Below are single family and condo results for the month and for January through October, and what they suggest for buyers and sellers. Brookhaven includes areas such as Ashford Park, Lenox Park and the streets around Town Brookhaven, and conditions can differ from one block to the next, so treat these as citywide measures.

What Do the Brookhaven Numbers Mean for Buyers?
Buyers of single family homes in Brookhaven faced quick timelines in October 2026, with a median of 13 days on market and a list to sold price ratio of 99%. Condo buyers saw a different pace, with a median of 60 days on market and a ratio of 99.4% (FMLS, October 2026).
Single Family Buyers
Homes that were priced in line with the market did not wait long. A 99% ratio means final prices landed very close to list prices, so there was little gap to negotiate on homes that drew attention. The month's 39 new listings gave buyers more to choose from than the 32 listed in October 2025, which helps when comparing options across Ashford Park, Lenox Park and other parts of the city.
Condo Buyers
The longer median of 60 days gives condo buyers more time to compare units, read association documents and tour more than once. Location often drives the decision. Some buyers focus on the area near Town Brookhaven and the Peachtree Road corridor, while others look closer to the MARTA Brookhaven/Oglethorpe station or along Buford Highway. The neighborhoods page is a useful place to compare these areas before touring.
What Do the Brookhaven Numbers Mean for Sellers?
Sellers of single family homes in Brookhaven saw a median of 13 days on market in October 2026 and a 99% list to sold price ratio, which points to solid results for homes priced in line with the market. Condo sellers worked with a median of 60 days and should plan for a longer timeline (FMLS, October 2026).
Single Family Sellers
The average list price of sold homes was $1,212,500 and the average sold price was $1,192,050, a gap that the 99% ratio reflects. Year to date the ratio is 99.2% compared with 98.5%. With only 10 sales in the month, comparable closings are limited, so a market analysis from a local agent that weighs the specific street, lot and condition of the home adds detail the citywide figures cannot.
Condo Sellers
Condo sellers saw a 99.4% ratio in October, so accepted offers landed close to list price, but they took longer to arrive. The year to date ratio is 97.9%. Accurate pricing from the first day, careful presentation and clear information about the building help a listing stand out during a longer marketing period.
Reading the Brookhaven Trend: What the Data Suggests
The October 2026 figures show Brookhaven single family homes selling quickly with fewer closings, and condos taking longer with fewer closings. This is a reading of recent data, not a forecast. Following the same measures month to month is the most reliable way to see if these patterns hold (FMLS, October 2026).
Signals to Watch
- New listings compared with sales: single family new listings rose 21.88% in October while sold listings fell 47.37%. If listings keep outpacing closings, available inventory grows. If closings catch up, inventory tightens.
- Days on market: the single family median of 13 days is the same as the year to date median, while the condo median of 60 days is above the year to date median of 43.
Limits of the Data
One month of data, especially one with 10 single family sales and 5 condo sales, can shift sharply with a few closings. The year to date figures smooth that out, and the figures here describe all of Brookhaven, not any one street or building.
