I knew there was an area right around the corner that was protected but I had no idea that the house I was showing potential clients was right across the street from 178 acres of protected forestland. (The 2500sq/ft house is awesome and still available hint hint!). What I found was a nature prese...

I could not believe it when I looked up Taylors on Localism this morning and found not one post. I was shocked. Here in the foothills of the Blue Ridge Mountains and Travelers Rest, Taylors SC is just one burb east, down south that means spittin distance (5 mins away). Besides Travelers Rest, mos...

We've reached that milestone that happens to every parent and child on the planet. It begins with a vehement NOOOOO and usually ends in tears.

The lake properties look like mud front lots, the mosquitos are bad and the grass/fields look like late fall-completely yellowed and burnt. Now is the time to ta...

I had an epiphany while sitting on the porch this morning looking at the mountains and thinking about what to blog. I'd looked over the news, real estate listings and my email and thought. You know what? As much blogging as we do, we're all looking at news, other blogs, mortgage rates , political...
