As Home Prices Increase, So Does Appeal of Exurban Areas

As home prices continue to rise in metro Atlanta and in other larger metro areas around the country, many home builders and buyers seeking lower prices are looking to the exurbs, or semirural areas beyond the suburbs. Many home buyers are willing to accept longer commutes for the chance to buy an affordable home, and builders are able to offer lower prices in these areas because of the availability of more building lots at less expensive prices. Real estate analysts expect continued growth in exurban areas in the coming months.
