How this ranking is built
Ranked on the typical rent for that market. Highest rent first. Rent on its own doesn’t set returns — the rent-to-price relationship does, which is what the cash-flow ranking measures.
179 of 268 published Georgia markets qualify. A market needs at least 5 of the 8 market figures we track, plus a published typical rent. Markets without those figures are left out rather than estimated.
Figures are for September 2026, and refresh monthly. These are market-level estimates — confirm any specific deal with a full Comparative Market Analysis (CMA).

Market figures are estimates of typical conditions, updated monthly, from Zillow Research public data. Coverage varies by market — a market with no published figure for this ranking is left out rather than estimated.
