Cash-buyer and investment activity over the last 12 months.
Data last updated
In Georgia, investors own about 7,141 tracked properties across 211 active buyers, with a median investor purchase price near $837,000. 1,849 were acquired in the last 12 months.
Georgia has 211 active cash buyers holding roughly 7,141 properties. Over the last 12 months they averaged about 8.8 purchases each, which points to a market worked by repeat, high-volume operators rather than one-off purchasers — expect a smaller set of names to account for most of the deal flow.
Acquisition pace is accelerating. Investors bought 1,849 properties in the last 12 months against roughly 1,589 the year before — up about 16%. Competition for contracts is rising, and buyers who were quiet a year ago are active again.
The median investor purchase lands near $837,000. The average of $2,944,000 sits well above that median, which means a tail of higher-priced deals is pulling the mean up — most activity is happening below the average, and pricing a deal off the median is the safer read.
The dominant play is buy & hold, at 100.0% of tracked activity. Buy-and-hold capital prices for yield rather than resale margin, so rent support matters more to these buyers than after-repair comps.
Activity is not spread evenly. ZIP 30058, 30038 and 30034 are absorbing the most investor purchases in Georgia, and they are the fastest place to start if you are building a buyer list from scratch before working outward through the rest of the state.
