And NOW… mortgage rates are at a 50-year low. And some experts predict that home prices could go even lower – or at least not go higher in the short term. On the Equifax Personal Finance blog, Real Estate Expert Ilyce Glink argues that NOW really is a good time to buy because of those two factors. Your new home will cost less because prices are so low and because you won’t pay as much to finance it.

But if you really are planning to get off the fence NOW, you need to plan to stay in your home for awhile. Check out Ilyce’s post at Equifax to find out why before you buy your new home.

Residents of the Atlanta loft condos can easily walk to any number of nearby eateries, antique shops, art galleries or coffee shops. And even though the lofts are in the city, a newly converted biking and walking trail is close. The trail, once an old railroad, includes more than two acres of a linear park. The trail features brick pavers, an observation deck, benches and beautiful landscaping. Everyone, including bikers, dog walkers, and active runners can enjoy the beautiful and quite retreat the trail provides.

The live, work, play lifestyle enjoyed by residents at the Lofts at 5300 is made even easier with the Chamblee MARTA station right across the street. Additionally, the lofts are close to Lenox and Phipps Plaza so shoppers have nearby access to some of Atlanta’s finest stores. Such a convenient location means residents have the freedom to leave their car at home while they spend an evening or day out on the town.

The Lofts at 5300 is a one-of-a-kind mixed use development in Chamblee, Georgia. The project has 242 lofts in a mid-rise building which offer a variety of floorplans.

Developed by Carter Development Company, INC the lofts are reasonably priced from $108,900 to $214,900.
