Is it a good time to buy a house in ATL? If so, where? Prices seem high - open to house, townhouse or maybe a condo

I also don’t think Amazon is coming to atl. Especially not after all of the politics between Delta and GA GOP

Buying in ATL is highly dependent on location. Midtown and other hot areas, homes seem to appreciate. I’d even say the same goes for Alpharetta, East Cobb (maybe) and a couple of others outside of the perimeter. However, other places, homes value seem to appreciate at a much slower rate

I heard from a real estate investor Atlanta is a tricky market and not the best place to invest. Home values don’t increase significantly or at least they haven’t

Just bought a condo in midtown. Anticipating solid appreciation. If we get Amazon, I'm golden. Would be down to discuss my thought process/experience

Bought a house in the burbs and it’s gone up $200k in years. Mainly because of the public schools.

Its a done deal Amazon HQ2 to Arlington VA

Prices are rising very quickly. I bought in Toco Hills two years ago and the prices have increased 20% already

Appreciation aside, it’s a tough market right now. I’ve got friends looking to buy, and every house they look at has at least 5 offers within a week of being on the market it seems

AWS vs Cloudflare BDR roles

AWS lowballed but I negotiated to match Cloudflare. Cloudflare offers more equity but AWS has a higher base.

I love Cloudflare. The people are great but it’s an engineering culture and the sales team isn’t as well shaped up and I can’t go for a promotion until at least 18 months of tenure. I am an investor in the company and think of them super highly. I’ve already got half a years SDR experience and AWS promotes quicker.

AWS has prestige but is it worth it?

Curious as to how many deals at once is typical for a first year associate to take on (M&A, mostly private equity clients). Deal size is lower middle market and I’ve worked on deals ranging from $1-$110M. 2 deals at once is plenty for me, but it seems like my peers are able to take on more than that at once and still do fine. Maybe I’m just a slow learner/out of my league at the big law firm I’m at.

If the stock market were to tank, incl. all these ridiculous tech valuations, how do you guys think compensation packages will move in competitive fields such as IBD, consulting, big tech?

Based on current environments, I’ve two hypotheses:
1. Comp packages in competitive fields will continue strongly due to: a. less supply of top talent (great resignation), b. less willingness to work demanding jobs (push for wlb), and c. Rising living costs - inflation
2. Comp packages will get readjusted…
