- 06/05/14 07:19 AM
One of the most popular pastime's in the summer, is playing in the water. It's cool, refreshing and brings out the kid in everyone. It boggles my mind why people flock to a man-made waterpark with hundreds of people sharing the same water in a confined space over what nature so generously provides. Here are my top 5 picks for playing in the water in North Georgia's Blue Ridge Mountains: #1 Morganton Point Overlooks beautiful clear 3,290-acre Lake Blue Ridge in the north Georgia mountains.

blue ridge mountains: Should I Buy a Vacation Home?
- 02/26/14 10:11 PM
Should I Buy a Vacation Home? A critical component to the overall answer is personal based on one's own financial landscape and goals. That aside, Where? and ask yourself "Why" ?? are you thinking about buying a vacation home. The obvious is for personal enjoyment more than likely. But perhaps the focus is more for investment purposes or a place for a permanent retirement haven in a few years, in which case can put you ahead of the game now. There are some tax benefits such as mortgage interest and property taxes which are deductible and help to offset the house

blue ridge mountains: North Georgia's Spring Tonic Harvested in Blue Ridge Mountains
- 02/24/14 09:54 PM
North Georgia's Spring Tonic Harvested in Blue Ridge Mountains I am a southern gal for sure and Georgia home grown but I admit, I do not recall ever hearing about “ramps” in reference to a vegetable. Ramps are spring onions, wild leeks, wood leeks and wild garlic. I do know about spring onions and leeks and even garlic (my personal favorite); just never heard them called ramps. In case you are not familiar with “ramps” either, they are the first green vegetable to emerge in the spring in the North Georgia Mountains. Do not look for these along the

blue ridge mountains: A Taste of Spring is in the Air in the Blue Ridge Mountains
- 02/22/14 12:37 AM
A taste of spring is in the air this weekend in the Blue Ridge Mountains. So pretty outside weatherwise, even though a little nippy this morning but blue skies and clear viewing across Lake Blue Ridge to the Blue Ridge Mountains beyond. The temp is sure to push 70 as the day warms. Plenty of sunshine to go around. A wonderful day to "unplug" for a little bit and take a walk with my two cocker spaniels and five (yes, five) cats! I am not the crazy old cat lady but sometimes, I wonder. I rescue cats and darn, if I

blue ridge mountains: Frosty Takes a Bite Out of Housing
- 02/20/14 10:57 PM
Snow 2014 - North Georgia Blue Ridge Mountains Frosty takes a bite out of housing! Maybe we won't be singing the winter time blues much longer! What a difference a week makes. In the North Georgia area, about this time last week, we were still dealing with snow and some ice. However, this week, temps were in the upper 60s, pushing 70 in places. What is not clear as yet, is how much of an impact the winter weather had on our local real estate market. But what is clear, is when the North Georgia Mountains are covered in snow,

blue ridge mountains: Top Off Your Log Cabin in the North Georgia Mountains
- 09/21/12 11:36 PM
In the North Georgia Blue Ridge area, we are known for beautiful log cabins. Many of our cabins have metal roofs and this type of roofing is preferred by most home buyers. When I had my cabin built, I opted for a metal roof and I think it was one of the best decisions I made during the contstruction process. You pay a little more, but in the long run, you get a durable roof lasting years beyond the traditional asphalt shingle type. There are many new styles and looks now too. From metal shingle/slate, tile, vertical panes to natural metals. More

blue ridge mountains: Purchasing a Cabin Retreat - To Rent or not to Rent?
- 04/06/12 04:03 AM
North Georgia, Blue Ridge Mountains, VacationProperties, Investors, Property Management As a Realtor®, I'm asked quite often by potential investors about buying a cabin and using it as a vacation rental property. Although, I am not in the business of rentals, I am in the business of selling cabins that have potential for vacation rental and can speak in broad terms as to what an investor should think about before making their purchase. My best advice is for an investor to consult with several local property management companies for indepth information regarding rates, policies, liability and input on what visitors are

blue ridge mountains: Competition is Killer - Tips for Home Sellers to Gain an Advantage
- 08/23/11 01:37 AM
Competition is killer when it comes to a private owner trying to sell a home in today’s market. The dynamics of most markets can be quite challenging, even for the most attractive home. It is, afterall, a buyer’s market. Between most Americans wanting or needing to cut back on spending and lots of homes to choose from, many buyers are demanding move-in ready homes, meaning no need for costly home improvement projects. With so much inventory currently on the market and shadow inventory to come, buyers are not having any trouble finding the home that they like without having to
