Atlanta Real Estate

Welcome to today’s blog entry.  Here is the high rise du jour:  a mighty tower with 40 stories of condominiums defining what it is to be part of a skyline. 

This plain grey building sports balconies on every level. 

This place is great for an urban feel, tucked in beautifully as it is at 16th Street. 

Just in case you were wondering about your new neighbors: they are going to be the new Trump’s towers.  So, timing is everything; if you want to live near by as the building goes up then now is good, but if not then you will need to wait a few years until the new neighbors have been fully built.

You can call this Condo. known by its address: 1280 W. Condominium at 678-999-0910

This is another blog for the families out there, and for those of you looking to ’start a family’.  Happily we live in a nation that does have large public school systems in addition to private and parochial schools.  This is one item its best to appreciate!

You may have heard of the new movement in public school education called ‘the Charter schools’.  These are a new breed in that they are individual schools set apart from the regular school system yet part of it.  This way, the same tax dollars pay for the charter schools. 

The intention of these is to give gifted, unusual, or disadvantaged children and their parents yet another alternative.  You can have ‘normal kids’ and send them to a charter school instead of to a magnet, or instead of trying to find a local private school.  Also, this really intended to help make sure that ‘you don’t have to be rich to get a high quality education’.  Try to see it for what it is.

Today let’s survey some of the different types of homes available in Atlanta for the cost of $170K.  Well, no, that isn’t true.  The price is $170K, the cost depends a great deal on whether you can buy the place outright or whether you take out a mortgage…and if so, how long it runs.

You can get low lying ranch houses with a decent lot at this price.  There are an impressive array of condominiums, townhomes and lofts available within the city at this price range.

The number of bedrooms that you can access at this level is also a range.  One, two and three bedrooms are all possibilities at this point. 

Fresh, brightly painted row houses with crisp new designs are only one of the many ways to go.  Large stately mansion ’shaped’ courtyards are one front style of condominium.  Those just happen to ’suit me’, although there are many other excellent sorts out there.

The following is a paid review of new Internet marketing service called: ReviewMe.

What is ReviewMe?
It is a system where bloggers can make money on reviewing products and services. Companies can get reviews for their new products, valuable feedback and opinions from bloggers who can influence many other people by their reviews. It allows companies to test ideas in very inexpensive ways. Regular users are ignoring ads. Reviews are regular articles. For example like this one. Bloggers can choose which product or service they want to write about. Advertisers can decide what bloggers will get an opportunity to review their products and services.

How bloggers make money?

James Creek is a new fully developed community in Atlanta.  Tree lines streets are but one of the amenities in this private neighborhood.  This type of privacy means that the builders and the neighborhood association have control over matters such as whether or not soliciting is permitted.

The homes in here are decidely middle class, but not ‘the bottom of it’.  The residents are likely to be a mixture of the private and public school types, but mainly because public schools really aren’t meant to be ’schools just for the poor but for people of all economic classes’.

There is a fantastic place to entertain yourself and your family right in your neighborhood.  This is the local clubhouse and we might see it as ‘posh compared to many public parks’ but ‘cheap and even accessible compared to places like country clubs’.  Tennis, swimming, snacks: all of this in this charming community.  Best of all, it is discrete but not gated so you won’t feel like a prisoner.

Welcome back!  Yesterday we opened our discussion about Energy Star homes.  Today, we’re going into this a bit further.

Three years ago, the use of these homes was determined to have reduced toxic ‘greenhouse emissions’ to the same extent that taking 14 million vehicles off of the roads would have done!

How important is this?  When it’s you, it may not seem like that big of a deal:  ‘am I really making a difference by bothering to have an Energy Star home?’…well, you, as part of the group to do so reduced energy costs by $7billion- that’s 9 zeroes! 

Finally, in addition to all this, waste was reduced: how much?  How about an amount of energy that could provide a multiplicity of domestic services to over ten million homes was saved instead of wasted…just think of how much smoke that really is….that, thanks to Energy Star, never went up.

Welcome back.  Today we’re covering another aspect of your home in Atlanta.  Let’s look at energy efficiency.  As you know, like it or not, we are globally connected.  The bad news is that pollution seems to have gotten out of control…the bad news can lead to a sense of helplessness, but what I have today is the antidote to that.

One more question to ask your realtor is:  “Is this an Energy Star home?”  and “Do you have Energy Star home listings?”

Energy Star is one of the many proactive ways that we can use to improve the local and overall environmental quality.  Does it make a difference?  The answer is a strong, resounding YES!  It most certainly does.  In the next blog, we will look at statistics about how much it matters.

Please forgive me if this one is far beyond your means because it is fantastic!  There is a gorgeous 4 bedroom at 940 Springdale Rd. in Druid Hills.  The front and the back of this place are incredibly different, as different, I’d say, as a full grown woman.

The front is yellow, on a spacious lot.  Inside there are what, to those accustomed to ‘high living’ probably feels ‘essential’:  there is a large chandelier that oversees a winding broad staircase.  There is a lovely den, and a fantastic private living room. 

The price tag is also high:  $2.7 Mil…maybe you buy it, then open the place and sell tickets?!  It is a beauty!
