The Messtimate™
The Messtimate
This is a deliberately dumb estimate — living area times a range of recent neighborhood $/sq ft, and nothing else. It is not an appraisal, not market value, and not a valuation of this home. Even a tight range from comparable sales can’t price a specific home — here’s why.
$520,252the mess$570,896
Directional estimate — 5 comparable closed sales within about 10 miles in Bibb County, closed within the last 18 months, same property type, living area within 30% of this home.
Actual list price: $255,000 — compare it against the range above. The Messtimate is a blind sqft estimate; the list price reflects this specific home.
A 10% spread on the same house — and that gap is exactly what an automated guess can't see:
Condition & updates — a 1900 home may have had its roof, kitchen, or HVAC replaced since, or not; sq ft can't see either.
The lot & views — a premium golf, water, or preserve lot vs. a road-facing one: same sq ft, very different price.
Outliers skew it — the band above comes from 5 nearby sales; one flip or distressed sale moves the whole $/sq ft.
Carrying costs & concessions — CDD, HOA, insurance, and seller-paid buydowns change what a buyer actually pays.
And here's what the live market is doing — which the number above ignores entirely:
This home: 1 days on market vs. a 26-day community median
5 active listings competing
≈20.0 months of supply
3 closed here in the last 12 months
For reference, this home is listed at $255,000 ($55/sq ft). The list price is the seller's asking price and is not derived from this range.

Oct 2026 · Development
Macon-Bibb backs $13.5 million purchase of Marriott City Center hotel
County commissioners approved an agreement on Oct. 6 for the Urban Development Authority to buy the 220-room Macon Marriott City Center at 240 Coliseum Drive for $13.5 million. Mainsail Lodging & Development will renovate and manage the hotel and convention center.
Why it matters: Renovation of downtown hotel and convention space supports visitor capacity near the planned arena. The site is about 1 mile east of Pursley.
Industrial Authority approves up to $90 million in bonds for Macon Costco
The Macon-Bibb Industrial Authority approved bonds of up to $90 million on Oct. 5 for a 158,000-square-foot Costco at Wesleyan Drive and New Forsyth Road. This includes a $60 million PILOT bond and up to $30 million for road work around the store. The county commission and school board must still approve.
Why it matters: A major warehouse retailer on the Wesleyan corridor would expand regional shopping access and bring road improvements near the store. The site is about 5 miles northwest of Pursley.
Construction begins on new Macon arena near Second Street
Macon-Bibb broke ground on July 29 on a new arena on an existing parking lot near Second Street. Configurations will seat more than 12,000 for concerts, and the arena is expected to open in late 2028. The current Macon Coliseum stays open during construction.
Why it matters: A new event venue near downtown adds visitor traffic, hospitality demand and event-related activity to the Macon core. The site is about 1 mile east of Pursley.

Per the listing record, 155 Forest Avenue was built in 1900 and has 4,604 sq ft of living area, 7 bedrooms and 3.0 bathrooms. Living area and lot size come from the MLS record and should be verified against the county property appraiser.
What community is 155 Forest Avenue in?

How are property taxes on 155 Forest Avenue estimated?
