How long are luxury homes taking to sell in Brookhaven right now?
Question: How long are luxury homes taking to sell in Brookhaven right now?
Quick Answer: As of October 2025, most luxury homes in Brookhaven are taking about 60 to 90 days to sell, depending on pricing, condition, and location within North Atlanta’s premium neighborhoods.
The Brookhaven Luxury Market in Context
Luxury homeowners in Brookhaven often ask, “How long will it take to sell my home?” It’s a fair question—especially when market conditions in Atlanta are shifting quickly. According to recent trends from Realtor.com and Redfin, homes priced above $1 million in metro Atlanta, particularly in Brookhaven and Buckhead, are averaging around two to three months on market before going under contract.
In contrast, mid-range homes under $800K often sell in half that time. The difference reflects a more discerning buyer pool for luxury properties and the increasing importance of strategic marketing—something Judy Jernigan and her Sage & Grace Realty Group team at The Agency Atlanta have mastered.
What’s Influencing Days on Market in Brookhaven?
1. Pricing Precision
Even in sought-after areas like Brookhaven and Buckhead, buyers are price-sensitive. Overpricing by even 5% can extend days on market significantly. A home listed at the right price—supported by high-end marketing—can attract serious offers in as little as 45 days.
2. Presentation and Positioning
Today’s luxury buyers expect turn-key condition and modern, move-in-ready finishes. Homes that have been updated or staged professionally sell faster. Sage & Grace’s concierge-style listing prep and visual marketing (including cinematic video tours and lifestyle photography) shorten that timeline dramatically.

3. Interest Rates and Buyer Confidence
Higher interest rates have slowed some segments of the luxury market, but Brookhaven’s established appeal—tree-lined streets, proximity to Buckhead shopping, and top-rated schools—continues to attract buyers relocating from both coasts. As Freddie Mac reports, rate stability in late 2025 is helping luxury buyers regain confidence.
