We plan on relocating to the Atlanta area and would like to stay in Cobb County, I found a home in Powder

Springs, and was curious as to the input about the area, Varner Elementary and Tapp Middle. I have family in Marietta, they have suggested we look there because of the school's. allthough the prices elsewhere are more in our range. Any help or advice would be very helpful, we are currently in Southern Maryland, and will make a trip in the next 3-4 weeks to find a home hopefully in one weekend, if I can research enough online. thanks in advance :-)

Dana,

Powder Springs is a great community to live in. I lived there myself for about 4 years and it has real small town charm and easy access to Barrett Pkwy. & the Town Center mall area.

There are some great communities to consider in Powder Springs. I can assist you with your online search by setting up a customized web page that will send you homes based on your search criteria no matter how detailed it is. In addition you can organize your search right on the web page! This is an essential tool for looking for homes online.

You can e-mail or call me with your home search specifications and I can set up your web page within 24 Hours! If you would like to schedule a home tour for the weekend you plan to visit I will have everything organized for you before you get here so you can maximize your time!

I'm a well organized & experienced buyer's agent that has an excellent track record of satisfied clients. In addition my wife is a real estate attorney here in Georgia so you know you will be in good hands from home search to close.

Dana,

Powder Springs is Atlanta's best kept secret! Very quaint. The area is still growing and has a lot to offer and who better to recommend a place for you to live then family that lives close by.

As far as schools visithttp:// www.greatschools.net . You can get all the data needed for each school of interest.

You could also check out Kennesaw and Acworth as an alternative if you want to stay in Cobb.

If I can help you in any other way, please let me know,

Also check out Powder Springs Website athttp:// www.cityofpowdersprings.com
