Atlanta Parade of Homes

More than 100 new homes throughout the Atlanta region will be part of the 2008 Spring Parade of Homes during the weekends of April 19 & 20 and 26 & 27 . This year’s Parade will be unlike any other, combining the forces of four local Home Builders Associations. During the Parade, guests can tour a variety of home styles and types built by a variety of builders.

Smyrna Vinings new home neighborhoods included in the 2008 Atlanta Parade of Homes includes Hawthorne Gate, Whitehall and Whitestone.

“There has never been a better time to buy a new home than now.” said David Ellis, executive vice president of the Greater Atlanta Home Builders Association. “As a steady demand for new homes continues, we are seeing the current inventory supply shrinking. Lower housing prices and special incentives will soon be a thing of the past as builders begin to sell their current inventory. The Spring Parade of Homes offers new home shoppers and those who are considering buying a new home the opportunity to visit a variety of communities, and to speak with real estate agents and buyers.”

The 2008 Parade of Homes is free and open to the public. Specifics on builders and communities participating are available on www.paradeofhomesatlanta.com.

“This event comes at a perfect time,” continues Ellis. “Today’s real estate market is truly a buyers’ market. For many, that makes owning a dream home an even more affordable option than previously thought. Interest rates remain low, increasing how much home can be bought for the same monthly payment than with higher interest rates. A strong job market and great incentives are also contributing factors, making now the best time to buy a new home and get a great deal.”
