Get answers to legal questions about real estate ... Email your questions to reweekly@rewnc.com and we’ll get a real real estate attorney to answer them. Seriously.
the question: Is it ok that I plan on writing a personal check to the closing attorney for my house purchase?
the answer: No it is not ok! In North Carolina attorneys are required to have good funds at closing. This means a certified bank check or a wire transfer. It is very important that you talk with your closing attorney to see what their policy is. Start this process well in advance so that it is not rush at the end. If the exact figure is not available when you go to get your check or wire use your Good Faith Estimate from your lender and add extra money for a cushion just in case. Any overage can be refunded to you at closing.

Here are comments from some of our clients
“When you first met with us, you thoroughly reviewed the listing process and stated that there would be no surprises. And there were none.”
Sevan Boghossian, Broker/Realtor 828-407-1231
“You kept us apprised through phone calls, emails, and face-to-face meetings (at our convenience, not yours).”
“Your knowledge of the Asheville real estate area; your sound counsel; and your dedication to your profession and your client, enabled us to sell the property quickly and a very satisfactory price.”
Are you interested in selling your home? If so, now is an EXCELLENT time to do so, as our clients have recently experienced great success selling their homes at or near their asking price in a very short time after placing their homes on the market. When you list your home with us, your property will be advertised on a vast majority of Web sites. We will also create a custom site for your home with a slide show, virtual tour map, neighborhood information, professional photography, and even video footage. And since the best Web site is useless if prospective buyers can’t find it, every site featuring your home is optimized for high page rankings on Google and other major search engines. Additionally, we employ social network sites and RSS feeds to promote your property to interested home buyers. Truly would be our pleasure to provide you with a comprehensive CMA at absolutely no cost; we hope that you’ll take advantage of this special offer and contact us at your earliest convenience! And, of course, should you decide in the future to list your home for sale, we would love to have the opportunity to serve you!

Meet our Buyer Specialists: Mary Jo Eskritt:
Tina Hill
I was born and raised in rural Central Wisconsin on a 4th generation family dairy farm. From the time I was old enough to help with the farm chores, both in the field and in the barn, I learned the value of hard work and making a contribution as a family unit working together during the planting, growing and harvesting season. I also became one of the chief "milk maids" for the dairy herd. I also worked "picking pickles" to earn my way through college. I strive daily to be an example of what a difference hard work and a grateful heart can make. I moved to the Asheville area in 2001 and soon after affiliated with Keller Williams, voted the "Most Innovative Real Estate Company" by Inman News. I take the Keller Williams approach, one built on personal touches, personal relationships with a professional approach and most importantly, positive results. When I joined Pat and Donna and Asheville's Dream Team there were only 3 members and we have grown to over 10 members with the drive, talent and expertise to bring terrific results to our clients.
I have had the opportunity to live and work in several parts of the country and fell in love with Western North Carolina and the Asheville area almost 20 years ago, and made the decision to call it home for the last seven. These mountains are the perfect back drop for the activities I enjoy; Hiking with my dogs, kayaking, river rafting, photography and writing. From the variety of local music venues to the amazing restaurants and abundant selection of local craft beer, by any standard life is good here in Asheville. I will personally hold your hand and walk you through every step of your home buying journey from Hello to the closing table. My diligence, negotiating skills and market expertise will secure your most valued personal investment.....the Zen experience comes standard.
What Mary Jo's Clients are saying...
"Never had a Realtor talk me out of buying something....Tina cared enough to wait for the right home for our family." "she is a great listener" "very calm and self assured even when we were not." "Tina is an excellent problem solver and never loses her cool." "great sense of humor....which we really needed." "She always did exactly what she said she would do." "Very tenacious....does not give up." "Tina's kindness and patience made buying our home a great experience." "works incredibly hard and really knows her stuff." "she was always willing to let me vent and then put me right back on track...exactly what I needed."
"We feel very very very good to have met Mary Jo and have her looking out for us. She has been wonderful throughout this entire process and especially with us being in Florida." “Mary Jo helped my parents sell their home several years ago and more recently helped my sister and her husband find a home when they returned to the area. They all told me that Mary Jo was the BEST they had ever worked with so on their recommendation I contacted Mary Jo to assist me in purchasing a piece of land in Asheville. I purchased the property with her help and then just a few months later decided to buy a house instead of build. Mary Jo listed my land and got it sold within 2 weeks! I found the perfect house and Mary Jo was there every step of the way until I owned it! You will find no Realtor more qualified, professional and willing to listen to what you are looking for than Mary Jo Eskritt!"

Superfoods that can improve your health (StatePoint) In a world where fatty, fried and frosted foods are often the cheapest, quickest and most readily available options, it can be easy to forget the true purpose of eating -- to healthfully fuel our bodies. “The higher-quality fuel you put in your body, the better you will function. The right diet can potentially prevent you from developing certain diseases and conditions,” says Gerry Cysewski, Ph.D., co-author of “Spirulina: Nature’s SuperFood,” and Chief Science Officer of Nutrex Hawaii, a nutritional supplement
manufacturer. And despite what many people think, healthful eating doesn’t have to come at the price of taste or time. Foods rich in nutrition can make quick snacks and be incorporated easily into your favorite dishes. Here are ideas for how to fit three superfoods into your diet: Blueberries Skip the sodium overload of chomping on chips and lower your risk for heart disease, diabetes and even the common cold with some blueberries. Blueberries are full of flavor as well as antioxidants, phytoflavinoids, Vitamin C and potassium. While they make for a great snack on their own, blueberries are also delicious as a yogurt, oatmeal or cereal topper. Spirulina For a wealth of protein, vitamins, minerals and antioxidants, take a cue from the ancient Mayans and Aztecs and incorporate spirulina in your daily diet. Hawaiian spirulina, a microalgae-based superfood, contains more than 100 nutrients, and a three gram serving contains higher levels of key antioxidants, enzymes, vitamins and minerals than five servings of fruits and vegetables.
“A single serving of spirulina is like a rainbow of good nutrition, containing the orange of beta-carotene for immune system support, the yellow of zeaxanthin for eye and brain health, the green of chlorophyll for anti-toxin health benefits, and the blue of phycocyanin for inflammatory balance,” says Cysewski. What’s the best way to get your daily dose? Consider taking pill supplements, or if you prefer, mix spirulina powder in dips like guacamole or hummus. Or for a tasty breakfast, lunch or snack, try this: Spirulina Smoothe: Blend these ingredients together and serve immediately: • 1/2 cup yogurt • 1 cup of fruit juice (apple, orange or pineapple) • 1 or more of the following: 1 papaya, 1 peach, 1 mango 1/2 cup of boysenberries or raspberries • 1 teaspoon Hawaiian Spirulina powder Spinach Popeye was onto something when he downed those cans of spinach. The dark leafy greens contain minerals, vitamins, pigments and phytonutrients that benefit eyesight, blood pressure, muscles, bones, skin and a healthy nervous system. For a low-fat, low-calorie source of iron and protein, put the burger down and eat spinach instead. Opt for the fresh variety, swapping out iceberg lettuce in salads, or sauté lightly with olive oil and garlic for a great side. Spinach is also tasty in omelets and makes a healthy alternative to ground meat in lasagna. With a little creativity, giving your body the right fuel it needs to stay healthy can be convenient and delicious.

Natural Sanctuary. Cosmopolitan Convenience.
Crest Mountain is one of Asheville's most special places. Less than five miles from the heart of downtown, it remains isolated enough to be private and peaceful. The property itself just might be "the prettiest piece of land in Buncombe County," but the breathtaking views are Crest Mountain's true claim to fame.
