Seller leverage is still present, but results depend on how you use it.
If you are asking whether sellers still have the upper hand, the short answer is yes. Cumming, GA had 3.72 months of supply recently, and that still points to a market where a strong listing can negotiate well.
For sellers in Cumming, GA, the market edge is real but it has boundaries. Supply stood at 3.72 months recently, and recent offers landed at 98.2% of asking over the previous 30 days. That supports a confident listing posture, but not a careless one. The typical asking price for active homes was $675,000 last month, while the typical sold price was $577,000. I read that as a clear reminder that leverage does not erase the difference between what sellers hope for and what buyers actually accept. Pricing still decides how much of that edge you keep. Prepare the house before the first showing. Price to create momentum instead of testing the market too high. Use the early response to confirm your position, then negotiate from strength when buyers engage.
