Your Five Star Local Lender “Bonnye and Genny were so great! Being a first-time homebuyer and in the military, I had little time and knowledge, but they made it so easy! They were on top of everything and were great communicating what needed to be done.” “Navigating the world of mortgages/refinancing can be an overwhelming experience to say the least. Saddle Ridge Mortgage made it easier than I could have ever imagined. Genny explained the process from the beginning, kept me informed of next steps and timelines, and was always available to answer my (many) questions. Seriously superb customer service. Highly recommend.” “Genny and her team were great to work with. Very quick to respond to questions or concerns.” “I have been underwriting since 2002. As an UW, I appreciate the attention to detail and sense of urgency I have received when working with Bonnye Williams. She is professional and knowledgeable about all loan programs. Even when obstacles present themselves I can count on her to assist me with anything I need to ensure the borrowers receive stellar service and we can move forward quickly without delaying the docs. She is easy to work with and has a good sense of humor which is invaluable in today’s market!”

Georgia’s 2nd oldest state park is located at the base of Blood Mountain in the Chattahoochee National Forest. The park includes Neel Gap, a beautiful mountain pass near Brasstown Bald, the highest point in GA. Vogel is particularly popular during the fall when the mountains transform into a blanket of colored leaves. Hikers can choose from several trails: the popular 4-mile Bear Hair Gap loop, the lake loop that leads to Trahlyta Falls, or the challenging 13-mile Coosa Backcountry Trail. The park’s 22-acre lake is open to non-motorized boats. During summer, visitors can cool off at the mountain-view beach. This park is rich in history, with many facilities being constructed by the Civilian Conservation Corp during our nation’s Great Depression.

Spectacular scenery and hiking trails make this one of Georgia’s most popular state parks. At 729 feet, Amicalola Falls is the tallest cascade in the Southeast. Visitors have choices on how to best view the tumbling waters, ranging from an accessible pathway to a challenging trail with staircases. Those who tackle the latter can join the park’s Canyon Climbers Club. An 8.5-mile trail leads from the park to Springer Mountain, the southern end of the famous 2,175-mile Appalachian Trail. Numerous other trails provide shorter day hikes. A mountain-top lodge is popular with guests who prefer hotel comforts, while cottages and a campground offer more rustic accommodations.

During the 1790s, James Vann became a Cherokee Indian leader, wealthy businessman, & established the largest & most prosperous plantation in the Cherokee Nation, covering 1,000 acres. In 1804 he constructed a beautiful brick home that was the most elegant in the Cherokee Nation. After Vann was murdered in 1809, his son Joseph inherited the property. Joseph was also a Cherokee leader and became more wealthy than his father. In the 1830s almost the entire Cherokee Nation was forced west on the infamous Trail of Tears. Today the Vann House survives as GA’s best-preserved historic Cherokee Indian home. A guided tour allows visitors to see the house which features beautiful hand carvings and more.

A scenic drive leads visitors to this mountain getaway. Hikers, mountain bikers and horseback riders will find some of the most beautiful trails in GA, winding through forests and blueberry thickets, crossing streams and circling a lake. Hikers can also explore a stone fire tower built by the Civilian Conservation Corps and an ancient rock wall which stand on the highest point of the mountain. The mysterious 855-footlong wall is thought to have been built by early Indians as fortification against more hostile Indians or for ancient ceremonies. During summer, visitors can cool off on a lakeside beach. Guided horseback rides are available throughout the year.

20 years before the famed 1849 gold rush in California, thousands of prospectors flocked into the Cherokee Nation in North GA, marking the true beginning of our country’s first gold rush. Their dramatic story is told inside the historic 1836 Lumpkin County Courthouse, the oldest courthouse in GA. Dahlonega prospered with this mining activity, and a U.S. Branch Mint opened in 1838, coining more than $6 million in gold before closing in 1861. The museum’s exhibits include a set of these coins, a nugget weighing more than five ounces, a large hydraulic cannon and nozzle used to blast soil from mountainsides, a film and gift shop.

Georgia’s highest state park encompasses some of the most outstanding scenery in GA’s Blue Ridge Mountains. Roadside overlooks provide spectacular 80-mile vistas, and 4 hiking trails lead visitors past wildflowers, streams, small waterfalls and lush forests. Visitors enjoy the summit visitor center for its views, gift shop and picnic tables. The park’s small lake is popular with anglers and circled by an easy walking trail. At an altitude of 3,640 feet, Black Rock Mountain is often cooler than other GA parks and may close during icy weather.

SEVEN REASONS TO WORK WITH A REALTOR

Buying and selling a home can be stressful. You need an agent who is a REALTOR®, a member of the National Association of REALTORS®, by your side. Here’s why:

1 3 5 7

GET THE INSIDE SCOOP. Real estate professionals have access to exclusive neighborhood and property information to make you a smarter buyer or seller.

NAVIGATE A COMPLEX PROCESS. A real estate professional can guide you on forms, disclosures, and the lending process to help you avoid costly mistakes and delays.

BE UP-TO-DATE. You may have bought or sold a home before, but markets and transaction processes are always changing.

SIMPLIFY YOUR SEARCH.

NEGOTIATE LIKE A PRO.

An agent can educate you on current market conditions and help you find homes that match your criteria using local broker marketplaces—known in the business as multiple listing services.

An agent has the expertise to negotiate terms, from price to repairs, on your behalf.

HAVE A TRUSTED ALLY. Your agent can talk you through the pros and cons behind big decisions and share their network of trusted home inspectors, lenders, remodelers, and more.

DO THE RIGHT THING. Make sure your agent is a REALTOR®. REALTORS® are bound by a strict Code of Ethics based on professionalism, consumer protection, and the golden rule.

THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN AN AGENT AND A REALTOR® IS REAL. Visit: realtor.com/thats-who-we-r

REALTORS® are members of the National Association of REALTORS®
