Third Neighborhood Home For Sale


Another home in LaFayette Ridge has hit the real estate market. The asking price is $159,900. The home is listed as a short sale. More info is available here.


The home sold on March 10, 2006 for $369,000.


Update: The listing agent, Ron Dickerson, has no affiliation with the bank. He is a real estate agent from Buckhead who is taking offers to the bank independently. He said, "the bank has not approved this price or deal." The offer/price may be rejected by the bank and the home may ultimately end up in foreclosure.

The cookout was the main topic of discussion. The Spring cookout will be held on Sat., April 30th at 6 p.m. in Emma's backyard. So far, neighbors have signed up to bring chips, drinks, slaw, baked beans, fixins, banana pudding, and a few desserts. Please let Maria know if your family will attend and what item(s) you'll bring. Our HOA dues will cover the cost of the meat and buns.

Other items discussed: The Thompson's had a large tree/limb slice through their pool pavilion after Saturday's storm. No one was injured. Repairs are needed. And in better news for the Thompson's, their daughter will tie the knot this summer! Congrats!
