Pleasant Acres
Homes for Sale in Austell, GA
True comps, carrying-cost math, and listings before the portals.
Over the 12 months ending 2026-09-03, 5 recorded sales closed at a median of $312,000, $138 per square foot, a median 80 days on market, sellers accepting 95% of original asking (-21% versus the prior year). At the median price and Cobb County's 2025 rate of 27.16 mills, annual property tax runs about $3,390.
With a median price of $312,000 against a median price per square foot of $138.08, Pleasant Acres reads as a value-oriented pocket of Austell rather than a premium-finish market. That ppsf level suggests homes here are being priced on square footage and condition more than on upgrades or a scarcity premium, which gives buyers room to evaluate properties on their actual bones rather than paying for a story.
The median 80 days on market is the number that matters most right now. That is a longer runway than a tight market would allow, and it tells sellers that pricing has to be right from day one — overpricing here sits, it does not sell at a premium later. For buyers, it means there is time to inspect, negotiate, and walk away from a property that does not check out, without the pressure of a bidding war.

Who Pleasant Acres is best for.
Best for
- Looking for a lower per-square-foot entry point in Cobb County without paying for shared amenities.
- Willing to take the time — inspections, negotiation, comps review — that an 80-day market allows.
- Buying a home to hold and improve over time rather than one bought turnkey at a premium.
Probably not for
- Needing a clubhouse, pool, or other maintained community amenity as part of the purchase.
- Selling on a tight timeline and expecting a fast, above-median close given current pace.
- Relying on a large closing sample to validate pricing before making a decision.

The Pleasant Acres buying strategy.
If we were buying in Pleasant Acres 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.
Move deliberately, not desperately. Neither side has a decisive edge, so a well-prepared, fairly-priced offer wins without overpaying.
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 Pleasant Acres.
Reading the Numbers in Pleasant Acres
The closings sample here is thin — five transactions in the current window — so every stat should be treated as directional, not definitive. A median price of $312,000 and a per-square-foot figure just over $138 both point toward a market where value is set by size and condition, not by a shared amenity package or a branded lifestyle. There is no clubhouse, pool, or gate showing up in the listing data to anchor pricing; what buyers are paying for is the house and the lot.
The 80-day median days-on-market figure is the clearest signal of posture. That is not a market where homes move in a week. Sellers who price realistically against comparable closings will still find buyers, but the data does not support testing the top of the range and waiting for a bidding war. Buyers, in turn, should expect to do real due diligence — inspections, comps, negotiation on repairs — because the pace of the market allows for it.
The location and the amenities are priced into every listing in Pleasant Acres. The deal is won or lost on condition, the comps, and the renovation math.
Why work with Momentum here
In a market with a small closing sample and an extended days-on-market figure, pricing a listing or structuring an offer takes more than pulling an average off a report. We track how each of the recent closings actually compares on size, price per square foot, and time on market, so sellers price to move rather than to sit, and buyers know when 80 days of leverage is worth using at the negotiating table.
