Community REview – The Summit In Blairsville Georgia
There is a fascinating community located just off of The Appalachian Highway in Blairsville, GA. The Summit is comprised of beautiful Traditional Homes more conducive to full time residents of Union County. The Summit has much to offer, convenience to 515, the new Wal-Mart, and of course downtown Blairsville. This all paved community boasts breathtaking views of the Mountains in North Carolina, Tennessee. In addition to Mountain Views in North Georgia, The Summit enjoys incredible views of Lake Nottely, from canal lake all the way to the dam!
Currently within The Summit, there are 3 Homes For Sale and 10 Vacant Lots For Sale. I have also attached a copy of the Plat for you to review. Of the Restrictions within the community, I would like to point out just a few. Before you can begin any construction on a home within The Summit, you must submit your plans to the Architectural Review Board to approve the overall aesthetics of the home. The homes most contain no less than 1800 sq.ft. of heated living space, excluding any carports, garage, or basement. If the plans call for a second level, then a minimum of 1500 sq.ft. must be on the main level. All building exteriors must be completely covered with stone, brick, stucco, wood, or wood like materials. Please note that wood must be painted in Earth Tone colors. The last thing that does come up quite regularly, is the roof pitch must be no less than an 8/12 pitch excluding porches. Please consult with your Real Estate Agent for a complete list of all the Restrictions before you purchase your home or vacant lot within The Summit.

Once an old Union County family farm, Arden Acres enjoys beautiful Mountain and Pasture Views surrounded by aged old Hardwood Trees, painting an absolute gorgeous Mountain Portrait.

Other covenants and restrictions are some what common for our area, items such as no mobile homes, no businesses, no commercial styled signage, and many other items that need to be closely looked at.

March 2010 Union County Lots – Acreage Market Report
If there is any good news at all concerning the Union County Lots and Acreage Real Estate Market, it is that inventory is down. The number of new properties listed by month is down a staggering 90%, a change of 192 fewer listings from this time last year. The total number of Properties For Sale in Blairsville is down 12%, a change of 219.
If that wasn’t enough good news, then how about the fact that the Median Sold Price by month was up as well, 16% with an average increase of $4,500. Not much, not near enough, but none the less a positive increase. The number of units sold however was down 38%, a decrease of 5 from February of last year. Also, the number of units that went under contract was down 29%, but only a decrease of 2 properties.
The average Days On Market (DOM) continues to increase, up 17% to 240 days. That also causes the Absorption Rate to increase as well. The average Month Supply of Inventory is up 21% to an incredible 299 months supply of Vacant Lots For Sale in Blairsville, GA. Let me do the math for you. That means that at current market conditions, and taking into consideration that we do not have any additional lots enter the Union County Real Estate Market, it would take almost 25 years to deplete our inventory. Wow! I have a funny feeling that these Bank Closures might cause this time frame to speed up just a little. What do you think?

March 2010 Union County Residential Market Report
As you can see from the above report, the Median Sales Price for Homes Sold in Blairsville, GA. continues to fall. There was a change of $21,525, down 14% from February of 2009. This is due mostly in part to the Short Sales and Foreclosures that continue to plague both our Residential Market, and even more so our Vacant Lots and Acreage Market. I will be sharing that report in a later post.
The good news is because of the amount of Short Sales and Foreclosures, the number of units SOLD is up 18%. Only a change of 3, but 18% sounds so much better. There was no change this month over a year ago for number of properties that went under contract. The number of homes under contract year over year in February was 20.
The number of new homes being listed in Union County is down 31%. We had 27 fewer residential listings hit the market in Blairsville Georgia in February 2010 over last year. This is mainly due in part to New Construction coming to a near halt. Along with number of new listings going down, the total number of Properties For Sale in Blairsville was down 14% as well.
Our average Days On Market (DOM) for Homes Listed In Blairsville was up 32%, an added 47 days from the previous 149 from a year ago to a total of 196 average days on market. However with the drop in Inventory and a slight increase in Demand, our Month Supply of Inventory, better known as our Absorption Rate is down 14% to roughly 31 months.

2009 Blairsville Georgia Real Estate Market Review
As you can imagine, 2009 presented many obstacles for those of us in the Real Estate and Mortgage Industry. It was a tough and challenging year no doubt, but presented some hope for the future. Although 2010 has not started with record breaking numbers, many are still predicting that this could be the year we finally see “The Bottom.”
My broker Robert Rogers, really does a great job leading our agents and guiding us to success. He is a numbers guy, and he stays on top of the market and keeps all of us at Blairsville Realty informed as to exactly what is going on in the Real Estate Market in the Blairsville, GA., and all of the North Georgia Mountains.
I too wanted to congratulate my associates at Blairsville Realty for being #1 in number of units SOLD in all of the Northeast Georgia Board of Realtors(R) MLS, and #1 in number of units SOLD and Sales Volume in Union County. I am very fortunate and proud to work with such a great group of professionals, but more importantly friends that I consider to be family.
