’s three sales.
- The live list is the competition. Homes for sale in Encore, Duluth →
What this means if you are making an offer
- Well-priced homes can still move. Your better leverage is on homes that have sat.

- Do not use the market-wide median. Start with Duluth, then this subdivision’s 12-month $/SF.
- Last month had 2 closings. One sale does not make a market. Confirm on the live list. Homes for sale in Encore, Duluth →
