There is Gold in Them There Hills

There is GOLD in them there mountains. Yes that is what I said. I have been able to assist buyers in making awesome investments in homes, view lots, creek lots, lake homes and golf course homes. The deals my clients have made are unbelievable. They are picking up equity with their purchases; which means they have made money as soon as they closed on their property. We have a lake house valued at 1.2 million that was recently put under contract for 650,000. Another lake home that is 4,500 + - hundred square feet that will be closing soon for 280,000. This home could not be built for the selling price let alone have a lake lot and dock thrown in. With my local knowledge and personal relationship with builders, developers, and bankers I am able to assist buyers with the opportunity of a lifetime. I have been extremely busy during a slow economy as I have kept working and on top of a falling market; that has allowed me to find the deals of the century for my buyers. This won’t last forever so don’t procrastinate and miss out. As someone that has been selling in a depressed real estate market I get calls and heads up each and every day on absolute steals. Contact me for my personal knowledge and let me help you with your steal. As a local newspaper said; come see the original Good Ole Boy that has his act together. Buyers this is your time, your investment dollars are spreading long and thick. My contact info is, phone number 828-837-3002 office, cell is 828-361-4710, and my email is dex@dexhubbard.com and my website is www.dexhubbard.com and our office website is www.cometothemountains.com. If you are able to invest don’t be hesitate in regards to ASKING PRICES as they are definitely not cut in stone as I was showing a house yesterday and the identical house behind the house I was showing was listed for 15,000.00 more but through the builder I was told they would take less than the one I was showing. Man! There is GOLD IN THEM THERE HILLS. Dexs Hubbard Sr. Remix Broker

Our area is a recreational Mecca. We have been classified, as Atlanta's playground. Our Mountain Lakes, sprawling scenic mountains, creeks and rivers, moderate winters, cool summers have been a drawing factor for tens of thousands of retirement aged people for years. The boom in the real estate market along with the Federal Banking Regulations allowing credit to be given to individuals that could not afford their debts has created an investors paradise. There is one great investment after the other locally in my area.

There was good news in the Housing Market/Real Estate Market this week. National averages were up in all categories. Housing starts were up as 583,000 units were under construction and permits also rose as 547,000 permits were issued, up the first time in 6 months. New home sales rose 4.7% and existing home sales rose 5.1%. Single-family home sales rose 11%, which is the largest increase since February of 1991. This is a strong start to recovery of our real estate market and a prelude to prices starting to increase, which also mean that we are finding a bottom. Record interest rates (4.94% national average) and an 8,000.00 tax credit to first time home buyers are two factors All the statistics on housing increases are higher than economist have expected. There is no secret nation wide that there has never been a better time to buy.

http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/29707055/ Here is a link to the msnbc.com article about Fed Chairman Ben Bernake's announcement that the Federal Reserve is going to put a 1.2 trillion dollar infusion into the financial markets. This link http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/21134540/vp/29763289#29763289 will explain how this will help stabilize the economy and get the banks back to making loans to businesses and lowering interest rates. This will help stabilize home prices and help bring us out of a recession. Well with that said the effect on the real estate market will be home sales and land sales will start moving at a faster pace and subsequently prices will increase over a period of time. Banks are clearing their books of foreclosures, sellers are attempting short sales with banks approvals, and sellers are absorbing losses on previous investments. I can assist you in making a monumental move as far as buying a bargain priced home, creek lot, Mountain View lot, lake lot, farm, or parcel of land. I know inside information from banks, developers, and sellers needing to sale. If you are a bargain hunter then contact me cause you have found your bargain finder. The people buying now are the ones looking at the greatest margin of gain. So as I have stated in other posted bogs NOW IS THE TIME. Don't miss the drop in the real estate market and pay too much.

I have information that the majority of other agents in my area DON'T HAVE. Whether it be a Foreclosure, Attempted Short Sale, Developer needing cash flow, or any other number of non material facts that I am privy to; THEN this is a Great Reason to contact me. If you have any questions about Buyers Agency, Sellers Agency or Dual agency then contact me and I will provide a brochure and gladly explain. There are deals on Water Front Properties, Lake Front properties, Lake view properties, AWESOME Mountain View properties, Creek and River properties and INVESTMENT OPPORTUNITIES that our area has not seen in decades.

Looking for property

I just want to jot a note to you all. Today is another beautiful day in Murphy. It is around 65 degrees and the sun is shining. If I was retired or on vacation, I would have found my way to one of our local golf courses. Anyway, I was showing some real estate this morning to a young lady from the Tampa area. It was a real pleasure. We traveled some of our picturesque roads. We went past some beautiful pastures, some gorgeous mountain views and our own Lake Hiwassee. We were looking at a couple of bargain lots that we have for sale. She had found them on another website, which is OK. Not everyone has found our site, yet. Neither one was quite what she was looking for. The good thing is that now I know what she is wanting. I think I  found one for her after she left. She plans to stop back in tomorrow to look. Feel free to call me if you want me to help you find your next place.

RE/MAX Agent Business Trip

Went to Gulf Shores, Alabama This past week end. Met several RE/MAX Agents while I was gone. The  weather was wonderful. I enjoyed the time away from work as our area is picking up and have been busy. Brought back fresh sea food and grilled Flounder and had some deep water shrimp ( Big Reds ) . I also bought two nice Scamps. The drive back to the mountains was beautiful. A bright sunny day was what we were greeted with. It is great to be back home in the Western North Carolina Mountains.

Western North Carolina Mountains

The mountains of western North Carolina are so beautiful.  At certain times of the day "purple mountains majesty" becomes a realty to those that look up and take notice.

Lakes, creeks and streams abound throughout this glorious piece of real estate that includes Murphy, Andrews, Marble, Topton, Culberson and Hayesville.  Carolina blue skies isn't just a cliche, they are beautifully real.  Who wouldn't want to see all of this every day?

Mountain chalets, rustic cabins and family style homes all meld together to form a gracious and friendly community with caring people.  Second homes or as some say, vacation hmes, are a great part of this mountain area of the Smokey Mountains.  The Appalachian mountain folklore can still be heard and the roots of the proud people who settled this area are evident in many ways.

Bargains, good deals and exceptional values in homes and land can be found.  Prices are down considerably from two years ago.  Now is the time to make your investment in these mountains.  You will enjoy a good investment for your pleasure or experience a profit down the road when you decide to sell.

RE/MAX Mountain Properties has qualified, experienced, friendly realtors ready to make your dream of having mountain property come true.  Call us today and see what we can do fo ryou.

Wishing you all a wonderful day.

Priced To sale

Listed a 30+ - acre parcel this week that has a noisy creek running through it , with awesome views. The land has approximately 1300 feet of creek. I reduced prices on several listings as sellers are motivated. Sent a commercial request to an up and coming restaurant chain along with another business that is seeking a  commercial location in our area. Played golf Monday at the Cherokee Hills Golf Course , which I understand from a members meeting is in the process of being bought . The group that is in the process of purchasing the Cherokee Hills Golf course has plans of redoing the course with the help of  the Davis Love the Third golf design team. Buyers are starting to stir as they believe the time is right to buy. There were two vacation rental clients that have booked a georgeous creek cabin this week. This is going to be a great year for all of us at Remax Mountain Properties and don't let the opportunities that are here pass you by. Signed Dex Hubbard Sr. Broker
