Atlanta Condos For Sale

West Highlands Atlanta | A Midtown West Community

by

 

Living ITP (Inside The Perimeter) in Atlanta can often mean you have to give up many of the features you’d like to have in a home. Like, living in a condominium INSTEAD of a single family home. Ah, never fear, you don’t have to worry! Just take a look at West Highlands!

West Highlands Atlanta | A Midtown West Community

 

West Highlands Brock Built Homes Midtown WestWest Highlands is a new construction single family home community, just minutes West of Midtown in Midtown West! This is a Brock Built community, and having toured these homes on numerous occasions, I can tell you….they are fabulous. Really….for the price of some Midtown Atlanta condominiums, you can have the space of a single family home, new construction, and yet be just a few minutes drive from all the Midtown Atlanta has to offer.

Spacious floor plans can offer a Master on the Main, or unique lofts for that home office space, and 3 to 4 bedrooms. Lots are not huge, but offer just enough outdoor space for entertaining, family activities…and not to much lawn to mow! Granite counters and stainless appliance packages will make your kitchen the focal point of your home!

West Highlands is adjacent to the future Westside Reservior Park, part of the Atlanta Beltline Project. Once completed, this park will be even larger than Piedmont Park! Here is a link to the MasterPlan for the Westside Reservior Park!

Tired of that hour long commute to the burbs of ATL? Why not kick the car (well almost) and instead of sitting in traffic, you could already be home, enjoying a glass of wine on your deck or patio at West Highlands!

“If You Sleep ON It, You May Not Sleep IN It! – Midtown Atlanta Condos”

by

Midtown Atlanta CondosBuyer’s Beware! The dynamics of the real estate market have changed in many cities and neighborhoods….and Midtown Atlanta is no exception! While as a Buyer, you need to make an educated decision on the home or condo you buy, you need to be READY to make that decision.

“If You Sleep ON It, You May Not Sleep IN It!”

Being READY to make that decision involves several things.

  1. Having a mortgage loan pre-approval from a lender that know the market you are buying in. Purchasing a condominium has different aspects than a single family home. Take for instance, the existence of two or three Associations within the building! Not every lender or underwriting department is prepared for that.
  2. Knowing what you want in your home or condo, and amenities. If you want a building that has a club room, or 24 hour Concierge, then make sure your agent narrows their (and your search) to only those buildings that offer those features.
  3. Be ready to make that offer the moment you see the home you like! You are not alone in the real estate shopping world! The very condo you are standing in has probably been shown at least once, if not 3 or 4 or 5 times today.

Such, comes the saying, “If you sleep ON it, You may not sleep IN it.” Taking to long to make a decision, or make that offer, could either put you in a multiple bid situation where you will be competing with another buyer, or 2 or 3 with your offer.  Or, the Seller may have already accepted another offer.

As you step into the “real estate ring” make sure you have been working out and are ready.

Palmer House Properties | Atlanta’s Top 100 Fastest Growing Private Companies

by

When you are looking to buy or sell your Midtown Atlanta condominium, what difference does it make which COMPANY you select? After all, is it not all about the relationship you have with a particular real estate agent? Well, Yes…and no. Let me explain.

Palmer House Properties Atlanta’s |  Top 100 Fastest Growing Private Companies

The COMPANY that a real estate agent chooses to align themselves with makes a difference for the agent and how they can conduct their business. I’m not going to call out ANY real estate companies here. Some companies may have a better relationship with major relocation companies that move people around the country. An agent that wants to work in that market may choose a particular company. And of course, many agents feel that brand recognition is important for them to sell real estate.

About 2 years ago, I joined Palmer House Properties, headed up by CEO and Founder, Kevin Palmer. For me, it was about their business model and how it allowed me to be more financially productive as well as just easier to conduct my business, which in turn, is marketing to Buyers and Sellers of  Midtown Atlanta condos.  A “paperless system” allows me to be anywhere and access important documents as they relate to your real estate transaction, be you the Buyer or the Seller. I can be out of town, and have easy access to forward a Seller’s Disclosure Statement to a potential Buyer.

And the growth of a company is a clear indication of what it’s like to be affiliated with them. Since joining Palmer House Properties, I believe the company has grown from 300 agents to probably 1000 by now! That means other real estate professionals see the value I saw in associating Thomas Ramon Realty and MyMidtownMojo.com with the Palmer House Properties name.

When deciding to buy or sell a Midtown Atlanta condominium, you want to pick the agent that knows the market, is familiar with your building and floor plans and knows the neighborhood in general. But it’s also good to know that somebody’s “got their back” when it comes to some of the behind the scenes work that needs to happen.

