Jim Chapman Communities is excited to announce that Kelly Dempsey, vice president of sales and marketing, has been named the 2013 president of the Atlanta 50+ Housing Council of the Greater Atlanta Home Builders Association.

“I am honored to serve as president,” stated Dempsey. “I have the privilege to follow Jim Chapman, the president of our company, in the position. I look forward to helping develop interesting and educational programs for our members.”

The Atlanta 50+ Housing Council is one of the nation’s largest 50+ councils. The council represents housing professionals that are dedicated to the fastest growing population of the 21st century, the active adult.

As an active adult himself and a crucial member of Jim Chapman Communities, Dempsey understands the needs and wants of active adults.

“Our ranch level homes offer beautiful and functional plans,” explained Dempsey. “Each home is maintenance free and complies with Easy Living Home building specifications. Features include wider doorways, ample maneuvering space in baths and showers and zero-step entries from garages into homes.”

Communities include Brookhaven at Sugarloaf in Duluth, Brookhaven of East Cobb in Kennesaw and Brookhaven at Lanier Ridge in Cumming.

Priced from the $230,000s, communities offer all-brick and stone construction, inviting front porches, two and three bedroom floor plans and state-of-the-art amenities. These include heated pools, outdoor fireplaces and clubhouses with exercise rooms and kitchens.

Additionally, each community is minutes from nearby shops, restaurants and area recreation.
