Roswell Black Friday
November 25, 2011 by Aaron Hofmann
Filed under Real Estate
Day after Thanksgiving can only mean one thing. #1 LSU vs #3 Arkansas. OK, maybe two things. It’s also Black Friday.
For some savvy Roswell shoppers it’s time to assault the stores on what has become known as Black Friday. Now while you may be looking to take advantage of the latest deals, keep in mind that not all deals are found in the stores.
Another option is in the Roswell real estate market. Home prices have been reduced and interest rates are phenomenal. These kind of deals are going to be hard to beat in the stores or even online. To make your Black Friday shopping spree, easier, we’ve compiled up-to-date lists of Roswell short sales as well as foreclosures in Roswell.
If you’re interested in taking advantage of the Roswell Black Friday deals in the real estate market, be sure to contact us for your free buyer consultation.

Join Bulloch Hall and get into the spirit of the season as they host the classic Charles Dickens tale “A Christmas Carol” on December 3, 16, 17 and 23 at 8 p.m. Tickets are $15 per person and seating is very limited.
In this holiday favorite, Charles Dickens shows us Ebenezer Scrooge as he falls asleep in his dingy, cold quarters on Christmas Eve. The old miser is visited by three ghosts, each revealing to Scrooge his wrong doings and what will happen if he continues in his evil ways. A traditional holiday classic for the entire family, guaranteed to fill you with the Christmas spirit and warm your heart.
The former artistic director of Kudzu Playhouse, Wally Hinds, knows a lot about “A Christmas Carol.” He has been producing, directing and acting in the show in Roswell since 1991. This year’s production will once again feature Brink Miller as Ebenezer Scrooge, who has been playing the part in Roswell every Christmas for 16 years.
For more information, please contact Bulloch Hall at 770-992-1731
