Older homes, clearer decisions.
Jonesboro is the Clayton County seat and one of the older communities on the south side. Within the city limits, about seven in ten homes were built before 1980. Older homes can be great buys, and a thorough inspection shows you which updates have already been made and which are still ahead.
