What $400K buys around Atlanta right now

For this installment of Curbed Comparisons, we look at what $400,000—give or take $2,500—purchases around Atlanta at the moment.

This particular price point is still an ideal target for finding homes around the city, rather than just two or three specific neighborhoods, as with higher marks. Another commonality: Regardless of home type, most of these clock in at about 1,300 square feet—not too large, but not exactly shoeboxes either.
