atlanta home buyers: In Praise of Buyers - 03/13/09 04:18 PM
I think buyers these days get a bad rap.  Too many Atlanta real estate agents complain that buyers are too cautious, they want to look at too many homes, they want to buy homes for pennies on the dollar, they are low balling sellers and walking away from the deal if they don't … (31 comments)

atlanta home buyers: Buy a Home with Resale in Mind - 02/25/09 08:14 PM
During the boom times all the 'real estate 101' rules went out the window along with common sense.  Buyers were caught up in a sea of presumed intense competition. They purchased anything and everything without giving any thought to future value.  No questions asked!  They were consumed by the moment, and many … (11 comments)

I know that December is normally a very slow time of the year.  There usually aren't a lot of buyers in the market, but when there are, they tend ot be good ones.  In fact December sales usually are the least of any month when compared to the rest of the … (56 comments)

atlanta home buyers: Have You Seen the Spring Bounce in Real Estate? - 05/20/08 11:30 PM
I have always referred to the spring real estate market in Atlanta as the "Spring Bounce!"  I call it that because the market is known to jump from dead to red hot overnight!  May and June are normally our biggest months for closings, but not so this year.  In the heat … (27 comments)

Where are the Atlanta home buyers?  There are over 86000 homes for sale in Atlanta! Atlanta home buyer traffic is unusually slow for this time of year!  With new Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac limits, it is amazing that buyer traffic has only picked up minimally!  30 year fixed rate financing … (8 comments)
