Affordable Homes Available from Smith Douglas Homes
Vice President of Sales for Smith Douglas Homes Jamie Chastain joins the Atlanta Real Estate Forum Radio podcast to discuss the builder’s new metro Atlanta communities. Chastain joins hosts Carol Morgan and Todd Schnick for the All About Real Estate segment.
A Georgia native, Chastain started in the industry 24 years ago in general real estate and, in the early 2000s, made the switch to new home sales. Chastain remarks that she feels lucky to have the opportunity to grow her career into a leadership position at Smith Douglas Homes in Atlanta.
With a mission to provide a wide range of affordable housing, Smith Douglas Homes has been a prominent metro Atlanta builder for over 40 years.
Chastain said, “Quality and affordability are a high focus, and it has been a little challenging this year to keep that vision alive.”
When Founder Tom Bradbury launched the company, the Atlanta market mainly consisted of private home builders, now the market is comprised mainly of large public home builders. Today, Smith Douglas Homes continues to build affordable homes for first-time buyers in a highly sought-after market. Whether moving into a first home or downsizing to a smaller product, the builder offers a variety of products, perfect for every type of homebuyer.
Currently, Smith Douglas Homes is constructing in 32 active communities stretching across Georgia.
Nestled between the cities of Woodstock and Roswell, the townhome community of Concord has been well received. With access to a wide array of vicinities, this community offers residents a constant stream of events, activities and top-rated restaurants and businesses for a vibrant way of life.
Crestwood, located near the popular downtown area of Rome, enjoys access to local universities, a colorful roster of local businesses as well as top local medical facilities. The community features two-story and ranch-style homes, ranging from 1,202 to 2,095 square feet of living space.
“We are seeing so much growth in all of these communities that have good vicinity to Atlanta…that are further away [but still have great accessibility.]”
Currently sold out of its first phase, Hastings Manor in Hampton provides a great environment for residents that speaks to a wide range of interests. The quaint community showcases traditional two-story homes with easy access to nearby green spaces, I-75 and Hartsfield Jackson International Airport.
“If there’s anything COVID and this market have taught us, it’s that people are more in tune with how they want their home to live,” said Chastain. “It’s really challenged us as builders to ensure that we’re thinking strategically through our consumers’ eyes.”
