Executive Brief: Daily St. Simons Island Market Update
David Burton, Realtor® | Keller Williams Realty • August 29, 2026 7:12 AM • 187 Active Single-Family
Executive Market Takeaway
August 29 shows 187 active single-family at median $1.2M and 91.2 DOM. Three new listings at 1-4 ADOM and four price cuts at $845K-$1,045K and $2.495M waterfront create immediate buyer windows with no closings today indicating selective demand.
Market Interpretation: Critical Takeaways
With 71.1% at $850K+ (133 homes) and 39 at $2M+, luxury dominates but four price cuts today show $845K-$899K and $1,045,000 need repositioning. Sub-$850K is only 54 homes (21 under $650K + 33 $650K-$849K) offering velocity advantage. New listings at 1 ADOM (Sanctuary Cove $850K) prove fresh inventory gets attention. Sellers must price to $1.2M median and 91.2 DOM reality, not 150+ ADOM stale. Coming Soon at Peachtree Street $1,135,000 adds future pressure.
| Single-Family Price Tier | Active Listings | Market Share |
|---|---|---|
| Under $650,000 | 21 | 11.2% |
| $650,000 - $849,999 | 33 | 17.6% |
| $850,000 - $1,999,999 | 94 | 50.3% |
| $2,000,000+ | 39 | 20.9% |
