Just wanted to show you guys a property we did in the mozely park area that went under contract within 60 days of listing. I will attach a few before pictures and you can see after pictures here: https://www.zillow.com/homedetails/193-Racine-St-SW-Atlanta-GA-30314/35846472_zpid/?

Will be happy to answer questions and/or help any investor that needs it.

 I don't work in renovations. But I bet since you have structural work, that is one of the reasons. I have some architect friends that have done decks for City of Atlanta, not sure if it was client or city driven though (even small projects seem to need design professionals).

I bet Atlanta is just sick of the nonsense they see trying to review projects with no design professionals involved, they review soo many projects that it may be a good way for them to increase their review efficiency.

Once your architect and engineer is on board it should smooth out. They have been taking around 5-7 business days after resubmitting plan comments, although with an entire new set of drawings it would not surprise me if it takes considerably longer in your case. Once you see everyone has approved in accella, you will get kicked into a final "plan coordination" step, that takes another handful of days it seems.
