What $200K buys around Atlanta right now

This installment of Curbed Comparisons looks at what $200,000—give or take $9,000—will still garner with condos and fixer-uppers around Atlanta at the moment.

When shopping at this price point, finding older, yet updated condos in sought-after neighborhoods is easy, provided space is not a huge factor. Likewise, landing a fixer-upper just beyond the confines of Atlanta’s core isn’t difficult, and many even include a good amount of space. The question here becomes: Just how much fixing do you want to do?

Labeled a “fantastic investment opportunity” in Southwest Atlanta’s Venetian Hills, this 2,290-square-foot home includes three bedrooms and three bathrooms.

The HOA fees were not disclosed, so it’s unclear how much they will add to the current asking price of $195,000.

With four bedrooms and two bathrooms, this 1,920-square-foot Cape Cod home in Westview offers plenty of potential for those wanting a true fixer-upper. In fact, this property looks like it could benefit from an entire gutting before rebuilding from the foundation up. The yard also will require quite a bit of cleanup and rehab in order to be move-in ready. As such, the current asking price of $199,900 certainly would be a mere starting point for any budgeted renovation.
