Savannah Lakes Village Market Report – July 2026
July delivered the strongest closing month of 2026 so far in Savannah Lakes Village, with 16 homes closed and year-to-date sales reaching 65 homes. That puts resale activity well ahead of last year's pace, even as buyers continue to have meaningful selection with 91 homes for sale.
The market continues to show two different stories: resale demand is holding up well, while new construction remains much softer than last year. For sellers, the stronger sales pace is encouraging, but elevated inventory still rewards accurate pricing and strong presentation.
Year-to-Date Snapshot: July 2026 vs July 2025
Through July, 65 homes have sold in Savannah Lakes Village compared with 49 at the same point last year. That is an increase of 32.7% and the clearest sign that resale demand has strengthened in 2026. New construction, however, continues to tell a different story: 33 new home permits have been reported year-to-date compared with 74 at this point last year.

Homes Sold: July Sets the 2026 High
July brought 16 homes closed, the strongest monthly closing count so far this year, bringing year-to-date sales to 65. The last two months alone produced 30 closings, reinforcing that buyers are still moving forward when the right home, condition, location, and price line up.

New Construction: Still Well Below Last Year
New construction remains the softer side of the Savannah Lakes Village market. July's data reports 33 new home permits year-to-date, compared with 74 permits through July last year.
This continuing slowdown in building activity creates an interesting dynamic for the resale market. Buyers who once may have immediately chosen to build are now finding a larger selection of completed homes available without the extended timeline and decisions involved in new construction.

Inventory: More Choice, but Off the Recent High
Inventory declined to 91 homes for sale in July from 95 in June and 96 in May. Buyers still have considerably more selection than they did last summer, but the recent decline is worth watching if sales activity remains strong.
Current inventory includes:
- 26 lake homes
- 24 golf-course homes
- 41 interior homes

Days on Market: Still a Selective Market
Average days on market moved to 170 days in July, up slightly from 166 days in June. That remains above last summer's level and reinforces an important point: stronger overall sales do not mean every listing is moving at the same pace.
Buyers continue to compare homes carefully, particularly when they have multiple properties in the same price range. Homes that combine good condition, appropriate pricing, attractive photography, and a clear lifestyle story are generally in the strongest position.

What This Means for You This Summer
Thinking About Selling?
July's sales numbers are encouraging. With 16 closings in one month and year-to-date sales now nearly 33% ahead of last year, buyers are clearly active. At the same time, 91 competing listings mean sellers still need to make a strong first impression.
- Price against today's competition, not simply what similar homes sold for during a different market.
- Make sure condition, photography, curb appeal, and online presentation make it easy for buyers to understand the home's value.
- Highlight the Savannah Lakes Village lifestyle clearly — lake access, golf, trails, clubs, recreation, and community.
Thinking About Buying?
Buyers still have meaningful choice with 91 homes on the market, but July's 16 closings are a reminder that attractive homes at sensible prices do not necessarily remain available indefinitely.
- Compare lake, golf, and interior homes by overall value, not list price alone.
- Look closely at homes that have been listed longer for possible opportunity.
- Be prepared to act when the right home is priced and presented well.
