The real estate market in the City of Decatur is setting new records.
The City of Decatur is diverse, progressive and energetic. With it’s walkable city center and a sought-after city school system, more people than ever are drawn to living in Decatur.
The story of real estate in Decatur continue to be one of high buyer demand and low inventory. The townhome and condo market logged a whopping 40% increase in prices in 2017, rising to a median price of $351,000, compared to $251,000 in 2016. Just over 2 months of inventory and rising prices meant that well-priced homes in top condition often went under contract in just days after receiving multiple offers.

With amazingly low interest rates, increased job growth and dynamic development projects, people will continue to move to the City of Decatur.
