Recently I was previewing some $125,000.00 and below properties for some clients and my search came up with 8 that could be promising.  It took me all afternoon to drive in all directions and I did find  a couple of really, cute, adorable cottages here in the W. Carolina Mtns .; well worth the money they were asking.  Any of you that know the Highlands and Cashiers, NC area, know that it is has some of the most expensive homes in America or in close competition with....beach front property and islands, etc.   (Yes, we even have an island with homes for sale on it, high-end homes.) You boat there to get home.   Well, there's still room for we that want to live here and be the 'working class' .  Such was the friends/clients that I was searching for.

Many of you are familiar with the devastating effects of the Hemlock Woolly Adelgid (HWA) on the beautiful hemlock trees in our area. According to the US Forest Service, these pests will kill a hemlock tree within a few years. The HWA does not have enough natural enemies here to keep it in check, and the hemlock trees have not built up a resistance to it. The good news is that there are effective insecticidal treatments for infected trees, as well as preventative measures that can be taken to protect healthy trees. The Jackson-Macon Conservation Alliance (JMCA) provides helpful tips on how to treat against the HWA and save our properties and forests from this invasive and destructive insect.
