Peachtree Park :: 3133 Peachtree Drive :: SOLD!

Monday, May 9th, 2011

This gorgeous Peachtree Park charmer is SOLD! 

Congrats to our sellers Kristen and Joffre as they make their new home in Florida!  And, also a big thank you to Kristen who left this amazing feedback about their experience with “The Peters Company” on Kudzu.com:

“Andy and Lesley Peters represented us in the sale of our Buckhead home during a tough real estate market. To complicate matters, we moved to Florida shortly after putting the house on the market, so we needed agents who could not only sell our home, but help us monitor the condition of the house, too.

We couldn’t have chosen more wisely. Andy and Lesley were the most prepared agents we interviewed, armed with unique and comprehenisve research and advice. Their work in selecting comps was oustanding and thorough–not just plucked seemingly at random from MLS!

The great service continued after we signed on. They produced a wonderful brochure for the house, filled with gorgeous pictures taken by a professional photographer. They kept us posted on showings via text message, and their online feedback system meant that we saw real-time feedback from showings at our convenience. Additionally, their DocuSign service enabled us to easily review and sign documents, no matter whether we were in Atlanta, Florida, or off on vacation.

Andy and Lesley’s care for our house–from meeting with and supervising workers, to tireless assistance with alarm issues, and creative problem solving with regard to attracting new buyers and agents make them the strongest real estate agent team in Atlanta. But it’s their integrity, honesty, intelligence, and overall good humor that make them simply the best people you’d ever want to do business with. We thank them from the bottom of our hearts!”

It is always our #1 goal to over-service and over-deliver!  Thanks for this amazing review!

        Park Place Master

About twice a year, Andy and I will develop a HOUSE CRUSH! Yes, you heard me correctly – “house crush!” I know it may sound a little odd but we have the great pleasure of seeing some of the most beautiful homes and condos in Atlanta. It can be a dangerous encounter as we often think of moving. Our most recent house crush has been on one of our very own listings – this gorgeous, fully-furnished foreclosure condo in Park Place Buckhead!  The Problem: We’ve already SOLD it! In all seriousness, I’m not sure a family of 5 (including the dog) would be best suited for a 2 bedroom/2 bathroom condo but we can always dream, right?

Congratulations to the new buyers who got a fantastic deal and will have the most amazing view from the 27th floor every night! Can you tell I still have the CRUSH?

We see a lot of Atlanta foreclosures and many are in rotten shape!  This one was a diamond in the rough – completely renovated and fully furnished!  In addition, it was located in one of the most well-known luxury highrises – Park Place on Peachtree. Park Place, nestled amongst church row (Second Ponce de Leon Baptist Church, Christ the King, and St. Phillips Cathedral) and across the street from an Atlanta restaurant favorite (La Grotta) is located in the Heart of Buckhead.  It’s also in walking distance to the new Steets of Buckhead!  No doubt that these buyers got a fantastic location, beautiful condo, and exceptional deal!  CONGRATS!!!

If we can help you find or sell a luxury Buckhead condo, give us a call!

Brookhaven: Lost it’s Luster or Primed for Pickup?

Thursday, March 19th, 2009

We are blessed to intimately know many diverse areas of Atlanta, including inside the perimeter from Downtown north and the outer arc of DeKalb, North Fulton, and Gwinnett Counties. There is perhaps no market we know better than the Buckhead/Brookhaven market. Lesley and I have been fortunate to help buyers and sellers here for years. We have fortunately seen the rise, and unfortunately we have seen the fall. Isn’t that the case everywhere, and won’t it always be the case? The answer is certainly yes, and while the popularity of intown Atlanta’s Brookhaven sustained and sheltered property values for an extended amount of time, it has, like all the other areas, given way to the market. Having shown property in Brookhaven quite a bit recently, there are areas which were historically high flyers that are now prime for the picking for the first time homebuyer again. Ashford Park, the babydoll on the eastside of Brookhaven, has some unbelievable deals right now. As of today, there are 100 active listings in Ashford Park, and I don’t think I’m going out on a limb here by saying that you can get what you want for the price you want. New construction infill became “the way” of the neighborhood several years ago, and now that the market has softened there are some amazing new homes available at a mere fraction of their original list prices. Drew Valley, which is the across the street neighbor to Ashford Park, has even better values. For years Brookhaven home values grew in double digits to the point that prices really grew out of the first time homebuyer’s wheelhouse price range. With values being down 10% or more over last year, the first time homebuyer is coming back to the area! Personally, I think that’s a great thing. The first time homebuyer brings a lot of energy into the community. They renovate houses. They spend money. They make the area better. What goes up must come down, and that has been the case with the real estate market time and time again, but buying real estate in desirable areas like Brookhaven never goes out of style.

First time homebuyers, you already know this, but I would be remiss if I didn’t mention it time and time again. The goverment is giving away $8,000 in tax credit through December 1st of this year. There are special stipulations so contact us for details. In addition, these are the lowest interst rates on record in over 30 years, and a glut of inventory gives you the pick of the litter. Smart buying decisions right now will translate into money in your pocket in the future. For more information on the Buckhead/Brookhaven area or if we can help you in any of the other areas of Atlanta, please contact us via email at andy@thepeterscompany.com or via the “contact us” page on our website. We would love to help you maximize your opportunity in this market.
