It’s without a doubt the best time in recent history to invest in real estate! I realize you have heard this in marketing campaigns by our national, state and local associations but this time, listen... Within our service delivery area, we have the lowest inventory levels in many years and some price points have reached levels that will require new construction homes to offer buyers options that haven’t been “picked over”. Do yourself a favor, call on one of our REALTOR® advertisers to discuss available inventory that meets your criteria in a home. If you’re still not convinced, price a comparable lot and get a cost estimate to build the same home but beware, if you take too long that deal that you’ve found may be under contract when you decide what a deal it was! Happy House Hunting! Faron W. King- 2011 NEGBOR President

Rafting down the Chattooga River is one of the most popular outdoor adventure trips in Georgia. There are classes from beginner to advanced. This river is known for its exquisite scenery. The Chattooga River is the longest undammed river in the southeast and runs along the northeast border of Georgia (Rabun County) and South Carolina. The class II section of the Chattooga River offers a mild floating experience through wilderness that’s rich in Native American history. The class III section is clearly the most popular section of the river. It offers more than a dozen rapids, including Dicks Creek Ledge, the Narrows, Eye of the Needle, and Painted Rock. The most difficult part of this section is Bull Sluice. Even though section III is the most popular, section IV is probably the most well known. Section IV is the steepest part of the river and most difficult. The river drops more than 75 feet through famous Five Falls – with the Entrance, Corkscrew, Crack in the Rock, Jawbone and finally, Sock ‘em dog.

If you’re someone who just wants to relax and enjoy the gentle flow of the water, then the Toccoa River is the place you want to be. This river is actually the headwaters of the Ocoee River in Tennessee. The Toccoa River is a damcontrolled river. Water levels and speed may change when water is released from the dam. Released water will cause the river to rise 2 to 3 feet and speed up considerably. The depth of the water changes from place to place in the river and you may see small rapids along the way.

Whitewater rafting on the Nantahala River has become one of the most popular destinations in the Southeast for family rafting and group outings. The Nantahala River runs through western North Carolina’s most scenic forests. Often the cold water of the river connects to the warm air creating a mystical fog like floating experience. On a Nantahala River rafting trip you can experience rapids such as Root Canal, the Isle of Dumping, and Tumble Dry. Your trip could end at the only class III rapid on the river, Nantahala Falls. Raft with the kids on the Watauga River, located close to Boone, N.C. The Watauga River is a calm class I rafting adventures. Visit the French Broad River, closer to Asheville, N.C., for a class II, III, or IV rafting experience. The French Broad River is surrounded by beautiful mountains, plenty of rapids, and a jump rock that allows you to leap into the river and swim through Swimmers Rapid. Also, a short distance outside Asheville, N.C. is the Nolichucky River Gorge with class III and IV whitewater rafting. At times this river will provide a serene and playful experience, while at other times it will become roaring and surging.

Not interested in rafting? Visit Worley’s Cave in Bluff City, TN for an unspoiled “wild cave” experience. This cave is known for its voluminous size. Worley’s Cave provides the natural beauty of a cave with formations and undeveloped limestone with unique formations.

The REALTOR® Difference More than just a Licensee!

Why am I a REALTOR®? Because, I choose to differentiate myself, set higher expectations and provide my clientele with the best experience possible in a real estate transaction. I pursue professionalism in being an industry leader and strive to continually outperform others with better tools, professional designations, a broader knowledge base and deeper pool of experiences to draw upon. The annual cost of professionalism, of being a REALTOR®, is minimal when compared to its impact on my business and my industry. As a REALTOR®, I: • am a voice in Washington, D.C. on behalf of all home owners; • use Association approved, Georgia specific legal contracts that let you rest easy at night, knowing your transaction is in complete compliance; • have access to market specific forums and a national resource center to draw upon in the sale or search of your home; and, • have access to advanced education on current tools, industry certifications and the latest trends. If a licensed agent can’t or won’t invest in themselves each year, what makes you believe they would invest the resources necessary to properly market your home? With less than 50% of the active real estate licensees in Georgia electing to become REALTORS®, homebuyers and sellers need to interview prospective agents and ask the question, “Are you a REALTOR®?”

Are you represented by a REALTOR®?

