State of the Union Spring 2017: Supply is limited and demand is only increasing!

Spring 2017.     Atlanta Condos, Townhomes and Single Family Homes continue to be in great demand.      For buildings built 2005 and newer, most all of them are hitting new all-time highs.     Buildings built prior to 2005 are split with some hitting new highs, and others still 5-20% below their pre-2008 recession levels.    Continued, historically low interest rates, an ongoing lack of new housing supply for sale, and an improving labor market that is finally surpassing an inflection point, coupled with continued, rapidly advancing Atlanta  rental pricing has pushed more and more people...

State Of The Union: March 2015: A building by building update

It has been a while since I painted some color building by building.    That said, I wanted to run through the latest happenings and prospects of various buildings around Midtown and Buckhead.    For the most part, the economics remain the same.    There is no new supply to the condo market, and as the economy improves month by month incremental buyers continue to enter the demand side of the equation.       Of course I say there is no new supply, and there really has not been any condo building of over 40 units built in the past 8 years, but there is one development finally coming...

2015 could mark the return of the Highrise Condo to the Atlanta market

This article was circulating around the Atlanta Highrise Real Estate professionals this week.     Basically it notes a firm (in fact from what I hear one of many) who are considering making a run at building another highrise condo in Atlanta.    Up until now, all of those new glass Towers that you have seen, both in Midtown and Buckhead, have been Luxury Apartment projects.      The turn of the tide that has already rapidly advanced in cities like Miami, Chicago, and NYC should continue to formulate and develop as the local Atlanta economy continues to improve.     By my estimate,...

Spring 2014 Midtown Glass Highrise Update

Well 2014 is moving right along.  Although it did in fact start slow, the market has seen a ramp-up over the past 30 days.   The poor weather, and interest rates that had started to creep up in January likely put a damper on Buyer’s spirits.     Rates have since come down, thanks to the Ukraine struggles, and people are back in the business of buying hard assets.   In this case Condos.  Working with a number of Midtown Buyers now I have a real good pulse on how the market is trending.      Looking in the system today.   There 100 units listed and pending for Viewpoint, 1010,...

The Atlanta Dining Guide 2014!

As 2014 kicks off, I figured I would denote a few of my top picks in Atlanta.     This is perhaps loose, perhaps a little less structured, but should at least have a place or two to put on your short list.     Many of my clients are relocating to Atlanta, or are staying in one of my Corporate style, fully-furnished units that I either own or manage.   Thus, I figured this would be a great resource for them going forward.   Probably the best list that is continuously updated would likely be the Atlanta Magazine list. http://www.atlantamagazine.com/50bestrestaurants/home.aspx That said,...

State of The Union Year End 2013

The year is quickly coming to a close.      The last client Sale Transaction close for the year was last Friday.   My clients closed on a very nice three story new Duplex style home in the 4th Ward just steps from Inman Park and the Highland Bakery.    With that close it brings the ATL Condo Deals volume for 2013 to $7,000,000 worth of sales transactions.   This of course does not include the rental, or management fee revenue for the year, thus 7 million is a very strong year and is in fact the best year yet for my firm. 2013 being the strongest year should be no surprise.     For...

State of the Union- Market Update Q1 2013 – Up, Up, Up and Off to the races!

So where shall I begin.     The Atlanta Real Estate market is now for sure up, up, up and away.     A little less than 4 years ago I left a solid track record of corporate jobs and decided to dive into Real Estate as both an Investor and an Agent full time.   The move was somewhat risky at the time, but would prove to be both exciting and at very least something new.    Fast forward to 2013 and last year I was the top producing Agent out of a firm of over 100.    My knowledge, expertise and care with regard to my client’s needs has helped me attain my role as one of the top...

Midtown Condo 2 bedroom prices moving up

Ok, so I was looking on the Real Estate system today (August 17, 21012) and noticed something of interest.      There were no true 1100 sq ft+ 2 bedroom glass condos on the market for less than $300k.   This is a first I have seen this since 2009.    In the Fall of 2008 it was nearly impossible to find a true 2 bedroom for under $300k at any of the glass Midtown buildings namely – Viewpoint, Spire, 1010, Plaza Midtown, Luxe, Aqua, and Metropolis.       It seems that this month we have recently started to see this play out again.   There are NO 2 bedrooms under $300k on the...

Spire

This building, completed in late 2005, is a precursor to Viewpoint. I liken it to the stepbrother of Viewpoint. As for the amenities, the gym and pool are lacking compared to Viewpoint.    The pool is on a lower floor, and has a tall gate around it.    The gym has everything you need in terms of cardio and weight training equipment, but it loses points for being compartmentalized as opposed to an open space like Viewpoint, 1010, or Metropolis.    The clubroom (though a tad smaller), theater, and views are just as nice as Viewpoint though.   The good news is that this building is still...
