I am from Russia, Western Siberia to be exact (no, it’s not that bad ). My husband and I lived in Asheville since 2004 and absolutely love it here! In 2015 we became parents to a baby boy, Dmitry (named after my grandfather). And in January 2020 Dmitry became a big brother to Katya. We now share our home with Romeo, who is a jack russell (We lost our first dog in 2022).

Required viewing for anyone considering buying land in WNC. I would add one more issue, shared private roads and the inevitable issue of maintenance costs. We learned the hard way about living on a slope. After being forced to choose between losing our equity or walking away, we had to spend over $200k on a retaining wall. ALWAYS hire an engineer before building on a slope. Asheville has broken many hearts. Lead with your brain!

You’re right about the roads! Driving up to a property and seeing the road can also give you a good clue about its maintenance.
@jamesolivito4374 Ай бұрын
Some have right of ways through the property with no road . Then you wake up one day, and the neighbor who just bought the lot next to you has a bull dozer in your garden . Even if you get a lawyer , do your own research on the deed .

Asheville is like the San Fransisco of the Carolina's... Expensive, lots of rules. Asheville very liberal compared to rest of NC, surround by very conservative towns. Personally don't care, but maybe consider your particular flavor, might as well live and be comfortable w/ your neighbors... And sloped lots are great for walkouts / garage under.

Elena, you are by far the most competent real estate broker in the Asheville area by raising these important issues. Just look at the road system in Asheville as it winds through areas that would make road building expensive. The roads wind as the DOT seeks relatively flat surfaces avoiding as much solid rock as possible. Rock outcroppings are very common in WNC with only a small amount of topsoil covering the land. Building a foundation on rock can be very expensive. I look forward to more of your insights.

I had no idea building a house was so complicated (and expensive). I think I'd go for a house that's already been built. I don't need all those headaches! Whew!

Yes the roads living in the mountains has its hidden costs for sure , some of these roads may need paved it’s steep and if you are lucky to own a machine it may just not be enough back to back rains will wash your hard work away in seconds , pain will be best over time or concrete , don’t do hoa if you have the time check into America’s home place if you buy the land you can use it as a down payment so don’t come out of pocket , also a great bank is ag south farm credit speak with Jason rogers they work together with America’s home place takes all the stress away , and yes they are stick built home quality built up to code , have 2x6 walls and 2x4 customizable AHP will take care of you and the home is guaranteed up to a year . Good luck

Concrete mountain road is going to be very expensive as a lot of these driveways are long and steep. And it is definitely not going to work in winter. Some communities keep roads gravel to have traction in winter otherwise it can be very dangerous
