What are Short Sales?

Lately, I have noticed a lot more “short sales” happening in the condo/housing market in Atlanta, and wanted to learn more about them, so I started doing a lot of research. I have found a couple of good articles for buyers about short sales and the pros and cons that can occur with one. […]

Congratulations Oakland Park!

I wrote about Oakland Park a few months back, but wanted to update you on the award the development has received. Oakland Park is now a certified green project. The development recently celebrated the LEED (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design) Silver certification.
Oakland Park is the first multi-family project in Atlanta to receive […]

Foreclosures in Buckhead (zipcode 30305)

There are 14 foreclosures/corporate owned condos and lofts in the 30305 zipcode. This zipcode of course includes Buckhead (along with sections of Pharr Road and East Paces Ferry.)

I thought I would write on a restaurant since I enjoy eating at many of them in our fair city.  I chose Radial as the first one I would write about because it is in the midsts of condo, loft, and town-home central right on Dekalb Avenue.  I also chose it because it is ONE of the two restaurants […]

Kirkwood Station - Live in a City Neighborhood

 
Condos, lofts, and townhomes aren’t just in Mid-town, Buckhead, or Downtown.  Some reside in great urban neighborhoods in the city.   One such place in Kirkwood is the Kirkwood Station.  These fairly new townhomes tout themselves as being at the intersection of hip and historic…which I like, because it is true.  Once thought of as a suburb of […]
