Home. It's What You Make It and WHERE You Make it. The word "home" is defined in many ways: a house, apartment, or other shelter that is the usual residence of a person, family, or household. 2. the place in which one's domestic affections are centered. 3. an institution for the homeless, sick, etc.: a nursing home. 4. the dwelling place or retreat of an animal. 5. the place or region where something is native or most common. We all know about homes in real estate. We often have to tell our Sellers, "You are not selling your home. This is now a house you are selling and you are taking your memories with you." But we humans are not the only ones that make homes. I've had the wonderful pleasure of watching nature do it's thing when it comes to homes! I had to reduce the picture to fit her...

This chart shows how much water can be saved by replacing an old, inefficient toilet with a Dual Flush HET (High Efficiency Toilet). It compares the water used per person or per family of 4 utilizing a Dual Flush toilet versus all other, currently available toilet models (1.28 per flush, 1.6 per flush and of course all the older models, using 3.5, 5 or even 7 gallons every single time!). The money savings are calculated on the newest approved Water rates in the City of Atlanta. Please contact me if you have any questions.

Thank You Sonny!! More Relief for Home Buyers in Atlanta, GA In addition to the $8000 tax credit available for first time home buyers, Georgians have another reason to celebrate!!! On Monday, May 11, Governor Sonny Perdue signed legislation into law that creates a new state income tax credit for home purchases in Georgia.  The tax credit will apply to purchases of eligible properties between June 1 and November 30, 2009, and is expected to spur activity in the housing market.  Passage of this bill was the top legislative priority for the Georgia Association of REALTORS® in 2009. House Bill 261 provides an income tax credit for the purchase of a single-family residence during the six months between June 1 and November 30, 2009.  The credit amount is the lesser of $1,800 or 1.2 percent of...

Known by many in the Atlanta Metro Area as the Alpharetta Autobahn, Georgia 400 is one of the strongest financial arteries in the southeast.  Fortune 500 companies have offices scattered along this corridor from Buckhead to Cumming and hundreds of thousands of people live adjacent to this commuter highway / toll road.  Most depend upon it to access their higher-than-average wage jobs that affords them a nice lifestyle, nice home, and good schools.  Not every bit of news on the Housing Market is "drastic doom" but you would be hard-pressed to read or hear anything to the contrary.  As a Marketing Major in college I learned quickly that numbers can sometimes be deceiving and numbers can be manipulated.  You may have recently read that home prices in the Atlanta metro-area fell last year b...

Standard & Poor's released the Chase-Shiller Home Price Indices this morning, showing that the decline in home prices in Atlanta seems to be shallowing. The data, good through March 2009, show that the metropolitan Atlanta area experienced a 1.7 percent drop in home prices versus February. February's drop was 2.5 percent versus January. And January's decline was 3.2 percent from December 2008. Still, Atlanta's home prices show a year-to-year decline of 15.7 percent. While three months of smaller declines is a positive sign for the city, home prices nationwide are still experiencing significant downward pressure. Nine of the cities tracked by Case-Shiller in fact had record declines in March.   We'd love to be your Atlanta real estate lawyers. Want to know more? Contact us and we'll be ...

Everyone who has been to Atlanta knows that Buckhead is THE place to be seen. It is the "Beverly Hills" of the South and is composed of old southern money, rock-stars and upwardly mobile professionals...  Garden Hills is a quant and charming Historic neighborhood planned and built in the early 20th-century. It is about 5 miles from the heart of downtown and was a planned residential community Post WWI  when the growing use of private automobiles allowed citizens to live further away from where they worked.  The original plan for the neighborhood was developed by the Garden Hills Company, a real estate firm founded in 1925 by Philip C. McDuffie, a lawyer and real estate entrepreneur.  called the Beverly Hills Subdivision, this development merged with Garden Hills. It includes land used ...

  I tried to look up the word, "owie" that you hear a little kid say when they have hurt themselves, but Webster's does not have it! If you learned how to type, using the "home row " keys versus the hunt and peck method, you will be able to relate to this simple little story. Over the past two days I have been at my house working in my much neglected yard. Trimming and spreading TWO truck loads of mulch in all the landscape beds! Hard work, but it was actually nice to not be doing anything real estate for a couple days! But, maybe as a result of that work, I seem to have caused some very minor injury, and I do mean minor to my left pinky finger. You know, the one that hits the "a" key. NOw you would not think this is a big deal, but just typing this short blog post has resulted in count...

  Taken January, 2008 in Pensacola Beach! From what I read on Facebook, it's not quite this nice there this Memorial Day weekend! So, I just share this and it quickly reminds me of the day that I was there! For those of you that live close to the ocean, don't take it for granted! I wish I could just hop out there for an hour or two right now! Happy Memorial Day Weekend!

Many listing agents falsely make the claim their new fabulous listing is "Upgraded, and Updated!"  To compound this misleading information they only have the front picture of the home, and maybe the yard photos.  There are no interior pictures.  The Agent remarks sound fantastic "Fabulous New Listing in sought after "Give Me A Break Subdivision!"  First time on market! (1) There is no need to preview this home! (2) Upgrades galore!  New kitchen with granite counter-tops and stainless sink! (3) Hardwood floors and new paint throughout! (4) Professionally decorated by owner! (5) Fantastic Master bath with whirlpool tub is newly tiled! (6) Upgraded carpet and pad! (7) Hurry will not last! (8) First time on the market this year! When in doubt, check it out!  There is always a reason to rese...

First time home buyer tax credit - when do I get my refund? Most of what we've heard on the news, tells us that first time home buyers will receive their $8,000 tax credit when they file their 2009 taxes in the Spring of 2010.  That's true, but.... There is flexibility in filing for your first time home buyer tax credit. To get the money into the economy faster, the federal government is giving you a choice of claiming the first-time home-buyer credit on either your 2008 or your 2009 tax return. If you have already filed your 2008 return, you can REVISE your 2008 return, using form 1040X to amend it. Just to confirm, I also checked the IRS website.  Click here to view the IRS article Honestly, the first time home buyer $8000 incentive is just the icing on the cake this year!. When you c...
