Sugarloaf Country Club - The Flood of 2009

Mon, 21 Sep 2009 17:02:25 -0500

Well, last year we were experiencing a drought and the lakes were down over 20 feet. Yes, weather patterns and real estate markets go in cycles. Today, we are having one of the most severe rains and flooding we have seen in decades. Check out this picture of the 11th green on the TPC at Sugarloaf golf course. It may be a little hard to see... but that is the flag still standing as the entire green is underwater. An yes, there were a few golfers chipping balls trying to see who could get closest to the flag!

This is the "bird's eye view" of the 11th hole before it was flooded.

The good news is that this is the type of thing that makes you happy to be part of the TPC network. Our club is always excellent at repairing the course and getting it back into top condition. Other courses will be assessing their members to deal with these types of things.

Right now, I am looking outside at the kids having a ball playing in the rain. They are sliding through puddles, jumping on the trampoline and having a fabulous day - just being a kid. These are the days they will remember for years to come!

The sun will come back out and it will be a great time to buy real estate in Sugarloaf Country Club.

Sugarloaf Country Club Resident Stewart Cink Wins British Open!

Mon, 27 Jul 2009 12:14:30 -0500

Congratulations to Sugarloaf Country Club resident Stewart Cink for winning the 138th British Open. It was one of the most exciting finishes in Open history as Cink won a 4-hole playoff against veteran Tom Watson. Watson has won 5 British Open titles previously and is one of the most successful golfers in history. At age 59, Watson mounted an incredble run but came up one stroke short of voctory with a bogey on the 18th hole. Stewart made a rare birdie on the 18th in regulation to post a 2 under par score. In the playoff, Stewart was 2 under par while Watson blew to a triple of the 17th hole which was the 3rd playoff hole.

Stewart was obviously excited but a humble and classy winner as he acknowledged the venerable Watson in his comments after the round. Watson was quite the gentleman. He allowed Stewart to have his moment in the sun when he could have easily taken center stage. The announcers commented several times about the contrasting styles of Watson versus Tiger Woods who showed his frustration by slamming clubs and cursing around the course. Tiger missed the cut. That is only the second time ever in a major.

Back in Sugarloaf Country Club, our neighbors are so happy for Stewart, Lisa and the boys. Banners are visible at each entrance and the club house. Stewart is a wonderful human being and a great ambassador for how the sport of golf should be represented. We look forward to his continued success.

This news will have a positive imnpact for Sugarloaf Country Club real estate. To see the latest market facts, please view the Sugarloaf Country Club real estate report or contact me directly.

Sugarloaf Country Club - Residents Excel In Sports!

Sun, 19 Jul 2009 09:28:34 -0500

Residents of Sugarloaf Country Club have experienced some very exciting days lately. No, I am not talking about Michael Vick or the Mansion Madame. Both of these homes are being handled by the bankruptcy courts now. I am talking about tennis, baseball and golf!

Sugarloaf resident Jordan Cox recently made it to the Junior Finals at Wimbeldon. What an incredible experience! His parents (Richard and Julie Cox) were there to cheer him on. His brother (Brad) is his coach and great mentor. We are all very proud of Jordan.

Seems like everyone wrote Andruw Jones off as a professional baseball player. He was traded from the Braves to the Dodgers. They released him and he was picked up by the Texas Rangers. Andruw is primarily used as a designated hitter. On July 9th, he hit 3 home runs against the LA Angels - one of the best teams in baseball. Imagine that - not one, not two, but three home runs in one game! Congratulations to Andruw, Nicole and young Druw. Actually, this is not the first time Andruw has hit 3 homers in one game. He also did it in September 2007 against Philly.

And finally, Stewart Cink just won the British Open! What an incredible accomplishment. As golfers hit their approach shot to the green on the beautiful par 5 (Stables #6), they can look to the left at the Cink's house and congratulate him. Congratulations to Stewart, Lisa and the boys. We wish them a safe trip back across the pond.

Congratulations to our Sugarloaf Country Club neighbors.

Sugarloaf Country Club Real Estate Report

Sat, 16 Aug 2008 17:53:04 -0500

This is the latest report that I wrote for the Sugarloaf Women's Club Newsletter. It contains the latest facts and overview for Sugarloaf Country Club real estate.

The housing market in Sugarloaf has experienced significant changes during the first half of 2008. Since most news headlines focus on the national market, estimating local home values can be confusing for both sellers and buyers. For a detailed perspective on the National market as well the Metro Atlanta market, please view AtlantaRealEstate2008.com. This video report features our very own neighbor, Dan Forsman (President & CEO, Prudential Georgia), David Cook (President, Equity Depot - publisher of the Atlanta Foreclosure Report) and David Ellis (EVP, Greater Atlanta Homebuilders Association).

