Smoky Mountains Retirement Property (Western NC or Eastern TN)
Howdy BP community,
I'm helping my parents navigate a retirement real estate purchase, as they look to flee the scorching summers of Texas (also apparently winter-storm-ravaged at this point). Right now they are considering the Smoky Mountains area around Western North Carolina or Eastern Tennessee. I'd love to hear form local area experts:
- What should they be looking for?
- What should they look out for?
- Areas to consider or avoid?
Their list of requirements is pretty specific and includes a preference for Single-family energy efficient, sustainable, and green built properties near small towns with big personality & culture. B-)
Thanks for any assistance you can provide!
