While a resale price can look attractive, you need to consider all of the potential “hidden” costs associated with a resale, especially if it is a short sale or a foreclosure. It may seem like a bargain, but  you may spend a fortune on unexpected expenses after the purchase.
Resale homes often have things not working or needing repair. The warranties may have run out, or the builder is no longer in business to stand behind his warranty. A quality built home, like the ones Peachtree Residential Properties is renown for building, do not have such problems. Plus, Peachtree Residential has a 1-year limited warranty and a 10-year structural warranty.  Second, when you need someone to make a repair, there is a risk you will select someone not really qualified to do the job. If you have to bring someone else in to undo and correct what the first person did, your costs escalate. With a Peachtree Residential home you don’t have that risk. Twenty-three years in the home-construction business  and over 4,000 satisfied home buyers attest to that.  Third, a resale home often is not built with the most recent energy-efficient technology, techniques and materials. Consequently, higher heating and cooling bills become another “hidden” cost. Whether it be weather-resistive house wrap, energy-efficient window wrap and flashing, thermal pane Low-E glass windows or extra insulation, Peachtree Residential uses the latest technology and materials in the construction of its quality luxury homes.  Finally, with a resale you do not get to personalize, or as we say – “Peachtree Tailor” – your new home. It can be very exciting, designing your new home and selecting your colors, elevation, cabinets, plumbing, lighting fixtures, and carpeting.

Before another needle falls off the live Christmas tree, remove those ornaments and take the tree to one of many locations throughout Forsyth County for a recycling and mulching event. Free tree seedlings and vegetable seeds will be available January 8th (while supplies last) at several drop off locations.  
Residents of Forsyth County have made it a tradition to end the holiday season by recycling their Christmas trees during the “Bring One for the Chipper” annual event, sponsored by Keep Forsyth County Beautiful. A wood chipper then processes the recycled trees into mulch. “The number of Christmas trees recycled in Forsyth County grows every year, which is encouraging,” said Tammy Wright, the county’s environmental program manager. “Recycling the trees is good for the environment and provides mulch to cover walking trails as well as help the ground around plants retain moisture.”  Forsyth County residents have participated in Bring One for the Chipper since 1994 and have recycled more than 67,000 trees during that time.

ATLANTA – Peachtree Residential Properties is pleased to announce that its Brevard model home at St. Michaels Bay is now for sale as the company prepares to open another beautiful model within the community. Located on a beautifully wooded, lakefront homesite with lake views from both the side and the rear, the home is exceptionally priced at $998,900 and includes a private boat slip. The Forsyth County new home is located adjacent to Lake Lanier and is set among a pristine hardwood forest with approximately 7,000 linear feet of shoreline protected by the U.S. Army Corp of Engineers.

“The Brevard model made its premier at St. Michaels Bay in 2006 and was recognized by the Greater Atlanta Home Builders Association in November, when it won a Silver Award for Best Building Design,” said Kathleen Murphy, Director of Marketing. “The model home reflects the quality craftsmanship and attention to detail for which Peachtree Residential is known.”
