How do you combine your insights with other buying decisions...the obvious categorizing, comparing, and measuring involved in making those buying decisions when creating a Home on the Land? And is your sense of the LAND, itself...(how it speaks to you)...something to which you refer? As I said in Part 1, this question : “What’s your … (0 comments)
asheville land: Insights and Buying Decisions- Part 1 - 11/22/11 11:54 PM
INSIGHT Part 1 Asheville Real Estate Journal “What is your visceral reaction when you first look at this property--?” (see photo) That’s one of my favorite questions. Over the years, Big Advantages have shown up for my clients when they combine their "visceral feelings" or insights - with the entire process ofcategorizing, comparing, and measuring involved in buying (for example) an Equestrian Estate (see photo) and investing in Land, in general. Sometimes I wonder what would happen if all parties involved in a real property transaction dedicated time and energy to returning to their initial insights when making buying decisions.. Possibly, all concerned would be scouting out all-inclusive best use solutions, ( both, … (2 comments)
asheville land: Land in WNC- Asheville Sweet Steep Slopes - 10/27/11 02:52 PM
You may have heard that like Santa Fe, NM and Sedona, AZ, Asheville NC is at the very center for creative pursuit and expression in Western North Carolina (WNC.).
WNC is a region of about 10,000 square miles from the state line of Virginia to that of Georgia that extends north to the border of Tennessee.
It is known for being one of the most beautiful and attractive places on Earth...a place where there is time and space for one to reflect on the blessings in life....
It was getting late. Soon the birds would be nesting. I climbed to the top of the ridge, facing north. There in the venerable Asheville Mountains almost as old as time itself, something exciting ...yet unnamed ...was arranging itself between the coves and rising ridges. It spoke to the possibility, this very April evening of simultaneously starting anew and leaving yesterday behind.... Spring in Asheville! The season has painted her canvas with all the colors we anticipate each year as we rediscover an abundance of choices.... places to consider alone and with others...places where you and I can create "safe landings" for generations to … (12 comments)
asheville land: Asheville NC Lifestyle: Land and Sky and Mountains...and QUALITY (series) - 02/21/09 08:32 PM
If ever you need inspiration, you need go no further than my own back yard. Here the mountains curve to empowering skies, and softly point to possibility. The sense that anything is possible is in the air. Beyond the trees a muse may hide. Beyond the clouds there is light...and maybe hope... and this is what quality of life is all about... AH! Asheville, North Carolina! … (6 comments)
It was during the last days of Autumn in the mountains around Asheville .The canvas of orange, purple, red and gold splendor was giving way that morning to frostings of white see photo JT took on an outing last week) ...Soon it would be time to gather by warming hearth-fires. The telling of stories of the lands and people we love will commence. December would find characters coming to life as tales of the indigenous peoples and first settlers are told. And as the winter progressed, there would be, as there always was, talk of recent history, current events , local lore and news … (8 comments)
On our annual Fall Leaves photo shoot we strolled into mature hard woods at Three Creeks Preserve. (This is a local eco community within about 40 minutes of Asheville and only 10 minutes from Lake Lure, NC.) Following the colors, we traversed a foot bridge then connected with a trail that winds from the eco community at Three Creeks out into almost 300 acres of diverse terrain. What a canvas! As we continued on we climbed to the panorama of red, gold and purple and the mountain overlook. (Photo of Autumn in the Greater Asheville, NC Area. It is So … (2 comments)
asheville land: Lot 12 Hickory Nut Forest Eco-Community Gerton NC 28735 - 09/15/08 01:27 PM

asheville land: Eco-communities, Organic Farms & Farm Life : #1 in The Carolina Blue Skies Local Color Series. Asheville Area Sustainable Agriculture - 08/14/08 03:12 PM
When you think about sustainable agriculture, organic farms, eco-communities and quality of life in Asheville and the towns surrounding Her, you may wonder if this post is simply nugacity in an otherwise (hopefully) worthy landscape. However, some redeeming wisdom possibly survives- especially if you are a lover of guineafowl. So I'm gonna' take the risk, and tell this story . . . "Which One's the Guinea?" (A Carolina Blue Skies Local Color Story). Once upon a time, approximately 11 miles from downtown Asheville; or 7 miles from the where bustling Patton Avenue intersects Highway 63; or 5 miles from … (4 comments)
asheville land: Due Diligence: A Party on the LAND - 06/26/08 10:23 AM
We've been doing lots of "due diligence" on acreage and eco-community building sites this year. We actually love this time period. It's a "party" where we get together with everyone and enjoy a project of the land-kind. Here follows a series of posts on the typical steps involved as we coordinate with land experts and professionals the new land stewards and those who have been taking good care of the land for many years (or maybe for just a few years)..and all of us aim toward a happy and successful adventure. Step One: new land steward goes out onto the building site … (6 comments)
asheville land: From a Marketing Perspective LEED for Neighborhood Development - 06/25/08 02:13 PM
We've been introduced to a new project of sizable interest to our clients. It's called, LEED for Neighborhood Development . If you are interested in the "green" niche market this is something new on the horizon that caught our attention. It takes into account a number of "True Green" facets that those of us watching the growing interest in green-built homes and eco-friendly land use and design certainly are noting with great interest. So I have a couple of questions today. . . First question: From a marketing perspective, how many of the following LEED 50+ features would you/your clients be attracted to when looking … (7 comments)
asheville land: Dream Acreage and the Land Specialist - A True Story - 06/05/08 09:50 AM
They were, they admitted, "no spring-chicks"...I wondered...could they be the infamous Baby Boomers who are arriving here in the mountains? Were they looking for LAND to help keep them flexible and strong, or just to build on top of a mountain and look around? They told me they wanted to "grow things...organic vegetables...maybe plant some fruit trees in sunny spots"...and they wanted to continue to work the acreage. I said, " Are you sure you want to work that hard? Possibly you might want just to practice YOGA!"
They laughed in unison...They'd discovered yoga long ago...and had found out that … (10 comments)
