A Message from Charlotte

Holidays are always a busy time for clients to tour Peachtree Hills Place, and this year has been no different. Many of you have asked about sales and appreciation of your homes. As you can see from the information shown here, sales have done very well. Also, frequently, I am asked how we compare with other communities. I am happy to sit down with you and review the pricing structure for other communities. Just let me know if you would like to schedule a time.

Happy Holidays,

Charlotte
