Top Ten Sandy Springs Home Sales Of 1st Quarter 2023

Once again, our own Ben Hirsh sold the most expensive home in Sandy Springs for the 1st quarter of 2023!  Before we get to our list of the top 10 sales in Sandy Springs, Q1, we have all the stats for the state of the real estate market year-to-date in our community…

The number of homes sold for both single-family and multi-family units continues the substantial downward trend we saw building in 2022. In terms of sales price, Q1 was a roller coaster, therefore it is nearly impossible to predict how the remainder of 2023 will go in terms of the long seller’s market we have been experiencing.  The market saw a slight rise in prices in January, a very sharp increase in February, and then a decrease in average sales price year-over-year in March. The jump in February was largely due to two $8 Million+ sales, a $6 Million sale and a $4 Million sale in the same month.

Here are the number of sales and average close price for single family homes in Sandy Springs 1st quarter 2023 and 2022:

No surprise, attached housing thus far in 2023 also showed a dramatic slowdown in the number of units sold year-to-date.  However, the average sales price decreased a bit in January, then rose in February and March year over year.
