Atlanta’s builders and developers are offering deep discounts and other upgrades.

As you search for your new home in the Atlanta area, you should know the Peach City offers many advantages for buyers. Even though the Homebuyer Tax Credit has expired, Atlanta’s builders and developers are stepping up their promotions in order to entice homebuyers. On top of excellent home prices, many homebuilders are offering substantial discounts, down payment assistance, upgrades and other special offers. For buyers, this means homes and neighborhoods previously priced outside their budget may be well within their reach. Or, those Italian-made cabinets listed under the highest-priced finish package could be tacked onto a buyer’s agreement in order to make a sale.
As you conduct your new home search in Atlanta, be sure to visit each homebuilder’s website—especially if you’re shopping in a new construction community—to read up on the builder’s most up-to-date discounts and add-on deals. You’re likely to find home prices heavily discounted, as well as upgraded finishes and appliance packages available as standard add-ons.

This is the buying opportunity of our lifetime. You hear it in the news almost daily. But how do you take advantage of it? Is a home that is discounted 30% off its original price a better deal than one that is 10% off? Not necessarily. Is a “bargain” in one area of town a better investment than one in another area?
Absolutely. If you’re new to Atlanta, how do you know which home to buy? You need local knowledge and experience. We can help. With an average 30 years in Atlanta, our agents know Atlanta. Let us help you make the right buying decision for you.
