EnergyWise Home Performance provides homeowners, investors, and community stakeholders with information on residential rehabilitation, distressed properties, foreclosure opportunities, and neighborhood redevelopment across Metro Atlanta.

Our focus is identifying opportunities where existing homes can be restored, energy performance improved, and property value strengthened through responsible renovation. We also follow public housing initiatives and community revitalization programs that may create opportunities for property owners and qualified contractors.

Property listings, foreclosure notices, and redevelopment announcements are starting points for research—not guarantees of availability or investment returns. EnergyWise emphasizes verified property information, realistic construction budgets, applicable building requirements, and careful financial evaluation before recommending any project.

Metro Atlanta Land Bank — Property Acquisition

The Metro Atlanta Land Bank maintains an inventory of vacant and distressed properties, including residential lots and properties that may be suitable for rehabilitation.

Individuals, businesses and nonprofit organizations may apply to purchase qualifying properties.

DeKalb County — Property Opportunities
