In a recent Hollywood Life interview, Lori Lane, a top authority in Atlanta’s luxury real estate market, shared exclusive insights into why celebrities are increasingly drawn to the city’s vibrant real estate scene. As the President of Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices Georgia Properties New Homes Division and Senior VP of Luxury and Global, Lori has a front-row seat to the trends shaping this booming market.
Lori Lane’s expertise is reflected in her leadership of the New Homes Division, which serves a high-profile clientele of builders and developers across Greater Atlanta. Additionally, her role as broker for the Buckhead office underscores her influence in the luxury real estate sector.
Why Celebrities Choose Atlanta
In her Hollywood Life interview, Lori Lane discussed the key factors that make Atlanta a magnet for celebrities. These insights align with a recent Wall Street Journal article highlighting the trend of celebrities investing in Georgia’s luxury homes.
“Atlanta has become a top destination for celebrities due to its unique combination of affordability, quality of life, and thriving entertainment industry,” Lori explains. “Our state’s generous tax incentives and production credits have positioned Georgia as a leading hub for film and television production. This influx of production activity has boosted the local economy and attracted celebrities who are drawn to the city’s vibrant entertainment scene.”
Another significant factor is the cost of living. Compared to cities like Los Angeles and New York, Atlanta offers a high quality of life at a lower cost. “Celebrities are finding that they can enjoy luxury living here without the exorbitant prices found in other major cities,” says Lori.
The city’s exclusive restaurants, world-class entertainment venues, and privacy make it an appealing choice for high-profile individuals. Additionally, Atlanta’s strategic location as a major transportation hub with Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport provides easy access for celebrities who frequently travel.
“Atlanta’s vibrant social scene and networking opportunities also make it an ideal location for celebrities looking to expand their professional networks and pursue new business ventures,” Lori adds. “The blend of Southern hospitality and cosmopolitan charm is something unique to our city.”
The Allure of Buckhead
When discussing luxury living in Atlanta, Buckhead inevitably comes up. This neighborhood is a longstanding favorite among affluent homebuyers. Lori Lane elaborates on why Buckhead remains a prime choice.
“Buckhead is the epitome of luxury living in Atlanta. It’s perfectly situated just north of downtown, offering proximity to world-class dining, shopping, and entertainment without being in the thick of the urban hustle,” she says. “The architectural diversity here is stunning, from historic mansions to sleek modern estates. But beyond the homes, Buckhead offers a true community feel with excellent schools and a welcoming atmosphere for families and professionals alike.”
Trilith and The Homestead at Milton: Pioneering Developments
Lori also highlighted two groundbreaking developments that her New Homes Division is involved with: Trilith and The Homestead at Milton. These projects exemplify the future of luxury living in Atlanta.
Trilith: Innovation and Inspiration
Trilith, located in Fayetteville, is a master-planned community adjacent to Trilith Studios, the largest working studio in North America. “Trilith is designed for those who live to create and inspire. It’s a walkable community blending live, work, and play amenities, with a range of home styles from micro homes to large estates,” Lori explains. “It’s a place where top talent and production crews from around the world come together.”
The Homestead at Milton: A Vision of Opulence
Just thirty miles north of Atlanta, The Homestead at Milton offers a meticulously crafted vision of luxury. “Nestled in the countryside of Milton on what was once a golf course, The Homestead is now home to some of Atlanta’s elite. The spacious, private 4–10-acre lots provide unparalleled seclusion and tranquility yet are just minutes from top dining and shopping venues,” says Lori.
These developments are reshaping Atlanta’s suburban landscape, offering innovative and luxurious living options that cater to the needs and aspirations of today’s discerning homeowners.
The Future of Atlanta’s Luxury Market
Atlanta’s luxury real estate market is experiencing unprecedented growth and transformation. From the timeless elegance of Buckhead to the innovative developments of Trilith and The Homestead at Milton, the city offers a wealth of opportunities for those seeking the ultimate in luxury living. With its vibrant culture, booming economy, and world-class amenities, Atlanta continues to attract affluent residents and entertainment industry professionals, solidifying its status as a premier destination for luxury real estate.
