About Fulton County
Fulton County is the metro's spine and its widest price spectrum. It runs from Chattahoochee Hills in the far southwest to Milton's estates in the far north. Really, it's three markets in one: North Fulton's tech corridor along GA-400, Atlanta inside the Perimeter from Buckhead through the BeltLine neighborhoods, and South Fulton's value corridor along I-85 South. That's why we publish the split below. A single Fulton median blends markets that behave nothing alike.
Beyond the numbers
Three markets in one county
A single Fulton median blends markets that behave nothing alike, so we publish the split. North Fulton sits north of the river. Fulton ITP is inside the I-285 Perimeter. South Fulton runs outside the Perimeter to the southwest. Each shows its own trailing-12-month FMLS numbers as of September 2026.

TRG proprietary data
How often do listings fail to sell in Fulton County?
44.7% of Fulton County listings that left the market in the 12 months through September 2026 failed to sell: 9,023 withdrawn or expired against 11,144 closed.
That means about 1 in 3 of those listing attempts ended without a sale, after the prep, the showings, the waiting. Each relisting counts separately, so this measures attempts, not homes. Pricing and the first two weeks have a lot to do with which group a listing lands in, and it's the number listing agents almost never show you.
