Pre-Holiday Cheer for Atlanta Housing Market

There is reason for some pre-holiday cheer in the Atlanta Housing Market! Numbers just released for October show the strongest year to year percentage increase in closings since May of 2006. According to Marietta, GA based Smart Numbers, there were 4,532 closings in October for all single family. After reported &quot;lag closings&quot; the increase should be at least 15% from October 2008.

While the average price single family detached homes ($201,... ]]> </description>

            <title>Atlanta Real Estate Inventory Down 10% from 2008</title>
            <description> <![CDATA[ 
Many sources have predicted that the Atlanta housing market would hit bottom and begin a slow but steady recovery in late 2009. It sure seems like that is the case today as a new report shows months of inventory for single family detached housing in June reduced to 12 months verses 13.6 months in June 2008. This is a positive sign that while the economy is still weak, the housing market is beginning a slow turn to the positive.

The average sale price for detached housing in June was $217,790 i... ]]> </description>

What are the best schools in Atlanta? Well it depends on who you ask. If you ask a parent, they are going to give you their own &quot;world view&quot; of the school system. Ask a disgruntled parent and they will tell you the school is pure evil, ask the valedictorian's parents and you'll get a completely different story. Ask a new teacher and she's overwhelmed, ask a retiring teacher and he may be burned out. Ask a principal and everything is grand! You get the idea.

            <title>3 Keys Pointing to Atlanta Housing Recovery</title>
            <description> <![CDATA[ 
Read an article written today from SmartNumbers, a local research firm that assembles and interprets real estate data in Atlanta. Based on the statistical information in that letter, there are several reasons to believe that the Atlanta housing market is recovering, in spite of almost 10% unemployment.

1) 3 straight months of increased sales prices for single family detached housing. 

2) Inventory is shrinking. In May of 2009, there are 53,081 properties (homes, condos, land, commercial) &amp;nbs... ]]> </description>

So you've decided you're moving to Atlanta. First of all, let me say that it is one of the finest places in the country to live. The only negatives are traffic and August, the hottest month of the year that gives Atlanta the nickname &quot;Hotlanta&quot;. This morning I chatted with someone moving here from Wichita, Kansas who lives in a small town of 4,000 people.
