A Buckhead condo with multiple offers by day five, two markets one minute apart, and our summer at the Center for Puppetry Arts.
Hi there —
Once a month, on the first Tuesday, I'll send you a note. The same three things every time: a tip for buyers or sellers, what I'm watching in the Atlanta market, and a little of what's happening in my world.
Here's July's.
Stan called me last winter. He'd been in his Buckhead condo for ten years — moved there from Florida, built a quiet life after his wife passed. Now it was time to be near his granddaughter in Sacramento.
Ten years of accumulated life is real. The furniture, the objects, the pieces of a life that mattered to him and would overwhelm anyone else. If you've been in a home more than a few years, you know the feeling.
So we started with one call — to an estate sale planner.
Here's what most people get wrong about estate sales: they assume you have to have passed away, or own a home full of antiques, to have one. Neither is true. An estate sale is simply a professionally run sale of your household items, held in your home. Everyday furniture. Kitchen things. Books, lamps, tools. If you're downsizing, relocating, or clearing out years of accumulated life, you can have one — and you don't need a single expensive item to make it worth doing.
I live on the Mechanicsville side of this interstate.
Summerhill and Mechanicsville sit just one minute apart, just south of downtown. They share the new Publix on Hank Aaron Drive. But crossing the interstate feels like entering a different housing market. The latest numbers tell two very different stories...
