I just put down 5% yesterday to secure my home purchase. I will be moving into my new home in June 30, 2011. The subdivision is called St Marlo Country Club in Duluth/Johns Creek, GA. I wasn't considering this subdivision before as home prices were between $650,000 - $5 million. Yesterday, I purchased a home on this street for $459,500. Most of the homes on this particular street were purchased for $700s - $800s in 2007. The ethnic makeup of the area is very much like Irvine back in late 80s and early 90s.
It is funny because for long time i had deep regrets that I didn't buy that 1534 sq ft Casalon townhome in QH back in 2003 for the exact same price. The homes on this street have lot sizes of .35 - 1 acre. Home sizes are between 3800 sq ft - 5000 sq ft and the taxes are .8% with no mello roos. If you like the good schools, new homes, and don't want to pay the WTF prices and mello roos that Irvine has to offer. I highly recommend Johns Creek, GA http://www.johnscreekga.gov/about/demographics.asp as an alternative option for you bold risk takers.
St Marlo Schools. according tohttp://www.schooldigger.com/
Johns Creek Elementary ranks 7th of 1097 Georgia public elementary schools.
Riverwatch Middle School ranks 3rd of 467 Georgia public middle schools.
Lambert High School opened last year but predicted to be as good or better than Northview High.
Northview High School ranks 13th of 388 Georgia public high schools.
I am just curious to know where the rest of our old IHB timers decided to buy.
