Speechless Sunday - 11/29/09 09:48 AM
I do not usually do speechless Sunday as it is the day I make up for my sleep deprived week. However this morning I walked out on the front porch with coffee in hand. I was listening and trying to see a woodpecker that was busy in one of the trees in our yard. Never saw it. But managed to get a picture of these folks instead. This NYC transplanted kid  LOVES LIVING IN THIS MOUNTAINS.

A Thankful Thankssgiving - 11/28/09 01:12 PM
This was a great Thanksgiving. We have a lot to be thankful for. We had a house full of company . They left today. We had a great party Friday night. We had friends and family here for a fun dinner on Thursday.
One of the things I am most thankful for is there were no fire calls . Usually at this time of the year we have a chimney fire or a turkey fryer fire. As many are cooking and imbibing people get careless. But this Thanksgiving we got no calls. So I am really thankful for that.

Thanksgiving - 11/20/09 08:03 AM
Thanksgiving is becoming a holiday that may be better called Reconnect day. It is a time to reconnect with family and friends . During the year we become involved in day to day. We often miss seeing family and friends. We have less dinners at the table. So Thanksgiving to me is a day , after the cooking is done and we all sit down together, to take a deep breath look around the table, smile and reconnect.
So I guess while ity is a day to reconnect it is also a time to give thanks for being part of the … (5 comments)

Are you a private property advocate - 11/15/09 10:42 AM
I am a private property advocate. What does that mean? It means I support the bills that go through our state legislation that defend the rights of property owners. Property cannot move. So it is an easy target for those who want to raise money through taxes. This struggle goes back to the Doomsday book and probably even further.
So if you are a Realtor you must also be a private property advocate. Think about NAR being the largest ,member wise, lobby in the U.S. Do you think if your sellers and buyers saw you as a private property advocate you … (5 comments)

If you are looking for a home in Big Canoe this is a great time to buy. Prices are really good right now. Yes you will have association fees but you do get a lot of things for your money.
As my wife and I drive and look at beautiful North Georgia scenes we always end up saying, "OK after we sit on the porch for a couple of days then what?" Many folks who live and want to live in the mountains end up making the this mistake. They buy out in the country. Now this is fine if you … (5 comments)

This is a great time to look for a home - 11/07/09 04:33 PM
If you are looking for a Mountain home or land now is the time to look. NOT because of the 8,000 credit. NOT because of the new 6500 existing home buyer credit. NOT because prices are very very good. NOT because interest rates are low.
NOW is the time to look because the leaves are off the trees! Now you will see your views that may have been hidden. Also you can get a really good look at the lay of the land. Also temperatures are wonderful for walking right now. So if you are looking in the North Georgia Mountains … (2 comments)

Why Can't I get my loan Modified ? - 11/07/09 07:53 AM
If you are looking for a loan modification and have been turned down you may wonder why. If your loan is commercial you will almost always be turned down. The question is why. After all weren't we all taught that 80 percent of something is better than 100 percent of nothing ?
Here is one answer. If your loan is through Fannie and Freddie then you stand a really good chance of getting a loan modification if you meet the criteria. But if your loan is held by private investors then your chances go way down. The reason is that the … (5 comments)

Fall In the Mountains - 11/02/09 03:59 PM
The North Georgia Mountains are pretty year round. This fall in the Big Canoe / Jasper area the rains came and washed away many of the leaves. But today in the sunshine as I was driving I managed to get these shots.

These pictures are from about 3000 feel up. The air was clear and the breeze was blowing. Temperature was in the 60's

It was pretty bright out but you get the idea. The North Georgia Mountains are Beautiful and a great place to live and raise a family. Contact us at All Mountain Realty . We would … (4 comments)
