Summer Update from Lisa Harris Realty

July 2026

I hope you're enjoying your summer! The real estate market continues to evolve, and I wanted to share a few things happening here in Northeast Metro Atlanta that could be helpful for you, your family, or someone you know.

More Sellers Are Taking Their Homes Off the Market

One trend we're seeing is an increase in homeowners withdrawing their listings rather than selling. In fact, approximately 11-12% of listings in our area are being withdrawn.

That tells me many sellers aren't getting the guidance, pricing strategy, marketing, or negotiation they need to succeed in today's market. If you know someone whose home didn't sell, I'd love the opportunity to provide a second opinion. Sometimes a few strategic changes can make all the difference.

The good news? Every one of my current listings is SOLD. If you're thinking about selling, let's talk about creating a strategy that gets your home to the closing table.

See one of my recent sold listings:

A Busy Week in the News

This week I had the privilege of being interviewed by both Atlanta Business Chronicle and Inc. to discuss today's housing market, recent federal housing legislation, and what these changes may mean for buyers, sellers, and investors.

It's always an honor to help explain what's happening in our local market and bring a Georgia perspective to the national conversation. If you've heard headlines about the housing market and are wondering what they really mean for your situation, don't hesitate to reach out. I'm always happy to answer your questions.

Moving Soon? Don't Forget These Tips!

Whether you're moving across town or across the country, a little planning goes a long way.

A few of my favorite moving tips: Pack an "Open First" box with chargers, medications, coffee, toiletries, towels, and a few days of clothes. Photograph electronics before disconnecting cables. Label boxes by room and include a few key contents. Transfer utilities at least one week before closing. Change your locks and garage door codes after moving in. Take photos of valuable items before movers arrive. Small details like these can make moving day much less stressful!

Have You Seen My New Websites?

I'm excited to share that my brand-new websites are now live! Whether you're thinking about buying, selling, relocating, building a new home, or just keeping an eye on the market, I've created it to be a helpful resource with featured listings, local market updates, videos and media appearances, community guides, home buying and selling tips, luxury homes, golf course communities, 55+ neighborhoods, and so much more!

Neighbor Referral Corner

One of the greatest compliments I can receive is an introduction to your friends, family, neighbors, or coworkers. If someone you know is thinking about buying, selling, relocating, downsizing, or building a new home, I'd love the opportunity to help them navigate today's market with confidence. Your referrals truly mean the world to me.

Thank you for your continued trust and support. I appreciate every recommendation, every conversation, and every opportunity to serve you and our wonderful community.

Have a fantastic month!
