East Cobb Homes for Sale

Our favorite "pick" this week is a foreclosure in Highland Pointe, a Marietta neighborhood located in East Cobb. The home has 4 bedrooms on the main levels, 4 full baths and 1 half bath on a finished basement plus a 3 car garage. With spectacular views off Sweat Mountain, the home is assessed for almost half a million and is listed for $369,900.

Remember, as always, that these "deals" aren't always what they seem- sometimes banks and corporations list their homes at or near market value regardless of their condition, so you always want to make sure you know what other homes have sold for in the neighborhood/area and how the neighborhood/area is trending in value.
