Bank Foreclosure Gets It Right
Or maybe the title of this post should be “Creating demand in a tough market”. I have an investor client that has been looking at everything that hits the market in his price range, waiting for that great deal, like almost every other buyer seems to be. Occasionally a listing will hit the market at a ... [Continue Reading]
Would you like a $1.2M home for $750,000? | Bargain Hunters Part II – North Fulton
I hate clichés but with interest rates this low and the economy beginning to show signs of improvement-this is the proverbial no-brainer. I challenge you to find another home like these at prices even close to this in North Fulton. ... [Continue Reading]
Final Recommendation District Map Posted for Birmingham Elementary
For as many changes as School Board staff made between rounds two and three in the redistricting process, there were almost no changes from the Final Draft district map to the Final Recommendation map . And it is not like they didn’t get any comments:  Eighty-three pages of comments are posted on the redistricting website ... [Continue Reading]
Would You Like a $700,000 House for About Half Price?  | South Forsyth Executive Homes Hit Bargain Basement Prices
Vickery, South Forsyth – Here’s the deal, and you hear it only here.  The economy is cinching the rope around builder’s necks.  I know an incredibly well respected builder who has built literally hundreds of million dollar homes in the North Atlanta suburbs and not to sound like a car advertisement, says:  "Everything Must Go." ... [Continue Reading]
Seller Financing and House Trade Program Aim to Break Real Estate Market Impasse | The Snorkel Business
ALPHARETTA – Expanding on yesterday’s post about house swaps and real estate log jams, here is a slightly different angle to this problem. Take builders.  I didn’t talk about them yesterday. They are the opposite of the first time home buyer.  They don’t have anything to buy, only a lot to sell -  as opposed ... [Continue Reading]
I’ll Show You Mine If You Show My Yours | Solving the Real Estate Log Jam Problem
ALPHARETTA – We’ve all been there – or at least I think we have – when in order to get something you have to do something uncomfortable first. It’s the old dare: You show me yours and I’ll show you mine. No! You first, I said. Really … I’ll show you mine. Really … I ... [Continue Reading]
New Boundaries Proposed in Draft Plan of Birmingham Elementary Redistricting
ALPHARETTA – Two things are abundantly clear:  First, one of the chief reasons that North Fulton schools are as good as they are is because of incredibly strong parental involvement. Last night’s third round Birmingham Elementary redistricting meeting was attended by approximately 750 people – and this was down from the roughly 1,000 that attended ... [Continue Reading]
White Columns Pre-Foreclosure Finally Becomes Post-Foreclosure
MILTON – Finally. I’m not gloating.  Really, I’m not.  In fact, nothing bugs me more than to listen to newscasters reading market statistics or the dow jones average for the day and hear that small amount of glee that sneaks into their tone.  You don’t hear that when they read that the market was up ... [Continue Reading]
Foreclosure Sale Extended | Opportunity Remains in White Columns
MILTON – This house has nine lives. The foreclosure sale on this White Columns property did not happen this month. It has apparently been extended to the December sale on December 2nd. I never thought that this house would make it this far into the year; someone should get a nice Christmas gift. Will someone ... [Continue Reading]
Buy a Million-dollar House for $50 | What a Stinking Good Idea
Annapolis and Milton – You can buy a million-dollar house for $50 in Annapolis. Now here is the catch: It’s a raffle. You buy a $50 raffle ticket and are entered into a drawing for the house (shown to the right with the porch).  Ten percent of the proceeds also go to support a local ... [Continue Reading]
