The Susie Uhlich Podcast

Most people moving to North Atlanta fight over the same big-name neighborhoods, get shocked by the prices, and rule out the whole area. But the real value in North Fulton isn't about which city; it's about which pocket, and overlooked neighborhoods offer the same lifestyle and strong schools for much less. In my video, I break down three kinds of hidden pockets most buyers never find, plus the one school-zone tip that can save you a costly mistake. Watch it before you start your search.

People keep asking me if they missed their window to buy in North Atlanta. Metro Atlanta is projected to add nearly 1.8 million people by 2050, and unlike boxed-in cities like San Francisco and New York, it actually has room to build, which is exactly why prices here have stayed saner, and the growth keeps coming. In my new video, I give the honest, grounded picture of what's driving it, and reveal the part most people get wrong: where all that growth is actually landing. Watch it before you decide it's too late.

Thinking about moving to North Atlanta from out of state? First of all, welcome! It's bigger and more varied than most newcomers expect, and a few things will catch you off guard if nobody warns you first. In this video, I cover the five things you really need to know before you move: your community, your budget, the local details, our market, and buying from another state. Watch my video before you start your North Atlanta home search.

Trying to decide between Alpharetta and Johns Creek? You might be asking the wrong question. These two North Atlanta suburbs sit right next to each other, and buyers ask me constantly which one is better, but honestly, neither one is. It comes down to what you want your everyday life to feel like. In this video, I break down how they compare on the things that actually decide it: schools, lifestyle, commute, and real estate markets, so you can tell which one is truly yours. Watch my video before you plant roots in either one.

You're getting ready to sell, and the question sitting at the front of your mind is how long it's actually going to take. Some homes go under contract in days while others linger for months, and most sellers assume the market is calling the shots, when the truth is usually much closer to home. In this video, I share the one number I have every client watch, why condition can quietly cost you the offer, and the short window where most of the real activity happens. Watch my video before you decide how to price and prep your home.

Prices are about to crash. Rates will keep everyone on the sidelines. It's the perfect time to buy. All three ran somewhere this week, and not one mentioned your street. I answer the four questions I keep getting this summer, and show you why what's happening nationally has almost nothing to do with what's happening in your neighborhood. Watch my video, and we'll look at the real numbers.

You listed your home three weeks ago, the photos look great, the price feels right, and your agent keeps calling with the same update: no new showings, no offers. That’s the moment sellers start second-guessing everything, but before you make any big moves, you need to understand what’s actually going on. In this video, I walk you through three things you can do right now to figure out why your home isn't selling and how to get it back in front of the right buyers. Watch my video before you drop your price or blame your agent.

Thinking about updating your home before selling? Be careful where you spend your money. One of the biggest mistakes I see is homeowners investing in the wrong projects and not getting that money back at closing. In this video, I walk you through the updates that actually pay off, the ones that don't, and a simple way to think about where your renovation dollars go the furthest. Watch my video to make sure you're spending smart before you list.

Have you ever received an offer on your home that made you wonder if the buyer was even serious? Lowball offers are one of the most frustrating parts of selling, but how you respond can be the difference between losing the deal and negotiating it into something that works. In this video, I share four strategies I use with my sellers to turn low offers into real contracts, including the $20,000-under-asking scenario and exactly how I handle it. Watch my video to see how to stay in control of the negotiation from start to finish.

You've found your dream home, but how do you buy it without ending up with two mortgages, or worse, having nowhere to go? I walk through five options for securing your next home before yours sells, from sale contingencies and bridge loans to newer programs from Orchard and Knock, plus the temporary occupancy agreement we use here in Georgia. Each one comes with trade-offs, and the right strategy depends on your situation. Watch my video to see which approach fits yours.
