real estate agent: Clark Howard Finally Fires the Starting Pistol to Start the Race For Atlanta Home Buyers - 04/16/12 11:18 PM
Home buyers who have been sitting on the sideline waiting to buy a home finally heard the starting pistol fired by consumer advocate Clark Howard.  Clark told potential Atlanta home buyers listening to WSB radio (am 750) to start the home buying process.
The Atlanta housing market is a tale of two cities right now.  
Inside I-285: the housing market is close to leveling out with an equal number of buyers and sellers.  Home prices have firmed up and sellers are receiving multiple offers on their homes if the listing was priced competitively.
Outside I-285: we continue to have more … (0 comments)

Livsey Elementary School in Tucker Georgia is on the list of 14 schools the DeKalb County Board of Education may close.  Budget shortfalls and a declining revenue from property taxes has brought the school system to a decision point about excess capacity in existing school facilities.

real estate agent: Can Emory University Maintain the Emory Advantage Tuition Grant Program? - 12/28/10 04:03 AM
Emory Unviersity has spent more than 6 million dollars on the Emory Advantage Program, which was designed to allow students whose families make less than $50,000 a year graduate debt free. And to provide students whose families earn $50,000 to $100,000 annually an opportunity to graduate with no more than $15,000 in debt.
Emory tuition is presently $38,600 a year.
When the program was implemented in 2007 it was budgeted at $3 million dollars a year.
The present economic conditions have pushed a lot of middle class families into the program.
Emory is spending nearly twice as much as planned to make … (0 comments)

real estate agent: How do real estate listing agents know when someone shows my home? - 11/13/10 02:06 AM
In Atlanta Georgia GE Supra key boxes are the main way real estate agents make keys available to showing agents at homes they have listed for sell.  Typically, MLS listings will have a line with "showing instructions" that tell an agent the correct protocol for showing a home.

"Call 770-999-8888 before showing" or "call listing agent before showing" are common showing instructions.  Other houses might have " "vacant house, go and show anytime"  or "Baby in house needs special lead time before showings"  The absolute kiss of death in the Atlanta market right now is the showing instruction: "appointment only".  … (0 comments)

real estate agent: Emory University Relocation Clients Look for Atlanta Home - 09/19/10 09:52 AM
Emory University Relocation Clients Look for Atlanta Home
Emory University and The Centers for Disease Control are two fo the major employers in my neighborhoods.  These two institutions are the back bone of our local economy.  Local neighborhoods are filled with employees of the two employers and both employ primarily white collar professionals.
If something happened to either one of these employers, local real estate values would sink like a rock.  I often wonder if real estate values have stabilized in cities dependent on a single industry for most of their jobs.  Particularly if the industry hits on hard times as some … (0 comments)

GET READY NOW TO SELL YOUR ATLANTA HOME THIS SPRING!
More than ever, sellers must have their homes in sparkling condition before they are placed on the market.  Competition is intense, because more homes are on the market now than in any other point in recent history.  When faced with a decision between two similarly-priced properties, buyers will almost always choose the property that is in the best condition.  Only when two properties are in similar condition will the property that costs less hold the upper hand.
Buyers are thinking differently in today's real estate market.  They are much more likely … (0 comments)
