Cherokee County 🤘🏼

All six CCSD high schools made the U.S. News and World Report’s “Best High Schools” list for 2021, which was released by the publication this week. Creekview HS led the county in the rankings at number 2,342 out of 24,000 high schools in the country; five of CCSD’s high schools – Creekview, Etowah, River Ridge, Sequoyah and Woodstock – also ranked in the Top 100 in Georgia of the more than 400 high schools in the state and fell within the top 15% nationwide.

The magazine’s prestigious list is based on factors including academic performance, college readiness, graduation rates and success of disadvantaged students. The U.S. News rankings include data on nearly 24,000 public high schools in 50 states and the District of Columbia. In addition to traditional high schools, the rankings encompass charter; magnet; and science, technology, engineering and math-focused schools.

“It’s great to see national recognition for what we already know to be true here at home—that our teachers, students and support teams are working hard and achieving at impressive levels,” Superintendent of Schools Dr. Brian V. Hightower said. “We also greatly appreciate the support of our students’ families and our community partners, which makes accomplishments like this possible.”

Wow! More ATL jobs = more housing demand = more equity for homeowners.

“Outside the Atlanta city limits, Cobb County recorded the sharpest increase in the median price of a home, jumping 21.8% over the past year. Meanwhile, its neighbor to the north, Cherokee County, saw the second-highest boost at 16.8%.”

Cobb and Cherokee Counties are leading the metro Atlanta area in housing demand. While this is great news for your equity, it continues to make the market extremely competitive (sometimes multiple offers with tens of thousands of dollars over asking price) for buyers.

Having an agent who understands how to make your offer look as appealing as possible matters now more than ever! 🏡

“The S&P CoreLogic Case-Shiller 20-city price index posted a 10.1% year-over-year gain. It was the first time that home prices saw a double digit increase since January 2014.”

What does this mean? It means the same house you could buy today, will cost you MORE tomorrow with equity rising by the day.

Buyers: You need to capitalize on these extremely low mortgage rates, before you are priced out of your ideal price range.

Sellers: Buyers are panicked. There isn’t nearly enough inventory on the market for the mass of hopeful Buyers searching. Selling now means multiple offers and holding the power to control the deal!

An experienced agent can make or break this situation for you. Call me with questions!

‘The rise in mortgage rates has been putting a dent in affordability for many buyers, setting the stage for a challenging next few months.’
