This Week in Atlanta Real Estate: The most expensive home listing in Georgia, a new mortgage company in Atlanta and more

by

The most expensive home listing in the state just went live for $25 million. The 17-acre, 35,000-square-foot home was previously owned by Tyler Perry, but is now being listed by televangelist David Turner, who will be moving out of state. The gated property is along the Chattahoochee River and includes an infinity pool, lighted tennis court, a new indoor resistance pool and a separate guest house. The property also has an underground ballroom with catering kitchen that is not included in the nearly 35,000 square feet encompassed in the main house.
