Let's Talk...
Lifestyles and Stories
My Story: Real Estate runs in my blood. Back in the day, between rounds of golf, Dad built a successful real estate brokerage based on positive relationships in the community and with his clients. With my family's guidance I learned that whether in golf, real estate, or in day-to-day life, "paying attention" is all-important. Here is how that lesson looks online, a hand-crafted survey for you to tell me a chapter or two of your story.
With family roots in the mountains and valleys around Asheville, North Carolina going back a couple of hundred years, the National Association of REALTORS® reminder that "...under it all lies the land...." has special meaning for me, as it did for my Dad. "There is only so much Land, " he said, I hope your grandchildren can experience it as we do today."
Enduring excellence is a big factor in "Homes on the Green" lifestyles and real estate.
My career path as schoolteacher, career coach, corporate marketing consultant, and publisher and author curved gracefully back to the mountains and a family real estate business where sustainable innovation rules, and where golfers can give it their best shot to find "Homes on the Green." Not long after coming home to Asheville in 2000, I launched Asheville Greenolina's Real Estate Consulting Firm.
Over the years, it's been a privilege to come to be valued and respected by clients and the real estate community, especially for a particular expertise in properties that demonstrate innovation in Quality of Lifestyle and Life-Healthy-Built Homes®, beautiful golf course properties and communities, second and vacation properties, and land legacies.

Asheville Real Estate - The Lifestyle, The Links, Land, The Luxury
Raised where nature has a say, in part on golf courses, I appreciate the beauty of the game of golf and the environment in which it is played. Having taken Audubon's Green GolferTM Pledge,I also appreciate the emerging focus on sustainable golf facilities- sited, designed, constructed and managed in ways that enhance the Greater Asheville community. These courses, and their attending "homes on the green" can help to reduce or eliminate the impact on Asheville's amazing natural resources. This I say not only as an eco-friendly real estate professional, but as an avid putter! Golf and real estate run in my blood." ~ janeAnne@janeAnne.com
Kind Words, Media Interviews & Local Links You'll Enjoy
KIND WORDS ::
~ "I am in the middle of my second transaction with janeAnne as my Broker. Without qualification, I will say she is the best REALTOR® I've ever worked with as well as one of the most intuitive people I've ever encountered.
In late 2004, after an email exchange, janeAnne pretty much "knew" what I was looking for, assured me we'd find it, initiated and directed the search, which we did over several days, and then helped me identify, negotiate for a piece of land in a community which is perfect.
Now, two years later, I am about to close on yet another property she told me long ago I would be looking for! She's honest, diligent, smart, patient, funny, knowledgeable, and pleasant to drive around with in a car. I highly recommend janeAnne Broker-in-Charge at The ECO-Steward Real Estate Firm. " ~ Don Silver
~ “Thanks for alwaysremembering us….” P.R.
~ "Thank you for all you are doing...this seems like an unending marathon with no finish line discernible!!!! You are the only bright spot on the horizon:) " S.S.
~ "You're the best! ... Thank you for the extra time you have spent to make us feel comfortable during our planning period. If you go this far out of your way to help us in the planning phase of our move, what must your service be like once we are actively engaged in the move itself...." A.S.
