Mrs. Jessica Morgan+FollowBig changes coming to Atlanta’s Galleria areaAlliance Residential just snapped up the Homewood Suites by Hilton Atlanta-Galleria/Cumberland for $16.65 million and plans to replace it with 300 new apartments.

The deal turned a quick profit for the previous owners, who bought it just 18 months ago. For locals, this could mean more housing options and a new look for the neighborhood. What do you think—will this upgrade help or hurt the area’s vibe? #Business #Atlanta #RealEstate00Share

Ramsey’s advice: cut back on extras, sell what you don’t need, and tackle debt head-on. It’s a reminder that lifestyle creep can sneak up on anyone, no matter your income. #Business #MoneyTalk #DebtFreeJourney00Share
