Mortgage Rates Surge to Highest Point of the Year
Mortgage rates shot up significantly for the second straight week.  Rates have now risen nearly 1% in a 15 day span.  This has brought an abrupt end to the refinance boom and has been devastating information to pass on to many potential home buyers.  Here is a brief overview of the main reasons rates pushed higher last week. 1.  An … (0 comments)

Good Morning. It is a beautiful day here at Georgia's Lake Country.  There is no better time to golf than on a day like today.  One of those golf communities here is Harbor Club.  The 18 hole golf course and people in this community are great.  This community offers a wide variety of waterfront, golf, and interior lots.  Harbor Club is one of the prettiest areas on the lake.  Here is a view from 1081 Wharfside Ct. in the Lake Villa section of Harbor Club.  If you would like to know more about this or other golf communities in the area just let … (0 comments)

Good Morning
It is a bit of a rainy day here is Georgia Lake Country but overall spring is in the air.  Prices have come down over the winter and buyers are again beginning to think about lake property.  There are some great deals to be found on both Lake Oconee & Lake Sinclair.  Today, however, I am going to point out some of the incentives for the Lake & Golf communities, Reynolds Plantation.
For Reynolds company homesite purchases:
One can purchase a homesite & membership for 5% down and no payments for 24 months.
Reynolds will pay the interest for the … (0 comments)

Good Morning
Here is a mortgage update from Jeff Hancock, Senior Loan Officer, Lake Oconee Community Bank.
5 Nuggets of Good NewsThe stock market staged its biggest rally of the year yesterday with the DOW up over 370 points!  Normally, a rally like this pulls investors out of the bond market and pushes mortgage rates higher.  But this did not happen yesterday as mortgage rates stayed flat.  This is an indication that new money came into the market, which is good news!
More good news to report as the Fed continues to purchase huge chunks of Mortgage-Backed Securities, which is … (0 comments)

Good Morning
The weather is finally cooling down and the leaves beginning to change here in Georgia's Lake Country.  The bad news is this spells the end this year for water activities such as tubing and skiing.  The good news is it provides excellent weather for Golf and Fishing.  Both bass and crappie are abundant and this is a great time of year to catch them. 
This might also be a great time of the year to catch a good deal on a lake property.  Most of the Seller's are anxious like in most parts of the country.  The difference here is … (0 comments)

reynolds: Georgia's Lake & Golf Country - 05/19/08 05:17 AM
Good Afternoon,
Georgia's Lake & Golf Country is once again beginning to shift into full swing with summer vacations beginning and Memorial Day approaching.  The Lake's (Oconee & Sinclair) themselves are beginning to warm up with temperatures in the low to mid 70's.  The golf courses are in great condition.  Most greens have healed from being punched (except The Oconee course) and are rolling smoothly. 
The past few months I have seen a lot of internet traffic for the Lake areas.  This month the internet traffic is beginning to level off and many of my inquiries are coming from local publications … (0 comments)

Lake Oconee & Lake Sinclair are holding their values despite the current market in the rest of the country.  The lastest statistics showed a 2% increase in average home sales price, approximately 95% list to sold price at a cost of 2 months longer on the market.  Of course their are a few exceptions and we run accross a destressed seller from time-to-time.  However, these are few and far between. 
On a brighter note spring is here and with it the demand for lake properties.  My website stats are double and in some cases triple the number of views per listing … (1 comments)

Property values here on Lake Oconee & Lake Sinclair continue to hold despite the market in general.  Price reductions have leveled off and the real estate community in general is beginning to become active again w Spring on the horizon.  This is due, I believe, to the resiliency of both lakes in regards to drought levels (both are completely full), the world renouned luxury golf communities, and the convenience from Atlanta, Athens, Augusta, and Macon.  For more information on Georgia's Lake Country feel free to contact me. 
Warmest Regards

I am happy to report that both Lake Oconee & Lake Sinclair are both completely full.  We have seen an increase in the amount of inquiries in the past month and my collegues and I fully expect this area to recover well ahead of the curve.  Last fall we went through our market corrections and listing prices across the board on both lakes dropped to market value.  Since the area continues to grow with the addition of new golf courses, Dell Webb, the commercial sector we expect that lake residents will begin to re-list at elevated price points.  With the recent interest … (0 comments)
