Background: I was born and raised in Ashe County and know the people and area extremely well.  I entered into the real estate industry in 1978 and have seen the market go up and down over the years.  However, even during the down years, it always came back up!  With a current down market, it is still one of the  best times to buy real estate with some of the lowest interest rates I've saw in my lifetime.  I am here to help you with the ins and outs of your next purchase or in the selling of your property.  I have 10 grandchildren, but don't let my age fool you - I can climb any mountain you want to see!!  Give me a call.
