Tennessee

<p>Average house values and house sale prices <a href="https://www.realtytrac.com/market-trends/chattanooga-tn/">have seen consistent upward movement in Chattanooga, Tennessee</a>. In May of last year, average property values were around $319k and this month we’re seeing prices closer to $350k. This growth trajectory means it’s a good time for home owners right now. The average home sale prices moved from $265,015 in May 2023 to $281,050 in April 2024 – an increase of 6% YoY.</p>
<p>Moreover, the per square foot valuation further anchors the view of a flourishing market. With an average value growth from $179 in May 2023 to $203 by April 2024 and average sold per square foot value increasing from $173 to $186 in the same period, both metrics provide strong evidence of the strength of the real estate sector in the city.</p>
<p>Last year, the number of properties in the market has fluctuated somewhat, peaking at 557 homes for sale in July 2023 and dipping to 346 in August 2023. As of today, there are <a href="https://www.realtytrac.com/chattanooga-tn/for-sale/">353 homes for sale</a>.  The number of sold homes, on the other hand, declined 7%: from 2,197 in December 2023 to 2,033 by April 2024. This downtrend, albeit slight, provides a different perspective when considering market absorption rates.</p>
