HARRY NORMAN REAL ESTATE GUIDE
Atlanta’s Housing Market in 2014 Expected to be Strong!Article by: Christina Abunassar
With the spring sales season just around the corner many homeowners are wondering if this is the right time to buy or sell their home. Harry Norman,
REALTORS are here to say NOW is the time! Analysts believe that 2014 is going to be a very strong year for the Atlanta housing market. According to the National Association of Builders, new home starts were up almost 70 percent in 2013 in the Atlanta Metro area. We have not seen this type of increase since before the recession.
The current inventory of available homes continues to remain low, so as the spring season approaches builders will have to work hard to keep up with an increasing demand. This creates a great opportunity for homeowners who are looking to list their homes. Lower inventory means less competition! As consumer confidence in the market continues to climb, the demand will be even greater as more and more buyers enter the market.
From a buying perspective, interest rates are rising but continue to remain low. Buyers should take advantage of the lower rates now. With consumer and builder confidence on the rise and the increase in construction spending stimulating the economy, rates are predicted to rise as the economy stabilizes. With all of the positive changes occurring in the Atlanta real estate market, Harry Norman believes now is the perfect time to buy or sell a home. Contact us today, and let us show you why we are #1 in the Atlanta area!

HARRY NORMAN REAL ESTATE GUIDE
The History of Harry Norman, REALTORS®Article by: Editor
In 1929, Mrs. Emmaline “Miss Emmie” Harrison Norman entered into the real estate business out of her sincere desire to see customers’ receive better service. Her husband, Harry Norman, Sr., was an engineer for the Southern Bell Telephone Company and after the stock market crash; the Normans placed their home on the market. Finding no customer service-focused representation, Miss Emmie earned her broker’s license and sold her home at a profit at the beginning of the Great Depression. “Brother can you spare a dime?” became one of the catch phrases of the Great Depression. The 1930s were no ordinary times and Emmaline Norman was no ordinary woman. In spite of the harsh reality that many businesses did not survive the Great Depression, Miss Emmie, as she was known, held fast to her vision for the future, as well as her success as a woman working in an industry dominated by men inspired her to start Mrs. Harry Norman & Associates – Atlanta’s first exclusively residential real estate company.
The Harry Norman, Realtors of today is a company that is on the cutting edge of real estate. The company has a solid history of attracting and nurturing the best and brightest people, great service and a stellar reputation. A company full of forward thinkers, Harry Norman, Realtors is a company willing to make the right steps for a sound future to ensure another great 75 years in business serving Atlanta and surrounding areas.
As Harry once said…
“We’re not the best because we’re the oldest. We’re the oldest because we’re the best.” -Harry Norman, Jr.
