Author’s Note: Realtor.com links are dynamic and change as new information is entered into various multiple listing services. Therefore, the numbers I post in this article may not match what you see on your viewing date at the realtor.com links that I cite as my references. I don’t believe there is a way to make my links static so they will show what I find on my date of this posting.

Author Notes:
When the Southeast Georgia Multiple Listing Service was in existence, it was the multiple listing service that served Waycross (Ware County) and cities, towns, and counties that are close by. Now, with the Southeast Georgia Multiple Listing Service no longer in existence, there is no multiple listing service that primarily markets to Waycross. So, real estate companies that sell in Waycross use various multiple listing services to market their properties.
I used realtor.com as my source because all listings that are entered into any one of the multiple listing services that REALTORS® use are automatically also listed on realtor.com.
This article does not take into consideration for sale by owner houses listed and sold or houses listed and sold by real estate brokers/agents who do not market their listings in any multiple listing service. That information is very difficult to track.
If you are looking to buy or sell in the southeast Georgia area or would like more information on the real estate market in this area or others, I can be contacted by phone at 912.387.9922 or by email at contactmarykelly@gmail.com.
