One of the hardest things to do when managing your personal finances is recognizing when a down market is an opportunity. This is often referred to as the contrarian approach to investments. Today it is cheaper to buy already constructed homes than to buy new or partially build homes...or to build your home yourself. I often tell my clients that you can purchase a home in the north Georgia mountains for about 20% less than you could in 2006-7, or you can build for about 150% compared with the same period.... so financially it makes NO sense to buy land and build in today's market unless you need a very specific structure or just cannot buy a "used" home.
All this being said brings me to my topic today.... golden opportunities in North Georgia. Land, lots, tracts, parcels, acreage .... all real estate entities that are extremely out of favor by the buying public today. The market for land is so depressed today that it now makes sense to buy and hold for better times...really! Let me give you some examples:
227 Stirratt Rd in Talking Rock Creek Resort Listed now for $6000 (OBO)... down from $25,000
Or
1118 Bethel Ct is also in Talking Rock Creek and is now listed for $4200 ...down from $40,000 OBO!!!!
And also theis Big Canoe Gems!
6388 Valley view is LISTED for $4200 but the owner will take the BEST OFFER!!!
Why are these prices so low...I think the lowest in America for land that is not in a swamp BUT is totally build-able!?? The owners are investors that had, at one time, hope to build on their property but times changed. Their bad (and I really mean BAD!) fortune can be your really good luck!
