October Market Fast Stats, Lake Lanier’s Magical Nights of Lights & How to Spot a Real Deal

Welcome to Go Gaddis Real Estate Radio! I’m Cleve Gaddis, here to help you go from real estate novice to expert so buying and selling a home can be done with total confidence and without the fear, confusion, and second-guessing that often come with life’s biggest investments.

In this episode, we’re kicking things off with the Metro Atlanta Real Estate FAST STATS for the entire month of October—what’s up, what’s down, and what these numbers actually mean for buyers and sellers heading into the holiday season.

Next, in our “Something You Should Know About Atlanta” segment, we’re taking you to one of North Georgia’s most beloved holiday traditions: Magical Nights of Lights at Lake Lanier. Whether you’ve never been or you go every year, this sparkling drive-through display is back and brighter than ever.

Then we’re tackling a listener question from David in Peachtree Corners, who asks:
“How do you spot a great deal in a competitive market?”
When homes go under contract faster than you can schedule a tour, it’s easy to feel like the right house is always out of reach. But there are still real opportunities—if you know where (and how) to look. We’ll talk about overlooked listings, strategic timing, pricing clues, and how to identify true value even when the market’s hot.

We’ll also share details about our Upside Program, designed to give homeowners and buyers more clarity, options, and flexibility than ever before.

And a special thanks to our show sponsor, O’Kelley & Sorohan, for supporting this week’s episode.
