    Default Areas to look around to buy a house...

    In the coming months since my lease is expiring, I will be looking to buy a house. However, Im not sure of the following:


    1. Where to look (im wanting to stay around Atlanta)

    2. Price range ( I currently pay around 1200 a month for rent before any utilities so probably around that)

    Any ideas? Im possibly looking towards Alpharetta...Gwinnett (long shot) ...or further up North. Commutting under an hour to Buckhead is a big plus.

    I live inside the perimeter in Decatur and the houses are pretty convenient and right now are going at a good rate. The mortgage for my house is around $850 a month. I live ten miles from the Varsity on city streets, just for an idea.

    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..

    There are soooo many deals out there right now! My husband and I are under contract with a house in Bethlehem. We ran across a deal that we just couldn't let go. I have 2 realtors that are AWESOME to work with, and I would be more than happy to give you their information if you are interested.

    I love the area he lives in. You should see his backyard.






    Seriously, come over for a bonfire and we will show you deep in the woods. We already have a shallow grave and everything!

    I use correct punctuation and grammar most of the time, but I'm tired as fuck now.

    And as we know, everyone is making mistakes in this thread. *No names*
