Miller County is seeing leaner options for shoppers, with active listings down about 43% from a year ago to just five homes. New listings have also fallen sharply year over year, indicating fewer fresh choices hitting the market each month. Even with the limited selection, contracts are still being written, as pending sales are slightly higher than a year ago.
Pricing is moving in different directions depending on which number you watch. The typical home value is down roughly 15% year over year, yet the median list price has surged more than triple compared with last May, and jumped more than 70% just since April. Sellers appear to be testing higher asking prices, but the average sale-to-list ratio sits below 100% at about 93.5%, showing that buyers often negotiate below list.
Homes in Miller County are taking time to sell, with a median of 78 days on the market recently, compared with quicker timelines seen in many parts of Georgia where supply is similar at around four to five months. Months of supply locally is near 4.2, lining up with the state’s roughly 4.6 months and pointing to a neutral balance between buyer and seller leverage.
