Real estate agent shot outside partially renovated home

Atlanta police found the body of a real estate agent inside a partially renovated Howell Station home. He had been shot twice.

David Abbasi, 32, was found dead inside the home Friday afternoon. Police believe the husband and father was interested in buying the house, according to Channel 2 Action News.

Residents who live near the home say it has been left partially renovated for about a year. They worry Abbasi stumbled upon an armed drifter, but police have not released what happened, according to Channel 2.

The home, on the 1000 block of Longley Avenue, is listed for $250,000 on Zillow.
