Past 12 months lake home sales at Lake Oconee

During the past 12 months, even in a very challenging market for primarily second homes, sales have not completely dried up.

For lakefront single family homes with private lake frontage:
71 sales @ 95% of asking price; hi@$4,000K, lo@$262K, median@$689K
There are nine homes pending from $3,605K to $399K, median@$549K

For off-lake single family homes, including golf communities:
97 sales @ 93% of asking price; hi@$1,570, lo@$55K, median@$315K
There are 15 homes pending from $1,195K to $70K, median@$199K

Time on market is almost meaningless, as is the percentage of asking price. Reason: if the ask price dropped from $600K to $500K before it went under contract, and it sold for $475K, that's 95% of the reduced price, but 79% of the original price. Before making an offer, buyers need to know the pricing and listing history of the specific property. That's part of what a competent agent can do.
