    Not as far fetched as you would think. This house sold for $310k fast AF across the street from me last summer, now the one next door is up for sale as well. Me looking at these and what they sold for makes me think I could get $425k+. I have double the house, double the garage, full finished...

    I cant find it, but as mentioned I just thought it was odd that Florida was on that list.

    I just read on the news app this morning. Florida was one of the top 5 states that people are leaving. Illinois was also on the list, but I found it funny and I was very surprised that Florida was on it. I'll try to find the article

    Fucking house is already pending. Its being sold as is and they have an inspector out there right now. I'm assuming the bank requires the inspection. My house has got to be worth $100k more than that house.

    This house on my block literally just went on the market today. In the last 3hrs 2 different families have looked at it. The people there must rent because they haven’t been there since it sold last in 2019. They are fucking scumbags anyway. Never cut the grass, takes 4-5 days to bring garbage...

    I guess semi related to this thread. My sons GF closed a deal on a $750k home while she was with us in Turks. The first day in Turks at dinner, she was telling us about this lady (buyer) as she texted her while we were eating. How she was very demanding and would call/text at all hours of the...

    Fulton District? If so, fuck yeah you should do well. Just be careful as people rent out airbnb in that area to throw big ass parties.
