Lead Story

Isaac Construction pulled a $1.3M permit for South Bogan Road off South Bogan Rd, Buford. The footprint is 6,158 sq ft on R100 zoning — larger-lot single-family — 100-ft lot minimums, common in newer neighborhoods. At roughly $203/sq ft in declared cost, that's mid-tier for a new home in this area. A custom build this size typically runs 14 to 20 months from permit to certificate of occupancy.

Over $22M declared this week. Plenty to watch as these break ground.
