Hi, My name is Jodi Neal. I'm a broker with Keller Williams Mountain Partners in Hendersonville, NC. However, my area of focus is Lake Lure, Rutherford County, and Hendersonville, NC. I live in Lake Lure and absolutely love it. The Keller Williams office in Hendersonville opened only 4 years ago and we are growing at a rapid pace. I Came on board with Keller Williams in Aug of 06. I wanted to work for Keller Williams because of their culture and the family environment. We have some great agents and I couldn't be happier with my company. On a personal note. I raise and show Shetland Sheepdogs (shelties) and also Nigerian Dwarf Goats. The goats are a mini milk goat that produce the most wonderful milk. I make my own cheese, soaps, ice cream and of course drink this wonderful tasty milk.  I am a Christian and teach Sunday School, sing in the choir, and am on the cooking committee. I have 2 adult children, one son who lives in Tampa, FL with his wife and 2 children, Anthony and Vivienne. He is a Tampa fireman/paramedic and his wife teaches at Berkley Private School.  My daughter lives in Lake Lure, She and her husband own Cedar Creek Riding Stable. They have 2 childre, Phoebe and Quinn. My daughter is a nurse at Mission Hospital in Asheville, NC. My husband was in the Navy for 25 yrs and is now retired from the Navy. He now works for a dive company as a dive supervisior. I know, how does he do that living in the mountains??? Well, you would be surprized how many land locked areas need divers. But, at this date he work in Lousiana closing down oil rigs that were damaged by the hurricanes. I love BlueGrass music. We have several Music Barns around the area that have Mountain Music on either Friday or Saturday nights. Some are free, such as the Old Mountain Music in Old Fort, NC. On Friday nights (every Friday night rain or shine). It is such a hoot to see some of these people get up and clog or slow dance. Some of these people are not in good health but when the music starts, they get up and dance and have the time of their life.  If you have someone you know who is moving to Western NC, I hope you will remember me and let me help find that new home or property. It is my passion to serve and help others and it would be my greatest pleasure to help find that dream home.
