Areas to look around to buy a house...

Based on $1,200 a month at 30 years and about 5.5%, you're looking at the $200,000- $220,000 range or so. Which you might have a tough time with in Alpharetta. You could certainly find one, but the neighborhood itself might be kind of crummy and old.

I live in Lawrenceville, 4 bedroom, 2 bath. REALLY quiet neighborhood. Shit, I leave my windows open sometimes at night, NEVER gotten anything stolen. We bought the house as a foreclosure in 2005 or 2006, not sure lol.

With Farmers insurance its $948 a month on 30yrs with a 5.25% interest.



House > Townhome. You're still a few feet next to your neighbhor..

Where at? Every where I've driven around in Alpharetta I haven't seen townhomes that low.
