Inventory Holds Steady
Active inventory continued to climb slightly this week, reaching 3,331 active listings across the Savannah MLS service area. Although fewer new listings entered the market compared to last week, buyers still have a wide variety of homes for sale in Savannah and the surrounding communities to choose from.
The steady inventory gives buyers more flexibility while encouraging sellers to focus on competitive pricing and strong presentation.
Buyer Activity Remains Healthy
Pending contracts eased slightly this week, falling from 197 to 182. This type of movement is common during the summer months as buyers take additional time to evaluate available inventory.
Despite the slight dip in new contracts, closed sales increased to 209, indicating that transactions already in the pipeline continue to move successfully toward the closing table.
Home Prices Continue to Show Strength
The average sales price increased to $426,089, an encouraging sign that demand remains healthy across the Savannah area.
Weekly averages naturally fluctuate based on the types of homes that close during a given period. This week's increase reflects continued activity across multiple price points and reinforces the overall stability of the Savannah real estate market.
What This Means for Buyers
Summer continues to offer buyers one of the strongest selections of available homes this year. More inventory means more opportunities to compare neighborhoods, home styles, and price points before making a decision.
However, well-maintained and competitively priced homes continue to sell quickly. Buyers who are pre-approved and working with an experienced local real estate professional are often in the best position when the right home becomes available.

Professional marketing, quality photography, and accurate pricing continue to be key factors in attracting serious buyers and achieving successful results.
Savannah Real Estate Outlook
As June comes to a close, the Savannah real estate market remains well balanced. Inventory is providing buyers with more choices while steady closing activity continues to support sellers.
Looking ahead, we'll be watching inventory growth, buyer demand, and pricing trends as the summer market progresses. These factors will help shape local real estate conditions throughout the second half of 2026.
