Notes:	99 Dartmouth is a charming 1929 original home located on one of the best/sought-after streets with A+ walkability.

It's hard to find a four bedroom with flex space in the Historic Section of Avondale Estates but this one has the best opportunity in the best location! You'll love the large open living room with wood-burning fireplace and a spacious dining room with high ceilings and crown molding. The beautiful hardwoods run throughout the home (upstairs under carpet as well) and the custom kitchen with custom cabinets (gutted/renovated 9 years ago) will amaze you. Off the kitchen is a cute mudroom with laundry tucked away. Also, on the main level you will find a bedroom with renovated bath on the main, along with a den that opens to the front porch. The flexible upstairs (eye lash) dormers were opened to make three comfortable bedrooms and a full bath with walk-in shower. Each bedroom offers easy access to additional storage spaces. You will never lack for storage upstairs! The well cared for home also boasts, newly blown in insulation, newer systems (9 years old) and 25-30 year, architectural shingled roof (10 years old). The original garage is now used for a work shop and outdoor stored items. Entertaining is made easy from the gracious front porch to the back yard. The custom built patio compliments the versatile yard space along with a truly dry, full (walk-in) basement. The yard has been professional designed and maintained so the hard work has been done. The back yard is level and very attractive with a brick walk way and patio, and it is fully fenced. Bring your ideas, dreams, family and friends and find a home to treasure here! Enjoy the short walk (one block) to the park and walk or picnic soon. Next to the park is Avondale Swim & Tennis Club (membership optional) but the front two courts are City courts so bring a racket and play some pickle ball or tennis. Just a few blocks over on Berkeley Road is Lake Avondale (seen in photos) with a wonderful walking path. Golf carts welcome in our small City! Also, enjoy the many shops and acclaimed restaurants in the City. We have your culinary delights covered here. Our beautiful small City is located 15-20 minutes from everything (CDC, Emory, the airport and downtown Atlanta) with Marta access to the airport and downtown. Wonderful neighborhood - Wonderful Neighbors!

HUD Foreclosures

HUD foreclosures and VA Foreclosures are some of the best homes to buy when price is part of the equation. As with most Americans, price is always a concern. If not buying the same house for less, why not buy more house for the same dollar invested? When looking for a good deal it is hard to do better than the VA or HUD foreclosures market. The simple truth is that there are just more VA and HUD homes on the market, as they represent such a large number of mortgages that are generated each year. This translates into more foreclosures just by the magnitude of difference between all others comparing to the two largest.

The two largest also being government owned and operated means that they have less time to wait to make money back on the home. The FHA is especially known for selling HUD homes for less than the average sales price in a given area. FHA foreclosures represent a fraction of HUD but they are still a significant number of homes and both should be considered.

VA (Veterans Administration) and HUD (Housing and Urban Development) have different and unique opportunities for the buyer. Both are often forgiven for the local taxes normally associated with the purchase of a home (this is on a county by county basis). Be sure to ask the local title company or escrow company to look into it for you before closing as this is often missed due to their are not used to dealing with the 2 to 3 percent of the market that VA and HUD foreclosures represent.

Foreclosure Listings Increasing

As the market settled after the mortgage meltdown foreclosure listings also settled and fewer homes were on the market with a placard reading “Bank Foreclosure” in big red lettering. This was a good thing for the entire real estate market. Having an abundance of foreclosures brings the entire market down and it makes it harder for home owners, who would like to move, to get the appropriate price for their home as a similar home down the same street was sold for substantially less and the appraiser is using the foreclosure as a comparable sale.

This is just one of the problems when there are too many foreclosure listings in any area. Another issue is the television set that sits in everyone’s living room harping about the price of homes based on the number of foreclosures and this constant barrage of negative information makes most people sit on the sidelines waiting for the market to either implode completely or to correct itself. Meanwhile while they wait, others are buying foreclosure listings and making great investments.

Whatever the reason, a market can only handle so many foreclosure listings at any given time. The more foreclosures, the lower the market gets and this is a lesson the banks that were foreclosing and selling off realized too late. The market and their investments would have been better off if there had not been a rush to divest themselves of the toxic assets made more toxic by their own actions.
