The Atlantic, Atlanta GA

Updated September 2026 · Source: FMLS, compiled by the Terence Richardson Group

The Atlantic is a Atlanta community in Fulton County. The FMLS archive we maintain shows 138 closed sales here since January 2020. That's enough to read this market on its own numbers, not Atlanta averages.

Only 10 homes closed in The Atlantic over the trailing 12 months, too few for a reliable median. In 2025, the last year with enough sales, the median was $553,750. Since 2021, the annual median close price has moved from $524,950 to $553,750. That's up 5%. These figures come from the Terence Richardson Group's own FMLS closed-sales archive, refreshed monthly. It's the same data we price from.

As of September 2026, the pace here has been measured. That usually gives buyers room to negotiate. For sellers, week-one pricing discipline is the difference-maker.

TRG proprietary data

How often do listings fail to sell in The Atlantic?

70.6% of The Atlantic listings that left the market in the 12 months through September 2026 failed to sell: 24 withdrawn or expired against 10 closed.

That means nearly half 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.
