Alpharetta Homes For Sale - Is It Expensive?

Posted Nov 14, 2007 @ 1:28 pm, Viewed by 401 Visitors, Read 401 Times.

I received a phone call yesterday and the gentleman asked me this. I have heard this and a few other myths that I thought I should try to dispell about Alpharetta. So here they are:

Myth Number 1: Alpharetta traffic is horrible- this is simply not true. Well, it's no worse than any other part of Atlanta and it is better than most.

Myth Number 2: Alpharetta is snobbish - Really? If you think Alpharetta is snobbish then perhaps you should drive through some of the other "exclusive" communities in Atlanta.

Myth Number 3: Alpharetta is too expensive - Nothing could be farther from the truth.

So, myth number one that I hear more than any other is related to traffic. I drove from I-285 and GA 400 to Exit 8, Mansell road yesterday in the middle of rush our in 15 minutes. I think it's about 12 miles so that makes it what we call a speed limit ride. In the heart of rush hour. Hmm...that's not so bad.

Myth number two, I think, is perpetuated because of Alpharetta's demographic. I live in Alpharetta and I know many people here and I do not believe this to be the case at all and my experiences back it up. Whether I'm at the grocery store, picking my daughter up from school or out to eat, everyone around me is very friendly.

Finally, I have to say that Alpharetta has as diverse of a housing inventory as anywhere else in Atlanta. Prices range from the mid $100's up to multi-million dollar homes and everything in between.

So before you believe everything you hear, I believe it's important to know that not everyone agrees with the "beliefs" that many people have about Alpharetta and as home prices go, you can view all of the homes for sale in Alpharetta on my website and I believe that you will find clearly for yourself that Alpharetta is much more than a snobbish, executive city where no one cares about anyone but themselves.
