🏡 Is Buying Still Better Than Renting?

With mortgage rates higher than we've seen in recent years, many people are wondering if renting makes more financial sense. But a recent analysis from Homes.com suggests that buying a home can still be a smart long-term investment, even with mortgage rates above 7%. The key isn't just the interest rate. It's also how home prices compare to rental costs and the potential to build wealth through homeownership.

The Bottom Line: Don't let mortgage rates alone determine whether it's the right time to buy. Every situation is different, and understanding your options can help you make a confident decision. Whether you're renting and considering your first home or planning your next move, Mary Towler and Team Towler are here to help you explore the possibilities!

✨ Former Model Home. Incredible Upgrades. Made for Entertaining. ✨

📍 203 Laurel Vista Dr, Canton, GA 30114

There’s a lot to love about this former Laurel Canyon model home, but the spaces designed for gathering and entertaining truly set it apart.

At the heart of the home is a newly renovated 2026 chef’s kitchen featuring custom cabinetry to the ceiling, quartz countertops, an oversized island, huge walk-in pantry, and stainless steel appliances that remain. The main level also offers beautiful hardwood floors, an executive office, spacious dining room, fireside living room, and a luxurious primary suite with sitting area, spa-like bath, and oversized walk-in closet.

And the living space doesn’t stop there. A full-length enclosed deck with EZBreeze windows and stacked stone fireplace creates a space to enjoy nearly year-round, while the finished terrace level offers a wet bar, game and entertaining space, and tons of natural light.

Step outside and you’ll find an entertainer’s dream: a huge covered patio with a built-in granite cooking station, gas grill, refrigerator, extended paver patio, and firepit. 🔥

All of this is located in sought-after Laurel Canyon, where residents enjoy golf-cart-friendly living, pool, pickleball, tennis, fitness center, clubhouse, playground, social clubs, and easy access to Fairways of Canton. ⛳

This isn’t a home you fully appreciate from a description. You need to experience the spaces for yourself.

🏈 The Soundtrack of College Football Saturdays 🎶

College football is about more than touchdowns and rivalries. For generations, fight songs have been part of the soundtrack of Saturdays in the fall, filling stadiums and bringing fans to their feet.

Many of college football’s most recognizable fight songs date back more than a century. Songs like Michigan’s “The Victors,” Notre Dame’s “Victory March,” Georgia’s “Glory, Glory,” and Tennessee’s “Rocky Top” have become closely tied to the traditions and spirit of their schools. Whether played after a touchdown, during a team entrance, or with thousands of fans singing along, these songs are part of what makes college football Saturdays so memorable.

And of course, no game day is complete without something good to eat! 🏈🍗 Southern Living has put together a collection of tried-and-true game-day favorites perfect for tailgating, hosting a watch party, or enjoying from the couch.