It’s no wonder Palmer House Properties was named again to Atlanta’s Top 100 Fastest Growing Private Companies. And Thomas Ramon Realty and MyMidtownMojo.com are proud to be a part of this company.

Another Happy Georgia Tech Parent!!

Cornerstone Village

 

Another Happy Georgia Tech Parent!

I’ve helped numerous parents purchase Midtown Atlanta condos for their son or daughter to live in while attending school! It’s a great option over on-campus dorm life, and if purchased at the right time and price, can appreciate.

It was a pleasure to help Jim and Carla find a great Cornerstone Village condo for Kara to live in while she attends Georgia Tech. And getting this kind of “thank you” makes it all worth while!

 

Thom Abbott helped us find my daughter, Kara, a great place to live while attending Georgia Tech.

Normally, finding and purchasing a property is stressful and challenging regardless of the circumstance. That stress multiplies when the property is 700 miles away from home and it is for your oldest daughter living away from home for the first time. 

We turned to Thom Abbott as our real estate agent, but his assistance went beyond the typical agent role. He did all the things you would expect from an agent. He knew properties, trends, amenities, and transportation options in Midtown Atlanta. He provided market research and fair market prices and ultimately helped us identify the best property for our budget and needs. 

After the offer was accepted, he provided potential appraisers and home inspectors. Buying for a distance, he accompanied my daughter on the home inspections. In my daughter’s words, “Thom asked the home inspector a lot of questions because he knew my Dad would want answers.” he worked with us to smoothly complete the purchase. 

Once we closed, Thom continued to help. He helped us identify contractors to take care of minor upgrades on the property. We received multiple quotes so we know we got a fair price. Once the contract work started, he stopped in and inspected the work, found potential problems and had the contractor make changes improving the end result. 

He also worked with the condo association to complete our paperwork and helped lease one of our unused parking spaces. Thom Abbott’s assistance made purchasing a condo in Midtown Atlanta a very smooth and easy process. We are very grateful for his help.

Can I Buy A Midtown Atlanta Condo For Under $100,000?

by

Well, I’m here to tell you (unless there is something I don’t know about…)  unfortunately….NO!

Every day, I’m asked through various channels about the prices of real estate in Midtown Atlanta. “What’s the market like?” Are prices going up?” “I’m thinking I’ll wait another year to buy.”

Well, wait you may, but pay more you will. Can I Buy A Midtown Atlanta Condo for Under $100,000?

I just did a search on the MLS, and found 1, 2, 3. That’s it. THREE condos for sale under $100,000. Have the prices gone up?

Spring Selling Season Is Here….And So Are the Cocktails!

by

Midtown Atlanta Spring Selling SeasonYeah, we are really stretching the topic on this one. Sort of. Actually they do have something in common, the Spring Selling Season Is Here…and So Are the Cocktails! 

First off, it’s almost April, and the Spring home selling season is upon us! Now, it’s not like the market has been in ANY kind of winter hibernation…quite the opposite has been happening in Midtown Atlanta! Sales have been rocking and rolling since before the holidays, and don’t show any signs of letting grass grow under their feet this Spring.

The Spring Selling Season Is Here … And Buyer’s Best Be Prepared!!

So how DOES a Buyer Be Prepared? Well if you are here at MyMidtownMojo, we hope you’ve made the decision on the real estate agent you are going to use to help y0u find your Midtown Atlanta condo! Now, our next step is to get you pre-approved with one of your Lender Partners! Why? The market is on a fast track with limited inventory! You need to be ready to pounce when we find you the right condo, and that pounce includes a pre-approval from a lender. (NOT a pre-qualification and I’ll explain the difference in a moment) When you submit that offer to the Seller, we want them to know you have done the leg work and the steps needed to have a pre-approval. It will make your offer look better knowing you have your financing in place.

In a pre-approval, you’ve submitted documents like your tax returns, bank statements, W-2”s and such so the lender can have all this information verified. Here’s a perfect example. I’m working with a Buyer right now that just had a $93,000 deposit made into her checking account.  Can you say BIG RED FLAG to an Underwriter for her loan approval? YOU BET!  Well, in the pre-approval process, she can submit the documentation necessary NOW as to what that deposit is for. (It happens to be the proceeds of her half of the sale of  a home with her husband.) Well, she will need to provide documentation as to where it came from.

And So Are the Cocktails!

What do cocktails have to do with the Spring Selling Season? Well, for one…it’s Spring! You’ll soon be hitting the pool or club room at your condo building, or opening up those balcony doors and enjoying the sunshine. And why not with a great new Spring Cocktail you’ve learned about here and can share with your friends!

Plus, we’ll want to celebrate when YOU buy YOUR Midtown Atlanta Condo!

Here’s some great Cocktail Recipes from Southern Living Magazine! Let’s sample a few of these!
