Buying a home in the Atlanta area. . . . Check out the highs and the lows!

The highs and lows. . .hmmmmmm?  That could carry a number of meanings.  Are we talking about prices, values, rates or construction activity?  No, nothing that complicated.  Are you curious about the highest priced homes for sale in the Atlanta area and the lowest price? Yes, that is the "high and low" that I am talking about today.  While compiling some sales figures for the area, I came across these homes.  The first, is a 2 bedroom 1 bath brick home in Atlanta and is currently on the market for . . .are you ready? . . . .$4,500. . . .  No. . .not $45,000. . . . . I said $4,500

All major credit cards accepted . . . .  




The next lowest is also in town and boasts 3 bedrooms, a large deck, and fenced yard listed for a whopping $6,600.  Both of these houses obviously need work but neither are "falling down".   Those are mind boggling prices for a house in any condition.  What's the land worth?

And for the rest of you, who are interested in the opposite end of the spectrum, we have a 9 bedroom,  15 bath home on 2 acres in Buckhead.  Including the 16 fireplaces, heated pool, and 7 full kitchens this one is for sale for only $22,500,000.  Just in case you are interested in additional details. . . the property taxes show $132,500 per year. . . .No Problem!   For those of you who are perfectly fine with the runner up, it is a 7 bedroom 20 bath house on 72 acres in Forsyth County.  Complete with 10 fireplaces, heated pool, private golf course, 12 car garage and fully furnished all for a paltry sum of $18,000,000 (recently reduced from $28,000,000) A deal for the taking!



The highs . . . .and the lows. . . . WOW!





The real story here is the number of deals that exist in all price ranges around Atlanta.  If you have questions or comments about homes in any price range. . .please let me know.
