an SEH 2100 sqft resale is asking $470k

another SEH 2300 sqft short sale just sold for $440k

both the resale and the short sale already have landscaping done. you’ll probably need to spend another $50k for a new home that size, which means essentially you’ll pay the same price in the end but end up getting very different environment and schools.

good job on saying no![/quote]

Beachtree is SEH, Weatherwood is OCR but that was my point earlier. There are plenty of communities in the area that offer equal or better value and better schools.

SEH under 450:

Be careful with these neighborhoods re: power lines. They are two of the closest neighborhoods to the power lines/ power towers. The first two are right next to the schools.