Real estate conditions and trends vary by market. Here are the facts for Sugarloaf Country Club:

2008 Sugarloaf Country Club Real Estate Facts

• 36 properties have sold in 2008. This compares to 43 sold in 2007 and 51 sold in 2006 YTD.

• 7 were new homes, 16 were standard resales, 8 were bank-owned and 5 were company-owned.

• 140 properties are currently for sale in Sugarloaf. In 2006, there was an average of 68 for sale. In 2007, the average for sale was 85.

• In 2008, 18 foreclosures have been scheduled for auction or have become bank-owned. 13 are currently active.

Sugarloaf Country Club Home Values

• Nationally, home values are down around 15%. Metro Atlanta home values are down around 8%. Sugarloaf home values have not been immune to declines. In June, the original list price to sales price ratio was 86%. Buyers are looking for great deals and finding them.

Trends That Affect Sugarloaf Country Club Home Values

• Sugarloaf has supply that exceeds the current levels of demand. Serious sellers are getting very aggressive on pricing and incentives to stand out from the competition. This is especially true for bank-owned and company-owned properties as they try to shed real estate assets.

• Many potential buyers have existing properties that they cannot sell. Some cannot qualify for mortgages today versus the relaxed rules of the past. Others are frozen by negative headlines.

So What Does This Mean?

Sugarloaf is a fantastic community and the long-term trends are bright. Right now, our real estate values are feeling the combined effects of the national real estate market, high gas prices and other economic factors, the banking and mortgage crisis, and the natural life cycle of a developing community. Despite these short-term obstacles, the SCC community has many positive and promising attributes. Our TPC golf course is world class - not to mention the professionals who run top-notch programs. Our public and private schools provide excellent academic, sports, and extracurricular programs for students at every level. Our quick access to I-85 is an advantage compared to other luxury communities that are land-locked from major traffic routes. The Gwinnett Center, the Gwinnett Arena, and now the Gwinnett Braves provide many cultural and entertainment opportunities. Retail choices continue to grow and expand. Sugarloaf Country Club offers resort living at its finest. Our strong community will stand the test of time and is poised to thrive in the future.

Sugarloaf Country Club Real Estate - Foreclosures

Sun, 27 Jul 2008 08:16:27 -0500

The headlines are everywhere for foreclosures. The largest numbers are in the lower end of the market but we see foreclosures in all prices and in virtually all forms of mortgages. In Sugarloaf Country Club, there have been around 20 properties that have gone thru the foreclosure process in 2008. Is that an unusually high number of homes? Actually not. All luxury communities are seeing this trend.

Realty Trac recently published a report that said:

"Until now, the foreclosure crisis was confined to a narrow niche of middle-class urban communities and outer-rim new housing developments where first-time homeowners and real estate speculators benefited briefly from favorable financing. But increasingly there are signs that the foreclosure problem is spilling over into wealthier areas, where prime borrowers - and even high-end real estate developers - are rapidly falling behind on their construction loans, mortgage payments, property taxes, auto loans and credit cards at an alarmingly fast pace, according to industry analysts, economists and real estate brokers."

Are foreclosures good buying opportunities? The answer depends upon the circumstances and the property. In general, buying properties prior to the auction or at the courthouse is very risky. We see the best opportunities in the form of bank-owned and company-owned properties. The banks are getting much more aggressive in pricing their properties. They do not want to continue to grow their non-performing assets. The liens on the property have been wiped out after auction. Buyers have an opportunity to make offers and perform an inspection so you have all the facts. Company-owned properties are also great options. Sugarloaf Country Club is loaded with corporate executives that get buy-outs when they move. These companies do not want to keep these properties and are also increasingly aggressive in pricing them. These properties are usually in great shape.

Legends Of Golf Coming To Sugarloaf Country Club!

What does this mean for Sugarloaf Country Club Real Estate?

Contact Mary Floyd To Learn The Latest News PLUS insight into what this means for Sugarloaf.

Article by Stan Awtrey
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution
Published on: 06/10/08

For Atlanta golf fans, it's out with the old and in with the older.

Because of an inability to find a sponsor in this challenging economy, the city Monday lost the AT&T Classic, a fixture on the PGA Tour since 1967. However, it will get a replacement -- a Champions Tour event that will be played at TPC Sugarloaf in 2009.

The PGA Tour said it is completing the final details with a "U.S.-based global company" to host the age 50-plus event.

Dave Kaplan, the AT&T Classic's tournament director, said the Atlanta Classic Foundation will meet Thursday to consider hosting the senior event.

"I wouldn't think there would be any reason not to, but that decision is way above my pay grade," Kaplan said.

It costs a title sponsor from $7 million to $8 million to obtain a PGA Tour event. Sponsorship of a Champions Tour event is $2 million to $3 million.

The main concern is the flow of charitable contributions to Children's Healthcare of Atlanta, the primary beneficiary of the AT&T Classic. The tournament has raised more than $18 million for several charities.

