Decatur Townhome: Under Contract in 15 Days

We got this under contract in 15 days & have a backup offer in!  http://connie.cousins-baker.harrynorman.com/4309844 City of Decatur has become extremely appealing due to school district, city amenities, proximity to Emory & CDC, walkability, and easy access to downtown Atlanta.  It’s also one of the few areas now with a resurgence in new construction.

Brookwood Hills Neighborhood

 

The Brookwood Hills neighborhood of Atlanta is a fantastic residential neighborhood that was established in 1922.  Located in south Buckhead just a few minutes from the midtown arts and business district, Brookwood Hills offers convenience to all the city has to offer.  The neighborhood offers renovated and new homes with an avg sale price in the mid $700′s.  There are just 14 homes on the market now, and the renovated 4 bedroom home I saw today can be seen at http://connie.cousins-baker.harrynorman.com/4267646

 

Property Tax & Tax Appeals

If you purchase a home in 2012, the new Ga Code requires that the property taxes be based on a value no higher than the purchase price. So if you got a great buy on a home for $500,000 and the current tax value is $600,000, your taxes for 2013 will be based on the $500,000 purchase price.  And, you can appeal the $600, 000 value for 2012.  See the info below from our Harry Norman closing attorney affiliate, Campbell & Brannon.

Downtown Decatur Townhome

We have a fantastic new listing in downtown Decatur.  This floorplan in Swanton Hill rarely comes on the market and is a gem!  Walk to downtown Decatur and have access to City of Decatur schools.  See details at http://connie.cousins-baker.harrynorman.com/4309844

Home prices in Atlanta continue to favor

Home prices in Atlanta continue to favor buyers. As prices have declined, mortgage rates continue to be historically low as well. We are routinely seeing buyers get interest rates below 4%! See article in Atlanta Business Chronicle with some of the latest info. http://ow.ly/8eIwx