REALTORS® have: Higher Production • Strongest Voice in Washington • Access to the Best Data and Tools • Access to Professional Designations • Support for Local Communities •

Moccasin Creek State Park is located on Lake Burton and provides trails for hiking, fishing, and boating. The nature trail in the park is good for children. More experienced hikers will want to tackle Hemlock Falls Trail, which offers an easy walk, but can be slippery. No camping is allowed at the falls but is permitted at the trailhead. The trailhead is not difficult to find because it is carved in stone. Experienced hikers may want to brave the toppled trees above Hemlock Falls and continue on to Moccasin Creek Falls about a half-mile further. This trail, once a maintained path, is now frequently blocked by debris. The path is actually part of a longer path that at one time continued to Addis Gap, where it merged with the Appalachian Trail. Lake Burton was one of the first lakes in the United States created specifically for power generation. With the completion of the dam at the east end of the lake in 1913, more than 2700 acres of lake were created.

One of the most spectacular gorges in Georgia, it runs 3 miles and is between 600 and 1,000 feet deep. The park offers breathtaking views and provides a rich history on this convenient stopping point on U.S. Highway 441. You can experience camping, lake/beach swimming, hiking trails and various exhibits. The hard granite walls of this gorge fall perpendicular to the land above forming steep cliffs that astounded early settlers. The roar of the falls into this canyon could be heard for miles from the deep cut in the face of the earth. After its discovery word spread quickly of the gorge Native Americans called Tallulah. In earlier times this gash in the earth’s crust was the vacation destination for more people than any other place in the Southeast. Ladore(“L’eau d’or”), Tempesta, Hurricane, Oceana and Bridal Veil are the names of the falls on the Tallulah River. A litany to those who love the outdoors and so beautiful they were nicknamed “Niagara of the South.”

At the southern and western end of the Blue Ridge Mountains a tall, lonely peak guards the foothills of the Appalachians. For both white men and Cherokee before them, this ridge has held an enigmatic secret. Piles of non-native rock, many of them large, form a wall that runs more than 800 feet. “Enigmatic”, “puzzling” and “mysterious” are words often used to explain the nondescript stone wall at the top of this Georgia mountain. The wall runs 855 feet and varies in height from two to six feet. When built, it was probably significantly taller. Why was it built? Who built it? When was it built? These are the questions puzzled researchers ask. The time frame for construction ranges from 500B.C. to 1500A.D. The current commonly accepted date for construction is 500 A.D. The myths of the culture who built it abound. Local Indian culture speaks of a race of “moon-eyed” people. Some choose to interpret this as “white people”, inferring that the dark eyed Indians would select this as a description for a light skinned blue eyed race, while others have a more mystic interpretation. If the “moon-eyed” people myth can be believed it would more likely be a reference to the god they worshiped than to the shape of their eyes.

Having the highest altitude of all Georgia state parks, this gem is buried on the Eastern Continental Divide in the northeast corner of the state. Black Rock Mountain State Park offers four hiking trails, camping opportunities, a visitors center and “trading post,” all in the abundant beauty of the Blue Ridge Mountains. Plentiful flora and fauna and impressive views make it one of the best state parks for the outdoors enthusiast in the state. The park covers almost 1800 acres of Rabun County. Flame azalea, rhododendron and mountain laurel bloom during the late spring. Black Rock Mountain State Park takes its name from Black Rock Mountain, elevation 3640 feet. The mountain is northwest of Black Rock Road (Black Rock Mountain Parkway) within the park, and can be climbed on the Tennessee Rock Trail. The shear dark granite wall of the mountain, which is visible and easily identifiable from long distances, makes it a notable feature of the park.

Vogel, Georgia’s second oldest state park, is located in the shadow of Blood Mountain in the heart of Georgia’s Chattahoochee National Forest. Created by the Civilian Conservation Corps, Vogel is perhaps the most enduring monument to the Corps in the state. The centerpiece of the park is 20-acre Lake Trahlyta, created when the Corps dammed Wolf Creek. It was named for a Cherokee maiden who is buried a few miles from the park at Stonepile Gap. At an elevation of 2500 feet, the park maintains a cool evening temperature even in the dog days of summer, making this a great stop for camping. Some of the best hiking trails in the eastern United States are located in or near the park. Access to the Appalachian Trail is from Neel’s Gap, just a little higher up on Blood Mountain. Access to this portion of the trail is from Byron Herbert Reece Trail. Also nearby are the Duncan Ridge Trail and Coosa Backcountry Trail, both of which are strenuous. For those seeking something a little less challenging try Sosebee Cove or Slaughter Creek Trail.
