Pam Heisler and Jan Hair are this week’s guests on Atlanta Real Estate Forum Radio. Pam gives us the scoop on the intown Atlanta market, while Jan offers advice to first time buyers.
Pam Heisler is a senior marketing consultant with Harry Norman Realtors. Pam has been with Harry Norman for 12 years, and has earned the senior marketing designation due to her tremendous success with the company.
Most of Pam’s properties are in northeast Dekalb County and intown Atlanta. She loves working in this area because it’s where she has lived since graduating college, so selling real estate for the area is second nature. Pam is seeing many young professionals and empty nesters flocking towards intown. Intown has become popular with these crowds because it is highly walkable and offers plenty of entertainment options. While tremendous values can still be found in this area, she says that the market is stabilizing and houses in high demand areas are selling within a couple of days. This month the office has seen the highest number of pending sales in its history.

Today’s Deal of the Day is from The Providence Group. They are offering a $7,500 incentive on options for pre-sale and new construction properties at Jamestown. Jamestown is a wonderful gated community in Alpharetta with amazing amenities and gorgeous single family homes and townhomes. However, interested buyers need to hurry because this offer is only good on contracts signed by the end of the month.
To take advantage of this incentive or for more information, visit The Providence Group website.

Our next guest is Jan Hair who is a real estate consultant with Keller Williams. Jan has been in the business for 16 years and works with the Signature Properties office in West Cobb.
Jan is working with an increasing number of first time buyers who are taking advantage of current market conditions, which have created a surplus of short sale and foreclosure properties at low prices. Jan loves working with this type of buyer because they graciously accept any advice she gives them. One of her biggest tips for first time buyers is that they should meet with a lender prior to beginning the house hunt, so that they are aware of what their credit score is and what amount they are actually qualified for.
For more tips on the first time buying process, listen to the full podcast. And for even more information, visit Jan Hair’s website. ______________________________________________________________________________________
