Pre purchase in Conley Ga on this Rainy Tuesday morning.

🏡 Fun Fact About Conley, Georgia:

Before it was called Conley, the community was originally known as Moccasin Gap. In 1867, the area was renamed after the Conley family, who owned much of the local land. What began as a farming community eventually grew into one of metro Atlanta’s major transportation and logistics hubs because of its proximity to rail lines, interstates, and the airport.

Another interesting fact: Conley sits less than 8 miles southeast of downtown Atlanta, making it one of the closest unincorporated communities to the city while still maintaining its own distinct identity.

Pre Purchase Inspection in Lake Arrowhead today. This is why I always keep a few fishing poles in the car😎

The 540-acre spring-fed lake sits in the foothills of the Blue Ridge Mountains and is often described as one of the cleanest lakes in the state.

Happy Monday!! Pre Purchase Inspection in Marietta Ga this afternoon.

🏡 Marietta’s historic downtown square is one of the oldest continuously active town squares in Georgia. The city was established in the 1830s—before Atlanta became the major city it is today—and many of the homes surrounding the square date back to the late 1800s and early 1900s. This gives Marietta one of the largest collections of historic residential neighborhoods in the metro Atlanta area.

It’s that time of year again! Poorly insulated ductwork in a humid crawlspace can allow warm, moist air to condense on the cold metal duct surfaces, especially during cooling operation. This condition can lead to several concerns, including:

* Moisture damage to insulation, framing, and subfloor materials
* Elevated humidity levels within the crawlspace
* Mold and microbial growth on duct insulation and surrounding materials
* Reduced HVAC efficiency and energy loss
* Deterioration or sagging of duct insulation
* Rust/corrosion on metal duct components
* Potential air quality concerns due to mold spores and moisture-related contaminants
* Water dripping onto the crawlspace floor, potentially contributing to standing moisture conditions

Pre Purchase Inspection in Conyers Ga this morning.

A fun random fact about Conyers: it’s the only city in Rockdale County — meaning the entire county has just one incorporated city! That’s pretty rare in Georgia, where most counties have several towns and cities.

For homebuyers, a crawlspace inspection can reveal expensive hidden defects that may not be visible during a standard walk-through. Even newer homes can have drainage, moisture, or installation issues beneath the structure. With this particular Home being built in the 1970s, it is VERY important that the buyer knows these defects are present and need to be addressed before purchasing.
