gwinnett county: Lawrenceville - Gwinnett Braves Stadium gets a COOL name - 04/07/10 11:26 AM
The Atlanta Braves have signed a multi-million dollar deal for naming rights to the Gwinnett Braves ballpark in Lawrenceville.
The 16-year deal with Coolray Heating and Cooling will ultimately mean the county will get about a $4.5-million share over the life of the contract, county officials said. The deal also settles a more than year-long effort to sell the naming rights to the $64-million, publicly-financed structure.
Terms of the deal were not disclosed, but Gwinnett County's contract with the Braves calls for the club to receive the first $350,000 annually paid in naming rights, the county to receive the next $350,000 … (1 comments)

gwinnett county: New Act Affects Investors & Tenants - Helping Families Save Their Homes Act of 2009 - 07/08/09 04:04 PM
Repost with extras from GaHomesDigest.com
So you are home in Gwinnett County (the leading county for foreclosures in Georgia) from work relaxing watching re-runs of Friends and suddenly your front door is kicked open and a big burly man with a gun comes in, points the gun at you and claims that he's the sheriff. Sound like something out of the show COPS or maybe a move starring Johnny Depp, but no, it's actually becoming a common occurence in homes all over Georgia.
Now S. 896 "Helping Families Save Their Homes Act of 2009" has come out and has some provisions … (2 comments)

gwinnett county: Gwinnett County Parks Named Best In Nation - 12/08/08 09:22 AM
It typically happens on Highway 124.
I'm taking clients to show them potential homes and it happens. "WHOA! What's that?" they ask.
What they are exclaiming about is one of the parks that make Gwinnett County the single best place to live OTP (or outside the permeter - Suburbs for us folk that are used to it). Sure, Gwinnett County is known for the schools, which aslo known as the best in the state, but the "wow's!" come from the park system.
There are 39 parks in all with over 64 MILES of soft surface and paved trails. Whether it's the … (0 comments)

gwinnett county: Hoschton Wants You ... To Bring A Scarecorw - 08/01/08 06:48 AM
The city of Hoschton is shooting to make a name for itself... in the Guinness Book of World Records. The goal? To bring 4,000 scarecrows throught the Hoschton mailing route. Hoschton, a city of confusion for even wikipedia, is located in 4 counties, including Gwinnett, Barrow, Jackson and Hall. Mill Creek High School, thought to be in Dacula by many locals, known as the "Hamilton Mill High School" as well, is actually in Hoschton, GA. The mailing route includes neighborhoods such as Trilogy Park, Village at Deaton Creek, Reunion, and lesser known area of west Jackson. That's over 5,800 households.

gwinnett county: Listing At Appraisal Value - Good Idea In Gwinnett County? - 05/29/08 06:17 AM
As Realtors "we" can list your home for whatever "we" want. Why else are there so many homes on the market? Most of them were priced incorrectly. So in order to say "I can only price it at appraisal", first, I have to have a valid appraisal. An appraisal from a tax assessor, refinance or even sometime during a purchase is not a valid appraisal. Those appraisals do not take into account current market conditions and only evaluate the past solds. Doing this is like chasing a ball downhill, looking at 3 month data is always going to be problematic in … (1 comments)

gwinnett county: SOLD In 90 Days or Less In Gwinnett: FACT OR FICTION? - 05/07/08 07:29 AM
It's true, the latest absorption report for Gwinnett County places the average home for sale as SOLD in just about 83 days or so.
The two toughest sectors of homes to sell are surprisingly the $120 to $140K range of homes for sale and the $200 to $300K homes. This data reinforces my claim that previous first time home buyers are stuck renting (as they had no business buying homes a few years ago) and that the relocation buyers are still stuck in their state trying to move their home (most common buyer of the $200K to $300K range).
Another disturbing trend is … (4 comments)

gwinnett county: Counter Balance - Real Estate Trends, Life Trends - 03/11/08 08:00 PM
Quantum Leap, Gary Keller's newest (soon to be book) seminar focuses on life and adjusting your life and your business. Keller's comments during Keller William's Family Reunion might as well been entitled, Counter Balance - Balancing Life & Real Estate. The basic premise is that life is cyclical and even more so is Real Estate.
With that being said, it's no surprise that our market is riding the roller coaster back down on prices. Had we all been watching the affordability numbers and compared them to home prices we'd have seen the huge gap here. In addition, when you have mortgage … (1 comments)

gwinnett county: Just Sold for Full Price In Lawrenceville! 587 Riverlanding Drive, Lawrenceville - 11/13/07 06:29 AM
JUST SOLD! In Lawrenceville
This Lawrenceville home for sale, sold with a full price offer. 587 Riverlanding Drive, Lawrenceville GA in the RiverEdge Landing Subdivision off Old Norcross Road was an immaculate house.
When you calculate Seller Paid Closing costs and concessions, the seller got 98% of what they asked for.
Currently, in Lawrenceville, sellers are only getting 95% of what they ask for. Even less when listed as a For Sale By Owner or with a discount company. I'd say that's worth the fee charged for marketing, negotiations and closing coordination.

gwinnett county: Gwinnett County Real Estate and Homes For Sale Market Report: October 2007 - 10/23/07 02:14 PM
Last month I told you that the top 10% were selling and that it was the first time that Metro Atlantans went from keeping 97% of their asking price to 95% - showing an actual 2% depreciation. This month the news is not any better.
With 9,849 Active Properties and only 249 closings last month, you'd had to be in the top 2% to sell. The average days on market has finally squeaked over the 3 month mark as well. So if you aren't in that top 2%, you'll be sitting for quite some time indeed.
The good news is that … (0 comments)

Norcross, one of Gwinnett Counties most industrial of cities and most convenient, is also the most diverse in every sense of the word.

gwinnett county: Gwinnett County Real Estate Market Update - August 2007 - 08/15/07 04:56 AM
August 15, 2007
Gwinnett County Real Estate has always been the tortoise in the great real estate race. Never too slow, but never fast either. This is still the case. In over 15 years of Real Estate, Gwinnett has been a buyer's market. It's a bit more of one now. County wide, sellers are getting just under 97% of their asking price. Although, the numbers are at a new high (for discounts), the Jarvis Team has experienced a rate of 1% better. Although, this is a bit of self promotion, it's also worth noting that a Realtor (or Team) that works hard for … (0 comments)

gwinnett county: Atlanta Real Estate Buyer's Market: Now's the Time To Buy! - 08/06/07 08:07 AM
As I'm putting together numbers for my relaunch of my newsletter and market reports I became quickly aware of the upcoming trends.
The market in Atlanta has always been a buyer's market, it's just more of one now than before (in the past 10 years). This is inclusive to all metro Atlanta counties, such as Gwinnett, Cobb, Fulton, Dekalb, Clayton, Henry and more. However, as the economy swings back around for the better so will home sales. I've noticed an increased rush late this summer as have many other agents.
With the average Atlantan moving every 2 to 3 years, this … (0 comments)
