Vegas Bob & Tammy Lankford - Ringing & Singing in the Rain ;o)

 

Robert Swetz aka "Vegas Bob" has known Tammy Lankford for so many years at the ActiveRain network, it seems like forever.

Tammy and I have gone back and forth with comments, emails, but never a phone call.

Tammy has emailed me information on properties on Lake Sinclair many times, but I never knew until we spoke just how large Lake Sinclair is.

Just before I called Tammy, I Googled a map of Lake Sinclair and some information on Tammy's profile page at the ActiveRain network, so I was covered by questions that I might ask her.

 

For 25 years now I have purchased Lake & river properties for investment so I knew what questions to ask Tammy.

Questions like ...

 

 

1. Distance of setbacks from the lake for building a home?

2. How large a vacant lot needs to be for a septic system?

3. How much taxes are around Lake Sinclair?

4. Approx how many homes are located with lake frontage?

5. The size of Lake Sinclair? ... Etc.

 

Lake Sinclair

 

I really wasn't testing Tammy with my questions because I know how much she knows about Lake Sinclair, by reading her posts and blogs within the ActiveRain network.

Tammy is a "Owner, Broker and True Professional" of Lane Realty in Eatonton Georgia ...

 

And if I was to purchase a vacant lake lot or lake home around Lake Sinclair, Tammy would be my Realtor of choice ;o)

 

Tammy Lankford

 

Thanks for the conversation Tammy ... it really was a pleasure

I enjoyed our chat.  And hopefully I knew all the right answers.  I didn't remember exactly  how many homes we have on the lake.. and of course with building happening again recently that number is slowly climbing, but here's the last count I did.

I like your list of questions - that's a great list to have on hand.  I too have enjoyed getting to know Tammy Lankford via AR and am looking forward to gleaning more from her in 2015!

Glad you and Tammy found some time to dance and sing in the rain.  Tammy does know her stuff and you are in good hands if you decide to purchase something.

Why do I get the feeling that we'll be seeing VB on the East Coast, buying a lovely Lake Sinclair property with the help of Tammy Lankford?

I'll hopefully get the chance to chat with Tammy this week, we've been playing a bit of phonetag.

Hello Tammy and you answered all my questions wonderfully, and didn't miss a beat. I hope you didn't feel as if I had under interrogation.

And once again, thank you and I learned more from taking with you about Lake Sinclair then I have over the years with reading your posts am emails ;o)

Hello Joy ... thanks for stopping by and there are some other questions when purchasing vacant land that I didn't ask Tammy.

1.  Is there power on the property and if not, how far away is it?

2.  Does the lot or land have a deeded road or easement?

3.  Is there a well on the property? Public water? Sewer?

Hello Debbie and our phone conversation came about because of you "Ringing & Singing in the Rain Challenge" ;o)

But VB is sorry Debbie because Tammy Lankford is the lady of the hour ;o) ... Just kidding, but she is and thanks for stopping by, and my friend Michael Thornton said that you where a person that people should meet also ...

And Vegas Bob would like go meet Tammy some day in the future, maybe VB will have to fly to Lake Sinclair and have Tammy show me some properties ;o)

Bob, sounds like Tammy has been quite busy on the phone, as have seen a few Rainers have called.   She seems like a sweet lady and very knowledgeable with her area.

Robert (Vegas Bob) Swetz ~ I am glad you included the overhead views of the the lake. It certainly has shoreline galore! The ringing and singing challenge sounds like it has really been successful.