PGA Tour player Stewart Cink, who lives at TPC Sugarloaf, learned about the AT&T's demise Monday shortly after he landed in San Diego for this week's U.S. Open.

"It's disappointing for a lot of reasons," Cink said. "I think Sugarloaf benefited from having a PGA Tour event, and it's disappointing for me because I had some good finishes there. But most of all, it's disappointing for Children's Healthcare of Atlanta, which will have to come up with a different way to raise the money they need."

That void in charitable donations would theoretically be filled by the Champions Tour event, as well as a financial commitment from AT&T through 2010.

Scott Hodoval, the vice president for development of the Children's Healthcare of Atlanta Foundation, said the tournament brought about $500,000 annually.

"We have done a lot of things with the money," he said, mentioning expanding medical facilities as an example.

No date has been set for the Champions Tour event, but the current senior schedule has an unfilled week in early May and two other open dates in early June. Atlanta hasn't hosted a Champions Tour event since the Nationwide Championship went belly-up in 2000.

The instability with the AT&T Classic began in the spring of 2007, when AT&T joined forces with Tiger Woods to create the AT&T National in Washington. Ironically, the tournament replaced The International, which folded because of the inability to get Woods -- along with his TV ratings and general interest -- in its field.

The new tournament gave AT&T three PGA Tour events, so officials decided the Atlanta event was expendable. In December, AT&T invoked an escape clause, making the 2008 tournament its last.

PGA Tour commissioner Tim Finchem said at a news conference in San Diego in February and again during The Players Championship in May that he was confident a sponsor would be found for the two tournaments that needed one: Atlanta and Tampa. Transitions Optical, a Florida-based eyewear and lens company, recently signed a four-year contract to host the Tampa event. Atlanta was not as fortunate.

"We were never given a date [to complete a deal], but we knew it would be sometime not too long after our tournament," Kaplan said. "Tampa found a sponsor, and the Tour had to go on and fill our slot."

The tour hasn't announced the 2009 schedule.

The AT&T Classic began in 1967 as the Atlanta Classic and was held at Atlanta Country Club. Georgia-Pacific signed on as the title sponsor in 1982, and BellSouth took over in 1989. AT&T became the title sponsor in 2007 after it bought out BellSouth.

Kaplan said the Classic Foundation approached 150 businesses about sponsorships but found no takers among international, regional or state-based companies.

In a prepared announcement, Finchem said, "We regret having to notify the Atlanta Classic Foundation of this decision, but the absence of a title sponsor at this point has necessitated the move in order to solidify the schedule for the future."

Most companies, such as Columbus-based Aflac, Inc., said the tournament was too expensive. Al Johnson, Aflac's vice president of marketing services, said his company had considered sponsoring the tournament but said Aflac prefers events that are held in multiple locations, rather than something that is tied to one city or region.

Several Atlanta-based companies are already partnered with sporting events in the area. Coca-Cola sponsors the PGA's Tour Championship, Chick-fil-A is tied to the SEC's championship football game, and UPS and Home Depot are affiliated with NASCAR.

"We just ran out of time," Kaplan said. "Given the economic climate, it was difficult. I believe we would have found a new sponsor if the economy had been better."

About Lake Hartwell

Lake Hartwell is one of the southeast's largest and most popular public recreation lakes. Built by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers between 1955 and 1963 as part of a flood control, hydropower, and navigation project, authorized purposes now include recreation, water quality, water supply, and fish and wildlife management.

Lake Hartwell is a man-made lake bordering Georgia and South Carolina on the Savannah, Tugaloo, and Seneca Rivers. The lake is created by Hartwell Dam located on the Savannah River seven miles below the point at which the Tugaloo and Seneca Rivers join to form the Savannah River. Extending 49 miles up the Tugaloo and 45 miles up the Seneca at normal pool elevation, Hartwell Lake comprises nearly 56,000 acres of water with a shoreline of 962 miles. Hartwell is the deepest of these sister lakes with an average depth of 45.6 feet and a deth of 185 feet in the deepest channels. This is an important factor when considering the impact of potential drought conditions. The entire Hartwell "Project" contains 76,450 acres of land and water. Interstate 85 bisects Lake Hartwell and makes the area easily accessible to visitors. Hartwell Lake and Dam is the second Corps of Engineers project to be built in the Savannah River Basin. The first, J. Strom Thurmond Lake and Dam, was completed in 1952. A third project, Richard B. Russell Lake and Dam was completed in 1985. Congress authorized Hartwell in 1950 and construction began in October 1955. The project was completed in 1963 at a cost of more than $89 million. Hartwell Dam is constructed of concrete and earth and spans some 18,000 feet (over 3 miles), crossing the Savannah River. The concrete section is 1,900 feet long and rises 204' above the riverbed at its highest point. Earthen embankments and dikes lengthen the dam at both ends. The spillway contains 12 large gates, each 40 feet by 35.5 feet high, for the quick release of water from the lake.
