Posted by on Mar 28, 2009 in Atlanta Neighborhoods | 1 comment

If you want to be almost guaranteed of seeing someone walking a Golden or Labrador Retriever, then drive through Brookhaven. Some consider it part of Buckhead some think of it as a separate community. Regardless, it has some architecturally significant and truly elegant Atlanta homes. The historic Capital City Club anchors the neighborhood with its golf course. It’s why the homes in Brookhaven Atlanta are in high demand. It’s one of those neighborhoods whose boundaries seem to mysteriously grow larger as neighboring communities try to piggyback on its cache. This has caused some...

February 2009 Metro Atlanta Housing Reports

Posted by on Mar 26, 2009 in Atlanta Homes Sale | 0 comments

You can view the February Metro Atlanta housing reports on my blog. The Metro Atlanta sales averages are significantly down from this point last year. When looking at the reports remember that Buckhead is area 21, Dunwoody is 121 and Sandy Springs is 131 and 132. Also, be sure to notice the reports are differentiated by new construction and resales. The summary letter is here and the detailed numbers are here.

Unique Buyer Incentives at Buckhead's Terminus

When I first read that the new Terminus condos in Buckhead were offering buyer incentives, I almost skipped the article. The idea of reading about another condo complex offering $5,000 in upgrades seemed redundant to me. Since I live two blocks from the Buckhead buildings and have always been impressed with Cousins Properties, I decided to read the article. What they have decided to offer, for their upscale Buckhead condos, is unprecedented in the Atlanta condo market. Guaranteeing the value of the condos for the first three years. Buyers can walk away, during that timeframe, without any...
