- 08/19/09 12:33 AM
In this post in the series we are going to cover the "tools of the trade." I am not talking about lock box keys and things we all have in common. But let's talk about things a mountain Realtor should have. 1 A compass. This is a really important gadget for a mountain Realtor. You are standing on a deck looking into the mountains with a buyer and they say. "What direction are we facing?" If you think you are going to look for the moss on the North side of the trees forget it Hawk Eye. That does not work. … (4 comments)

The mountains are really beautiful this year.There are some things you should do to take care of yourself while traveling in them 1 Always walk in pairs. You may think if you twist and ankle on a wooded hike you can use your cell phone for help. I am here to tell despite what you see on TV with the guy in the Crowd Or C Z Jones coming to your do or there are a lot of dead spots. 2 Always carry water and some power bars. Hikes up and down hills over tough terrain take longer than you think. … (2 comments)

It has been raining a lot in the South lately. But out of the mist and clouds there are some bright spots.

(It doesn't) Remember growing up and waiting for summer corn or Jersey Beef steak tomatoes, or cherries? This is all pre globalization. Well Mountain Laurel here bloom every year. But every second year they are better. This is the second year … (5 comments)
big canoe land: Remember the Movie? A Mountain Scene
- 05/20/09 08:12 AM
A very famous movie , Sgt York, with a very famous actor Gary Cooper is a classic. For those of you who remember the movie The whole trouble York got into was over a piece of bottom land. In the mountains bottom land used to be the most valuable. Why? because it was flat less rocky and you could farm it. Look at the photo below. Pickens County is where this scene was shot. Take a look at the lush green and growing grass. This is bottom land. It is surrounded by mountains. Look how dense the grass is. Just as … (4 comments)
big canoe land: Now is a great time to buy land
- 05/14/09 01:30 PM
Land sales right now are terrible where I am. 3 years ago for every home I sold I sold 4 pieces of land. Today the ratio has turned the other way. Why? First there is the financing. Lenders do not want to lend on land. It is easy to walk away from. So they want more money down and often rates are up to a point higher. Second in so many cases it is less expensive to buy an existing home than to build. So construction loans again want more down and are interest rated higher. So why is it a … (2 comments)

big canoe land: Give me Land.....
- 04/02/09 12:41 AM

The reasons for this is are clear. 1 Investors have become skittish or in fact were over extended and have been forced to pull back 2 Land loans are not as easy as they once were 3 People are not buying as much to build as the inventory of existing homes is high, and priced well. 4 Construction loans are harder to get than conventional loans Given all of the above if you are looking for great land deals, Now is the time to buy. We see great tracts consistently under 15,000 an … (0 comments)
