When you live next to the water, every day feels like a vacation! From serene mornings on the water to gorgeous sunsets in the evening, there are many ways to indulge in the laid-back atmosphere of lake living. Dan Rogers, sales manager with Peachtree Residential, sits down with Host Carol Morgan on the Atlanta Real Estate Forum Radio podcast to discuss Peachtree Residential's newest lakeside communities: White Post on Lanier and Arden on Lanier. Convenience is Key For many homebuyers, convenience is a deciding factor when purchasing a new residence. Rogers explains that Lake Lanier used to be “kind of out there,” but as the surrounding land has developed, homes along its shores are just minutes from grocery stores, restaurants and recreation. The quietness of life on the lake attracts prospective buyers of all backgrounds, including retirees and “empty nesters” shopping for their dream homes and families. Peachtree Residential is committed to providing accessible living options for residents of all backgrounds. Many homes feature a primary suite on the main level, or homeowners can choose a plan with an upstairs suite for added comfort and privacy. Rogers said, “We also have several plans that have the primary [suite] and another bedroom on the main floor, which has been hugely popular, certainly with empty nesters, but with growing families as well.” White Post on Lanier White Post on Lanier, located just under one-half mile from Port Royale Marina, is a dream come true for homebuyers looking to add boating or lake views to their daily routines. Residents enjoy dedicated boat slips at the community marina, each deeded to their selected homesites. Rogers said, “It's a deep-water boat dock within the Port Royal Marina no-wake zone.” This community features 15 homesites with 11 inventory home opportunities. Ready to unlock your dream home at the lake? The first three homes at White Post on Lanier are set for completion this summer. Prospective buyers can snatch up those homesites or build from Peachtree Residential's existing floorplan collections for a personalized fit. “The nice thing about a home that's underway is there are less surprises,” said Rogers. “Obviously, the advantage of choosing a lot and doing a pre-sale is you get to make every decision.” Homesites range from 3,500 square feet to three-quarters of an acre, providing abundant green space that can easily transform into a backyard pool! To maximize living space, most homes include a basement, 10-foot ceilings and a three-car garage perfect for boat storage. Arden on Lanier Also nestled along Lake Lanier, in Cumming, Arden on Lanier offers high-class living and cozy amenities. Residents have exclusive access to walking trails, a fire pit and nearby lake entry points via Tidwell Park. Beautiful interiors await in each home, showcasing spacious bedroom suites, kitchens with islands and a scenic, wooded view in the backyard. Rogers said, “Outdoor living is also something we've been adding to homes, with covered porches, fireplaces, screen porches and all those things for people who want to live close to the lake and have outdoor living right behind their house as well.” Tune in to the full episode to learn about lake living and where to find it with Peachtree Residential. Home shoppers can schedule a tour of these communities with Rogers every day, excluding Thursdays and Fridays.

As home prices rise, prospective buyers continue to bite their nails and wonder, “Where can I find affordable housing near Atlanta?” The affordable housing crisis is a nationwide conversation, but the Atlanta market is actively seeking solutions for its homebuyers. Mandy Crater, executive director of HomeAid Georgia, Natallie Keiser, executive director of HouseATL and Garrett Wiley, VP of government affairs at Greater Atlanta Home Builders Association (GAHBA) sit down with Host Carol Morgan on the Atlanta Real Estate Forum Radio podcast to discuss the upcoming Housing Affordability Summit. Set for May 21 at GAHBA headquarters, this event will bring together professionals in the Atlanta housing sector and local legislators for a thorough discussion on affordable housing throughout the state. “I'm excited to bring all my friends together in one room and talk about the need for more housing that is attainable,” said Crater. “There's just a deficit of housing at all levels, but especially at the more affordable levels.” Homebuilder Toolkit HomeAid Georgia and HouseATL teamed up to create a toolkit for homebuilders, providing them with the knowledge and empowerment to pursue affordable housing options. This toolkit will launch at the Housing Affordability Summit, featuring case studies on Atlanta-specific projects and a focus on four partnership models – public sector, private sector, nonprofit sector and the philanthropic sector. Homebuilders can access design methods, land acquisition strategies, financing advice and more, right at their fingertips. The average home price has risen 35% over the last five years, which dramatically affects first-time homebuyers and retirees looking to downsize. Keiser points out that homeownership is an avenue for equity and wealth, which is why the toolkit is so important for today's builders and prospective buyers. Homebuilders are the “boots on the ground” at these communities, so it's very important to include them in the conversation. They can paint a clear picture of the process, from acquisition to the final product. “The challenges that we have in the housing market are serious,” said Keiser. “They are complex. They're systemic. To address them, we need a broad base of knowledge, skills, creativity and resources and that's what we try to bring that together.” The toolkit includes a wide array of partnership examples, including projects by Fortis Homes, O'Dwyer Homes, Cityscape Housing, 3384 Residential and nonprofits partners Atlanta Land Trust, Atlanta Habitat for Humanity and Atlanta Neighborhood Development Partnership. Housing Affordability Summit “I feel like this forum is going to give us an opportunity to hear from several different sides, including the sort of regulatory issues that we're dealing with,” said Crater. “It's just a much clearer picture and a much broader conversation that I think needs to be had more often.” One of the biggest topics expected at the Housing Affordability Summit is how building regulations play into the housing affordability crisis. Wiley points out that federal regulations are mandatory, but many of the state regulations fall directly into the hands of cities and counties. “What I really want to hone in on is the interpretation of the regulation that goes into the scheduling of putting a house on the ground from property under contract to CO,” said Wiley. “What we want to discuss during the housing affordability forum with our elected officials and our counties and city staff members is how we can eliminate that gap.” Georgia serves over 70 municipalities across 10 counties. Within those municipalities, there are many different ideas of what affordable housing really looks like. Wiley discusses the importance of educating legislators on how their policies affect the affordable housing crisis, for better and for worse. “It is at the top list for just about every state legislator in the metro Atlanta area,” said Wiley.

