How to read these figures
The Zillow Home Value Index estimates the value of a typical home in the middle third of the market, single-family homes and condos together, smoothed and adjusted for the season. It covers all homes, not just those that sold, so it moves slowly. It is the best single number for “what is a typical Sandy Springs home worth.”
Median sale price is the middle price of homes that actually sold that month, condos and single-family homes together, so the mix of what sells moves it a lot: Zillow’s raw number was $531,500 in March 2026 and $715,000 in June 2026. Read the trend over several months, not one.
Days to pending counts the days from listing to an accepted offer. The August figure of 62 days was well above July’s 37 and April’s 18. A single month for one city can swing widely, so wait for the next few months before reading much into it.
The FHFA House Price Index tracks repeat sales of the same homes with mortgages backed by Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac. FHFA does not publish an index for Sandy Springs alone; the closest is the Atlanta-Sandy Springs-Roswell metropolitan division, which includes Fulton County. Its index rose 1.04% in the year to the second quarter of 2026. The index measures change, not price.
