Waterfront Properties Atlanta Announces Newly Updated Web Site for Buyers, Developers, Investors, Real Estate Agents, and Sellers

(PRWeb) March 8, 2007 -- Waterfront Properties Atlanta is pleased to announce their newly updated website, www.waterfrontpropertiesatlanta.com. As the name implies, the website is dedicated to providing information about waterfront properties to buyers, developers, investors, real estate agents, and sellers. Although the descriptive name of the website includes Atlanta, the site also provides information for waterfront properties outside of the Atlanta area.

There are many lakes throughout the surrounding Atlanta metro area aside from the major Georgia lakes. There are also other waterfront properties along the Chattahoochee River or any number of man-made lakes in subdivisions. The website also provides sellers, investors, and real estate agents the opportunity to showcase waterfront properties outside of the Georgia area to buyers that are seriously considering moving to another location.

"Our goal is to provide exposure of waterfront properties, lake front properties, and ocean front properties for sale in the real estate market," says Julia Walz, President of Waterfront Properties Atlanta. "The value of sites on water continues to increase. Baby boomers are beginning to look for a retirement home, whether they have already retired or plan to retire in the next few years. Others are looking for a second home where they can spend quality time with family and friends while at the same time their investment appreciates over time. Waterfront properties are ideally suited to meet the needs of anyone who enjoys activities around water, the calming and serene sounds of nature, and the time to relax, entertain, and be among family and friends. We also believe that this niche market will continue to grow as a large segment of the population shifts to home-based businesses. Communication technology continues to become more sophisticated. Employers value increased job efficiency and employees value minimizing commute time and avoiding traffic congestion."

The website features waterfront properties for sale in Georgia, Florida and Texas, with more areas of the country available soon. Georgia is where most of the properties are currently located. As the interest in displaying waterfront properties on this website increases, we anticipate that sellers, investors, and real estate agents will avail themselves of the tools to highlight their waterfront properties from other regions and states as well as internationally. The listings are available in a pleasing, easy to view formation, and offers tools to communicate about the waterfront property.

Every waterfront property has a unique set of characteristics that appeal to different people. Waterfront Properties Atlanta has developed their website to present each waterfront property in a way that easily demonstrates the appeal and value of each property. The properties in the listings are enhanced by the size of the photos and the descriptions for each photo. Walz says that "anyone viewing the properties on this website has the ability to step right into the front door of the waterfront property and look around from the comfort of your own home." In the future additional technology will be available to sellers, investors, and real estate agents to optimize this feature. Many of the waterfront properties are owned by the sellers directly or are listed by other real estate agents. As a licensed Georgia real estate agent, Walz on occasion markets her own investments on the website and waterfront properties of listings of clients that she represents.

Additionally, the website includes valuable information for sellers, buyers, and investors, including tips to buy or sell a waterfront property, questions to ask a lender, and answers to tax questions, plus more. "Our goal is to educate those interested in buying lakefront property, oceanfront homes or riverfront homes, so they can make a decision that is right for them," says Walz. "There are various criteria that should be considered and given thoughtful consideration before finally selecting a region or specific area of the country, such as climate, proximity to cultural events, hospitals, family and friends, dock access, recreational facilities, and much more. It is also important for someone selling a waterfront home to understand the market and how best to present their home to potential waterfront home buyers. "

The website also contains important information for those interested in purchasing waterfront property, such as information about the major Georgia lakes, subdivisions in the various counties that have views to smaller lakes in the Atlanta metro area, the Chattahoochee River, and tips to consider when purchasing a waterfront home. Accessing this website on a regular basis for news, interesting statistics, ideas for further thought, and even humorous stories about life on the waterfront will bring a smile to your face. We want to hear your experiences and share them with friends. All of the information is free for buyers, investors, real estate agents, and sellers. More information will be available soon.

Additionally, the website gives you access to a free monthly newsletter. You can also subscribe to this monthly newsletter, Julia's Walz Street Journal, by contacting us directly. Plus, visitors can forward a copy of this monthly newsletter to a friend at the bottom of the newsletter. In this monthly email newsletter, you will receive general information about the real estate market, trends that are developing, statistics about the real estate market, and much more, including a calendar of events for the Atlanta area if you live in metro Atlanta or would like to visit some time soon to look at a waterfront property that may have caught your attention.
