Jon's Current Read

Fairington Enclave is pricing around a $225,000 median, which works out to roughly $150.84 a square foot. That per-foot number is a useful reference point here because it tells you the market is valuing square footage and condition more than any amenity package — the MLS data shows no community amenities tied to current listings, so buyers are paying for the house itself, not a clubhouse or pool line item.

A median of 56 days on market is on the slower side, which tells sellers to price realistically from the start rather than testing the ceiling, and tells buyers there is usually room to negotiate on terms or closing costs rather than needing to compete on speed. With only 9 closings in the current window, treat any single data point here as directional, not a guarantee of where the next sale lands.

Fairington Enclave right now

🟡 Balanced market. 1.5 months of supply and 0% of the inventory already under contract put buyers and sellers on roughly even footing.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. Confidence: Medium (1 active and pending listings, 9 closed sales in 12 months).

🟡 Off the recent peak. The trailing-12-month median ($225K) is down 5.9% from the prior 12 months ($239K). With about 6 sales a year, a single closing can swing this number, so read the level and the decade, not one year's move.Momentum Research, record-level Georgia MLS closed sales, 12-month windows ending September 20.

The 60-Second Overview

Fairington Enclave market snapshot (as of September 20, 2026): the median sale price is about $225K ($151 per sq ft over the trailing 12 months of closed sales), a median 56 days on market for closed sales, and 1.5 months of supply, a balanced market. The trailing-12-month median is down 6% from the prior 12 months, computed from record-level Georgia MLS closed sales (9 closings in the current window).

Fairington Enclave sits in Lithonia within DeKalb County, with pricing and pace driven almost entirely by the individual homes on the market rather than shared community features.

Best for

  • Evaluating a home primarily on square footage and per-foot value rather than shared amenities.
  • Willing to negotiate on price or terms given a slower, 56-day median pace.
  • Comfortable doing extra diligence given a small recent closings sample.

Probably not for

  • Requiring on-site community amenities as part of the purchase decision.
  • Needing a fast, high-volume comparable set to price with confidence.
  • Expecting a quick resale timeline based on current days-on-market data.

If we were buying in Fairington Enclave today, this is the order of operations we would run for our clients.

1

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.

2

Match the home to real comps. Recent sales of similar condition and lot, not the asking price, tell you what a home is worth.

3

Move deliberately, not desperately. Neither side has a decisive edge, so a well-prepared, fairly-priced offer wins without overpaying.

4

Line up financing and inspection early. A pre-approval and an inspection plan let you act fast and negotiate from evidence.

5

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 Fairington Enclave.

Best Buy
Buying based on square footage and condition rather than shared amenities.
Biggest Risk
A small closings count means recent data can shift quickly as new sales are added.
Sweet Spot
Homes priced near the $225,000 median where condition and layout justify the per-foot number.
Avoid If
Avoid if you are counting on community amenities as part of the value equation.

What the numbers actually say

The $150.84 median price per square foot is the number to anchor on when comparing homes here to anything nearby — it strips out size differences and gets closer to what condition and finish level are actually worth in this pocket of Lithonia. Because no amenities are showing up in current listings, that per-foot figure is doing the work a clubhouse fee or HOA line item might do elsewhere: it is the clearest signal of what the market is paying for structure and upkeep alone.

A 56-day median days-on-market is longer than a fast-moving market would show, and combined with a small closings count of 9, it suggests this is a community where individual listings move on their own timeline rather than in a predictable wave. That argues for pricing a listing carefully at the outset and for buyers doing real diligence on condition before assuming the per-square-foot math will hold.

The location and the amenities are priced into every listing in Fairington Enclave. The deal is won or lost on condition, the comps, and the renovation math.
