DeKalb County is Going Green!

Low flow fixtures required in new purchases in DeKalb County GA

Low flow fixtures are now required
for DeKalb County homeowners
who buy and close after Jun. 1, 2008

Due to the recent drought conditions that have plagued Georgia for over a year, a New Ordinance has been passed by the DeKalb County Commissioners. This requires that in all home purchases which occur after June 1st 2008, the plumbing fixtures have to be replaced in order for the new owners to get water in their name. The DeKalb County Department of Watershed Management is enforcing this rule. It applies to everyone who gets their water from DeKalb County. This excludes the parts of the City of Atlanta that fall within DeKalb County, as they get their water from the City of Atlanta.

Cash Allowance on new HUD listings

$1000 Cash Back to Georgia HUD HOME Buyers

$1000 Cash allowance for Owner Occupants on new listings

There are a few restrictions:

  • Property must be listed after June 4 2008. These properties must be NEW listings not relistings of homes which had contracts fall through or price reductions
  • The property must be fully under contract (contract must be signed by HUD) during the first 30 days of it’s listing.
  • This is only available to OWNER OCCUPIED properties
  • The type of financing does not affect the allowance.

The $100 downpayment on insured properties is still in effect, so when you combine it with this new incentive, there couldn’t be a better time to buy a HUD Home! There is a lot of inventory and you can probably find one to fit your needs! There are plenty of HUD homes on the market and if you call me at 770-HUD-HOME I can help you get one!
