THIS MONTH'S TOPIC:

The Doctor Will See You Now!

 

In a recent issue of LAND RUSH we offered six logical steps that can lead to a land purchase. To refresh your memory, they were:

Step #1 - Become Informed!
Step #2 - Analyze Your Objectives
Step #3 - Make A Commitment To Yourself
Step #4 - Come To The Mountains
Step #5 - Make An Appointment In Advance
Step #6 - Bring Your Checkbook

Last month, I covered Step #4. In this issue, I’ll elaborate on the 5th - “Make An Appointment in Advance”

OK – so you’ve gone through the first four steps: 1) you’ve learned all you can and become informed, 2) you’ve analyzed your objectives and know what you want, 3) you’ve made a firm commitment to yourself that you are, in fact, ready to make a purchase, and 4) you’re ready to make a trip to the mountains.

Now - it’s time to call for an appointment. No, we’re not doctors or dentists , however we do work by appointment only. Our reasoning? We want to devote as much time as necessary to helping you find the right property. It could be hours, days, or even weeks. We want the time spent with you to be uninterrupted, so we can focus on YOU alone during our time together.

Many of our properties are in diverse locations, some located as much as an hour’s drive from the others. That means we must plan our time together so you are able to visit as many properties as you wish without wasting your time. Again, that takes planning – and you can be a big help.

Please give some thought before calling as to what your objectives will be during your trip. Be prepared to discuss preferred locations, a desired price range, and the amenities and features you hope to find. Then, during your call, I can get a better idea how to line up the right properties for your visit.

If we will be looking at more than one property, it’s best to get an early start. Eight or nine in the morning is best. Most summertime rains come in the afternoon, so an early start will allow us to get a jump on any weather changes. It’s also wise to bring rain gear – just in case.

While planning your visit, give serious thought to appropriate dress for the occasion. Jeans and hiking boots are best. Shorts, flip-flops, and penny loafers (sans socks) are greatly discouraged at this time of year. Wildflowers and weeds can be knee-high, even on established trails. Your comfort is important to the successful outcome of your visit, so dress accordingly.

OK – so there you have it! It’s time for you to give me a call. I’ll be waiting – and will look forward to working with you!

Oh, there’s one more thing. Before you come, take time to download our buyer’s guide – “Carolina Dreaming” - from our website. It’s short, easy to read, and will provide you with the basic information needed to make your trip a roaring success. For your free copy, go to:
