Welcome!

I am an Atlanta native and made the decision in 2007 to leave my job as an architect/urban planner to get my real estate license. This was a difficult decision but has been great since my very first day in my new career and I am really enjoying it! It is so rewarding helping people find that perfect home, and it allows me to continue to satiate my love of good architecture and great neighborhoods!

I attended Georgia Tech (GO JACKETS!!!!) which is where I met my husband. For almost a decade we lived in one of Atlanta's fabulous in-town neighborhoods in a great 1920's Craftsman bungalow with our two dogs and two cats. Following the birth of our first child, we bought a foreclosure in the west Buckhead area and fully renovated it using an FHA 203k loan, which was a fun and sometimes daunting process. And just prior to the birth of our second child, we purchased and renovated a home in downtown Historic Roswell, completing our personal tour of some of Atlanta's best neighborhoods to live in!

I decided to create this blog in order to share useful information and resources about the real estate market and home buying process, as well as hopefully bring some humor and levity to what is often a complex and intimidating process. Enjoy!!!

Half bath or full bath?

If you are thinking of renovating or adding on, but don't have a ton of space, consider this:  Data shows that an extra half-bath can boost a home's price as much or more as another full bath.  A half bath can be added in as little space a 2' x 4', while a full bath needs quite a bit more room, so these findings can be significant!
The median price for single-family homes with one bathroom was $85 a square foot, according to a survey of listings on realtor.com in late July. With an extra full bathroom, the price climbed 15%, to $107 a square foot, while an extra half-bathroom added 10%, or $93 a square foot.
