Celesta's numbers point to a tight, fast-moving pocket of the Scottdale market. A median of just over 10 days on market means homes here are not sitting — pricing that reflects current condition and location tends to draw offers quickly, and sellers who overshoot risk losing that early-buyer momentum.
At a median price of $588,884 and roughly $260 per square foot, this is a mid-to-upper price point for the immediate area, so the math has to work on a per-square-foot basis as much as on the headline number. With no defined amenity package showing up in current listings, value here is being driven by the home itself and its DeKalb County location rather than by shared community features.

🟢 Buyer-leaning market. 10.2 months of supply and 0% of the inventory already under contract give buyers above-average negotiating leverage.Why it matters: months of supply is how long today's inventory would last at today's sales pace; under-contract share is the portion of homes for sale that already have a buyer.Momentum Research analysis of Georgia MLS records, as of September 20, 2026.

Who Celesta is best for.
Best for
- Moving with financing pre-approved and ready to submit a competitive offer within days of touring.
- Prioritizing a specific home and its features over a shared amenity package, since none is currently identified.
- Comparing DeKalb County price-per-square-foot data closely and wanting a benchmark to negotiate against.
Probably not for
- Needing an extended decision timeline before making an offer.
- Specifically seeking a community with defined shared amenities like a pool, clubhouse, or gated entry.
- Wanting a large inventory of active listings to compare side by side before choosing.
Schools
- DeKalb County School System
- Verify the zoned schools by address
- Magnet and choice options may be available
- McLendon · Elementary
- Druid Hills · Middle
- Druid Hills · High

The Celesta buying strategy.
If we were buying in Celesta today, this is the order of operations we would run for our clients.
Underwrite the condition first. Price the roof, HVAC, and systems honestly before judging any list price; condition swings value here more than square footage alone.
Match the home to real comps. Recent sales of similar condition and lot, not the asking price, tell you what a home is worth.
Use your leverage. With inventory sitting, there is room to negotiate on anything dated or overpriced and to ask for repairs or a rate buydown.
Line up financing and inspection early. A pre-approval and an inspection plan let you act fast and negotiate from evidence.
Keep an agent in your corner. The listing agent works for the seller; we represent you and prepare a hand-built valuation before any offer in Celesta.
What the numbers are actually saying
With a median days-on-market of 10.5 across the tracked closings window, Celesta is behaving like a seller-favorable environment right now — homes priced in line with the market are not lingering. That is useful information for buyers: decisions need to be made quickly once a listing looks right, because a slow, deliberative offer process risks losing the property.
The median price of $588,884 and price-per-square-foot of $260.37 give a workable benchmark, but with only a handful of closings feeding this snapshot, treat both figures as a starting point for comparison rather than a hard ceiling or floor. No community amenities are identified from current MLS listings, so this is a market defined by the individual homes on the ground, not by a shared clubhouse, pool, or gate.
The location and the amenities are priced into every listing in Celesta. The deal is won or lost on condition, the comps, and the renovation math.
Why work with Momentum here

We track the DeKalb County comps in real time so pricing conversations — on either side of the transaction — are grounded in what is actually closing, not guesswork.
