What's typical SF range should they target. The property prices in these areas went up 2-3X and now falling fast. So confusing to estimate what's true price. People are listing properties very high and then slashing by 50-100k in 3 months of listing. I am not able to provide any good recommendations to my family.members. told them to wait couple of years so prices will find floor.

Can’t go wrong with any of those areas. Huge desi population there and excellent schools. For a decent SFH in those areas, 750-800k should be the budget. Prices are fairly stable here and I don’t see going down by much unless the job market materially deteriorates.

What's the reputation of Duluth, Peachtree Corners and Lawrenceville on schools? It doesnt seem to be talked about in same breadth as neighboring John's Creek and Suwanee for some reason but it does have a sizable Asian population. And Lawrenceville has the highest ranked high school in the state GCMST.

Those areas are tier 2-3 compared to JC, Alpharetta, Suwanee and South Forsyth. You are right about GCMST, though. That’s one of the best high schools in the country, let alone ATL area.
