MONTH'S TOPIC:
"Planning
a vacation? Think North Carolina Mountains!"
Tired of seeing gas prices
rise practically every day? Aren’t we all? If
it’s putting a crimp in your vacation plans, you may want
to reconsider what you call a vacation.
Does vacation mean travel
each year to a strange faraway place. Does it mean packing
up the family, luggage and the dog to drive across 5 states for
two weeks – coming back home exhausted? If so, consider
breaking up your vacation into a half-dozen long-weekends throughout
the year – within easy driving distance of home.
If you live in North Carolina,
there are few areas that are not within about 2-3 hours driving
distance of the mountains. Compare driving across five
states at 300 miles per state and back home. The fuel alone
could cost you over $500. If you live three hours from the mountains,
it would be closer to $75 round-trip. That adds up to a
little over six relaxing weekend trips a year – more beneficial
to your family than the exhausting two weeks in Texas.
So, what’s the real
message here? Just this: even with high fuel prices, the
North Carolina mountains offers cool mornings, day hikes on the
Appalachian Trail, tubing & kayaking the New River, roaming
the Blue Ridge Parkway - and best of all, a slower pace that
leaves you refreshed instead of bushed.
Now, if this idea sounds
inviting, consider creating a plan that will provide years of
enjoyment. There are two options: buy land for a weekend
or family retreat or make a permanent move to the mountains as
I did 18 years ago. Depending on your source of income,
the weekend retreat may be your beginning point.
Either way, however, the
first step in your plan is to determine whether you will buy
a large tract of land for peace, privacy, and seclusion (usually
50-100+ acres) or a 2-acre parcel in a subdivision, with neighbors
and convenient to shopping and restaurants. If the first
step sounds inviting, you should Email or call us now to begin
exploring the possibilities. Buying a large land tract
is not a snap decision – it’s more of a process. It
begins by getting acquainted with you and your objectives, followed
up by exploring available properties to get a feel for large
tract living. This can take months, thus it’s important
to begin now.
Because we specialize in
large parcels only, we understand this process, and know that
it’s important to you not to be pressured into
buying the first land you see. That’s why it’s
essential to get acquainted first, to share information, to become
informed about land ownership, and only then begin to identify
suitable parcels. It can be quite an adventure, and lots
fun for your family.
Once you find your perfect
spot here in the mountains, you’ll begin coming more often,
and finally – plan the home or cabin of your dreams. It’s
at that point that you will become aware of whether a weekend
retreat will do – or a permanent home should be the final
result.
Start exploring the possibilities
now. Ask us for a FREE copy of “Carolina Dreaming” our
land buyers’ manual. It’s an easy read, and
you’ll learn everything I would tell you in person if we
spent the day together looking at land. We’ll leave
the light on for you!
