If you are buying to rent in 30253

Two rents against the same closed price. Voucher yield uses the HUD 2-bedroom SAFMR. Market yield uses the Census median gross rent. Neither is a cap rate. Census is 2023. SAFMR is FY2027.

SAFMR by bedroom: studio $1,590 · 1BR $1,650 · 2BR $1,800 · 3BR $2,140 · 4BR $2,550. The yield uses 2BR against the all-bedroom median. That is a screen, not a matched comp.

Confidence is not one number. Closed sales: High. Live inventory: current snapshot. Census renter share and rent: 2023 ACS, a lagging estimate. SAFMR: a voucher benchmark, not an approved rent.

Versus the broader market

Latest closed month only, not the 12-month figure above. The Georgia footprint is the macro context.

Opportunity score

0–100. Higher means more room for a buyer right now. Price change uses the 3-month median, not one month. Each part is scored 0–100, then weighted. Includes live supply and demand. Screening tool, not a forecast.

66
Softening

3-month volume-weighted median $340,637 (+8.7% vs same 3 months last year) on 121 closings. Latest month is $305,000. Confidence: Moderate (121 closings in 3 months).

3-month $/SF is down 6.6% versus the same 3 months last year. Median and $/SF are moving apart. That is usually a change in what sold, not pure appreciation or depreciation.

Months of supply80
7.1 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 price10
+8.7% · 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
2.38 · 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)86
0.17 · 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 reduced74
43% · 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 trend51
+7.7% · 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.

Buyer-leaning

7.1 months of supply on last month’s pace (264 active ÷ 37 closings). 6.8 months on the trailing-12 pace (average 39 closings a month).

If you own in 30253

High confidence. 466 closings in the last 12 months.

  • The county is context, not a price for your house. A county median blends starter homes and estates.
  • County median is $305,000. Use your city, school district, or subdivision for the number. Use the county to see if the broader market is tightening or loosening.
  • 7.1 months of supply countywide, 6.8 on the trailing-12 pace. The heading is softening. That tells you about leverage, not your home’s value.
  • Before you list or refinance against a number, pull the city and neighborhood pages and the live inventory. Homes for sale in 30253, GA →

What this means if you are listing in 30253

  • Price to the closed median and $/SF here ($305,000, $145), not the market-wide number. This market is below the broader market by 22.8% on median.
  • With 7.1 months of supply, expect about 35 days on market if priced correctly. Longer than that usually means the market is telling you the price is high.
  • 24.3% of recent closings were below list and 43.2% 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 30253, 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 43.2% of recent closings had a price reduction.
  • This micro-market diverges from the broader market by 23%. 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.
