Cartersville new homes near shopping, schools
As Atlanta sprawl continues north on I-75, new homes in Bartow County are popping up everywhere in all price ranges. But buyers should visit the Village at Waterside and Victoria Village. Both are extremely unique in their own ways.
Victoria Village is priced from the $230,000s is in walking distance to West End Commons Shopping Center, on the West side of Cartersville. Victoria Village is connected to this community by a small bridge — imagine walking to your favorite resturants like Fox’s Pizza Den and Harth and Harvest. Golds Gym is there too. These homes look like seaside villas from the Florida Panhandle and Charleston.
The Village at Waterside, with homes from the $600,000s, is simply breathtaking! These custom craftsman homes seem to flow into the natural mountain surroundings. The community borders Army Corps of Engineers property on Lake Allatoona, and the lake can be seen from new lots on Phase 3 of the community.

REMAX Broker provides Auction Services to sell properties
It’s as old as dirt and Auctions are here to stay. Real Estate Auctions have been around for centuries and today they are being used to bring value to our market. Recently, driving down a busy corridor I saw an arrow sign promoting $100,000 discounts on new homes. Then making my way to the office an agent told me of a builder who planned to give his houses back to the bank. That afternoon I reviewed my “Short Sale” training.
