Looking for an affordable log home in Gatlinburg?  Well, the market downturn and remarkably low financing rates are making Gatlinburg log home ownership a reality for many!  In fact, the inventory of affordable log homes in Gatlinburg, priced under $150K is shrinking in the current market for the first time in three years.  There are some beautiful cabins available, and there just couldn't be a better time-- remember the winter and early Spring months give buyrs a great advantage when looking at cabins.   Most are available during the week and the knowledgeable agents on our Team can get you … (0 comments)

gatlinburg real estate: It's That time of the Year! - 10/20/11 11:56 PM
I love this time of the year in the Smokies-- while some people look at fall as the end of something, lots of us here see it as a beginning.  This is the time when our Mountains sparkle and shine with brilliant color and the towns are full of visitors, sharing the beauty with us.  There's just an energy that permeates the area that is palpable.  After a long (hot) and busy summer, it's renewing to pull off the road and just enjoy the views.  I was showing property to a client last week who was looking for Gatlinburg real estate  … (3 comments)

gatlinburg real estate: List to Sale Ratio in the Smokies Remains Constant - 09/13/11 12:48 AM
Reviewing Gatlinburg Real Estate for sale, statistically the relationship between the price that a home is listed at (at the time of sale) and the price it sells for has remained stable throughout the last 12 months-- at 92.8%.  This means that home sales that have closed in this time period close for a sales price that is, on average, 92.8% of the asking price.  Looking behind this a bit, on many homes that have sold, you can find the progression of asking price drops until a home is truly in the market.  One this "sweet spot" has been reached, the … (1 comments)

gatlinburg real estate: Gatlinburg Real Estate and My Garden - 08/19/11 01:22 AM
One of the joys of living here after so many monochromatic years in Florida is the change of seasons.  I always think I will have a huge garden full of zinnias and peonies just like my grandmother.  But it seems like every spring just as I am getting ready to plant, the real estate business picks up and I am too busy to think about my flowers.
The last couple of years I have had to settle for some "spot gardens" -- just little places that I can add some color to that don't take too much attention.  I was out … (8 comments)

gatlinburg real estate: Gatlinburg TN Real Estate Market Trends- Letters of Pre-Approval (and why we are still..again..even more.. asking for it!) - 07/28/11 01:25 AM
The agents on our Team at www.JaneTerrell.com are heads-down working selling Gatlinburg real estate all day every day, so we are in a position to pick up changes in the market rather quickly.  One is happening with regard to lender pre-approval letters.  We have been strongly recommending to buyers that they take the time to obtain their letter of pre-approval or proof of funds from their lender prior to coming into town to look for properties for some time.  This was because any foreclosure or short sale property would require this document before looking at an offer. Good foreclosure deals in this … (1 comments)

gatlinburg real estate: Gatlinburg TN Real Estate Update-- A Quick Review - 07/23/11 02:51 AM
Those of you familiar with the Gatlinburg real estate market know that this is a unique pocket in today's world, and it is more positive than lots of other areas.  Century 21 contracts with an independent organization to provide statistical reports for our market.  This month's report (dated July 18) shows that in July the Days on Market (DOM) for Gatlinburg homes for sale dropped from 300 in May to 193 in July, indicating a postive demand for inventory.  Of course this is somewhat of a seasonal market, but this number has been stagnant for months, so seeing a change is significant.

gatlinburg real estate: One for the Record Books - 05/31/11 08:39 AM
Well, I can no longer use one of my favorite selling points-- when people ask me to be sure that the properties they look at have a basement, so they can hunker down during the tornadoes, up to this point I have been able to say that "A tornado has never touched down in Sevier County"... and I was right!  But on April 27th just a little one (70 mph, 40 ft. wide) made a brief stop in Seymour, breaking the record that had stood since the beginning of recording of such things. 
The thing is, with mountain property, "grade level" … (2 comments)

gatlinburg real estate: Buying a Home for Sale in Gatlinburg or Pigeon Forge: It's a Whole New Game - 01/15/11 02:58 AM
I've had the opportunity to be working with the TOP agents from all different companies and area of the country this week, and everyone seems to be noticing the same thing:  a substantial uptick in serious interest in all kinds of real estate.  This has certianly been the experience of The Terrell Team with people looking for Gatlinburg homes for sale or Pigeon Forge homes for sale.
That's exciting news, but it also comes with a bit of a twist.  At the time when interest is reviving, the banking industry still remains in some turmoil, at least from the perspective of … (2 comments)

gatlinburg real estate: Why It's a Good Time to Buy a Cabin in the Smokies - 12/07/10 12:00 AM
This time of year is always a good one for those who are sitting on the fence thinking about making a vacation home, retirement home or income property in Gatlinburg or the surrounding areas.  While some of the reasons are obvious (like incredibly low interest rates) others you may not think of... like this is the end of the rental season, and owners are looking at lower income for the next few months.  For any that really really want to sell, this adds a little extra incentive!  Also, properties are MUCH easier to get into and look at (especially during the … (3 comments)
