When people come to our community of Big Canoe (a private gated community of over 8,000 acres in the North Georgia Mountains), they ask what activities take place that they can be involved with.  The answer can be as simple as, you can be active 7 days a week, or you can be a hermit.  Something i...

Several things have happened to me over the past few weeks that make me question when people should make the decision to downsize.  For years we asked my mother-in-law to move in with us because of her failing health, but she refused.  Her independence meant so much to her, although no close rela...

I have been looking over the statistics of the homes sold this year in the community of Big Canoe, and find a large proportion of homes in the $300K range.  Is this the average range for today's buyers?  It could be in our community.  Many buyers, knowing the real estate market, are searching for...

It is hard to believe this is the middle of October and the fall colors have not taken over all the trees.  This is always an excellent time of year for prospective "buyers" to drive up to the North Georgia mountains to gaze at all the brilliant foliage and purchase apples.  I'll just keep lookin...

Last night, cold weather came to the community of Big Canoe in Georgia.  It is 45 degrees and I have carefully selected what to wear today.  Why, because I have clients coming up to look at houses.  Amazing how weather will NOT deter people who are serious in their journey to find just the right ...

When clients come to you to look for a home, do you take time to LISTEN and HEAR what they are looking for, or are you showing them what you want them to see?  I know of some agents who already have a "list in their minds" of what they want to sell them.  Sometimes this works for them, but I can ...
