Living in Doraville, Georgia
Doraville is a DeKalb County city about 13 miles (straight line) from downtown Atlanta. The former General Motors Doraville Assembly plant, a 165-acre site beside the MARTA Gold line, has been redeveloped, and part of it is now Assembly Atlanta, a film and television production campus. MARTA's Doraville station is the north end of the Gold line, and the city promotes Buford Highway Restaurant Month each year.
Why Choose Doraville?
The site owners say CAMS and its Atlanta partner Integral bought the 165-acre property near I-285 and I-85 from GM in 2014, and Third Rail Studios has been on the site since 2016. The landscape architects' project page describes a 2.75-acre studio pond and a 4-acre public park built to manage stormwater, where the old plant had none for its 75-acre building footprint.

Selling a Home in Doraville
About 60% of Doraville homes were built before 1980, so inspections often turn up older roofs, HVAC, plumbing or electrical work. Dexter is a licensed Georgia contractor with 20+ years as a contractor, so he can walk the house with you and help you decide which repairs are worth making before you list and which to leave for the buyer.
Listing on the open market is the usual route. On some properties, Dexter may make a direct written cash offer, disclosed in writing as a licensee acting as a principal for his own account. No offer is promised. See how listing works or request a home value estimate.
