Housing Market in Bartow County, GA
We live in Washington state and are considering moving to Georgia. We like that we can get a much larger home in Georgia for the same price as our small house here in Washington. What we are curious about is the market in Northern Georgia. Is is growing? Will our house be worth more in a year or two? We've been told that Bartow county will be developing more soon. Just curious and appreciate any insight.
Also, can anyone recommend a good private elementary or priviate school in Bartow county?
Thanks,
lehtofamily

Bartow will keep growing and of all the Metro counties will have the fewest residents in 2030.....
...the Market is not great right now if you want to sell....if you want to buy and stay in it for a while it will be good....
....the only problem Bartow may have in the future is 'septic' vs 'sewer' b/c of the current 'drought' situation....

Real estate is chancy right now -- hard to say if you buy today, it will be worth more in a year or two -- Bartow County still has plenty of land left for new subdivisions.
Bartow is pretty rural -- is that what you are looking for?

Bartow is out there- if you plan on working in Atlanta, be prepared for a 2 hour commute. That said, there's no way to predict what values will be over the next year or two- if you look more long-term though, I'd say Bartow will appreciate as more people move out there, but you could be talking 5-10 years before there's any major growth out there.

I live in northeast Bartow, 55 miles north of Atlanta. My commute to the GA Tech area is 50 to 75 minutes depending on traffic. I drive the speed limit all through Bartow with one stop sign on the way to the interstate. I don't hit any traffic until I get to Cobb County.

Depending on what you call major growth that should start this year. Cartersville is really booming right now and it wont be long before the smaller towns in the area like Emerson are too. When I worked in Sandy Springs it used to take me a little over an hour to get to work from North Cartersville and that was in bad traffic on 41 in Cartersville and once I hit Wade Green Road.