In this episode of The Distribution, host Brandon Sedloff welcomes back Sabina Reeves, Chief Economist and Head of Insights at CBRE Investment Management, for a global tour of the forces reshaping capital flows, investment strategy, and real estate allocation in 2025. Sabina breaks down how macroeconomic shocks, geopolitical realignment, and inflationary pressures are driving a new phase of regional divergence. She explains how allocators are recalibrating their assumptions across the U.S., Europe, and Asia-Pacific, and why fundamentals alone are no longer enough to make allocation decisions. The conversation spans real estate, infrastructure, and private markets—with an emphasis on nuance, context, and long-term thinking. Key topics include: Why Europe is showing signs of economic reflation, led by Germany and Spain Japan's investment appeal as it exits decades of deflation How the U.S. is grappling with stagflation risk and pricing in a new risk premium The bifurcation between modern and legacy logistics and its implications for asset values Real-time insights into sectors like retail, residential, office, and data centers How AI is accelerating “corporate ozempic” and reshaping operational headcount and capital deployment Sabina also shares her perspective on how institutional investors are (and aren't) adapting to technological transformation, the evolving role of data in decision-making, and what it will take for the real estate industry to match the sophistication of the tenants it serves. This conversation is a must-listen for anyone allocating capital, building real assets strategies, or trying to understand what's next in an increasingly complex global market.

There are bits of advice that one collects over a 30 year career and when given the chance, some are worth passing on to those who care to listen. While this could have been a lessons from my father sort of episode, we decided to keep things focused on those of us who either are, or want to be, architects, and we are going to pass along a handful of things that we wish we had known at the start of our careers. Welcome to Episode 174: Dear Future Architects. [Note: If you are reading this via email, click here to access the on-site audio player] Partial Results from an Instagram Poll asking the question what "Future Architects" should know ... click to enlarge Today we are going to be talking about those interesting considerations and bits of advice that have been shared with us during our career. While they might not be applicable to everyone, I feel pretty confident that all the items we will be discussing today are of value. This will be the first “Dear Future Architects post as there are too many items to work through in a single episode. These are in the order than they came to mind and I didn't want to presume a specific priority to them and set them in order of value. I also want to throw in there that a few of these are pretty hot and I fully expect people to think I am full of s%!t … but I am here to bring the pain. 01 Dear Future Architects ... jump to 04:55 Choose your firm based on the skills you want to build. Residential firms often hone your soft skills—communication, empathy, and negotiation—while commercial firms emphasize technical depth, systems coordination, and documentation. Source: https://www.lifeofanarchitect.com/big-or-small-whats-the-right-sized-firm-for-you/ In reflecting on my career, I've come to realize that the size of the firm you work for can shape the skills you develop, especially early in your career. If you're just starting out, a small firm offers the opportunity to develop soft skills like communication, empathy, and negotiation because you're often thrown into situations where you're the point of contact with clients, contractors, and team members. You're more involved with every aspect of a project, and that experience helps you build your confidence. On the other hand, in larger firms, you get more exposure to complex projects that require technical proficiency, systems management, and understanding of legalities. While big firms can make you a better architect in that sense, they may not provide as many opportunities to hone those soft skills until you reach a higher level in the company. Personally, I've found that small firms, while sometimes lacking in technical depth, gave me the chance to sharpen my communication skills and gain a more intimate understanding of how a project works from start to finish. This has served me well as I've moved up in my career. But the reality is, each environment teaches you something different, and depending on what you want to learn, one might be a better fit for you than the other. 02 Dear Future Architects ... jump to 11:58 Start small if you plan to go solo. Working in a small firm exposes you to every aspect of running a practice—from contracts and client meetings to redlines and billing—which is invaluable if owning your own firm is in your future. Source: https://www.lifeofanarchitect.com/architectural-job-starter-kit/ Looking at the question of whether to start in a small firm if you plan to eventually go solo, I believe it's the best way to prepare. In a small firm, you're exposed to everything: you write proposals, manage clients, and get a feel for what it really takes to run an office. When I switched from a small firm to a larger one, I found that my skills didn't always align with what was expected. In a larger firm, tasks like proposal writing are handled by specialists, not generalists like I had been in a small firm. That experience made me realize that if you want to open your own office one day,
