About Me
My office is located in the Hickory Flat Village Shopping Center in Canton, on the corner of E. Cherokee & Hwy 140, about thirty miles from Atlanta. My general service areas are Canton, Hickory Flat, Holly Springs, Ball Ground, Woodstock, Alpharetta, Roswell, Marietta, Acworth, Kennesaw, and other surrounding areas. I am licensed to sell homes anywhere in the state of Georgia. I generally work in the counties of Cherokee, Cobb, Bartow, Paulding, Fulton, Forsyth, Gwinnett, but if outside my service area I can refer you to another reputable ReMax Realtor. If you are looking for a home for sale in any of these areas contact me for free Buyer's Representation. If you are selling a home in any of these areas contact me to see if I currently am working with any HomeBuyer's that are looking for a home such as yours.

That 's a great question but unfortunately there is no definite answer. That is totally a PERSONAL preference. I live in Kennesaw and I LOVE it ! I am within walking distance of Downtown Kennesaw, and the new Swift-Cantrell Park (which is an awesome park!). But Woodstock is nice also, and is closer to Fulton County & Alpharetta area, sometimes that is a factor that comes into play when people are deciding. Just depends on where you will be working and such. They are both great places to live and both very convenient to nearby interstates. My recommendation would be to take some time to investigate each thoroughly by physically driving around and touring and also doing some online investigation also. If you need any assistance feel free to call or drop me an email. My website will have all my contact info on it. ~Lorrie - Fri Apr 25 2008, 11:29

I would talk to their agent and find out if he/she prepared them for the many many many things that the home inspector will list on the report so that they are not shocked when they see so many items on the report. If they did that in the first place and the agent has set it up already for them to realize that everything on the list is not something that nessecarily needs to be requested then that makes it alot easier if that is done upfront. If it isn't then sometimes they expect it all to be done. Sometimes their agent may even lead them to believe that they can get all of it negotiated to be done (but let's hope they were a little more realistic). Even if their agent hasn't done this upfront, perhaps you can reason with the agent and then in turn they can bring the buyers more down to earth. I cannot imagine that all 16 things are something major the the seller should fix, that is a little excessive. I hope everything works out for your deal and that everyone realizes that some things are not a big deal and can be easily fixed at a little to no cost sometimes. (for example I've seen some buyers request the wiring to be properly insulated from the ac unit to the home, and I can do something as easy as that with pipe insulation bought for under $5 at the home store) - Wed Apr 16 2008, 17:23

Between Woodstock Rd & Kellogg Creek on Hwy 92? - Sun Apr 13 2008, 17:07

can i look up homes for sale by the school district there in?

Lorrie Thomas answered:
I just set up a customized "Client Gateway Webpage" for a new client the other day. It is updated daily and includes all the homes that meet her specific criteria, such as specific School District, number of bedrooms and baths, 1 Level Ranch homes. This is a free service that I offer to my clients, and I'd be happy to set one up for you. To see an example just click the easy button on my website. - Sun Dec 30 2007, 08:48
