Top 5 What to Look for when buying land in Asheville?

As with any thing in life, most things become complicated. Buying land in Asheville doesn’t have to be. Basically, you need to take a few things into consideration before buying your new homesite. These are important things to consider as they will remain permanent throughout the life of the land and the home you build on it. If you are looking for land that will hold its value for generations to come, the following top 5 considerations should be ruthlessly adhered to:

1 Location! Location! Location! Real Estate doesn’t move and therefore, where you buy isn’t going to change. Love the location you choose by taking into consideration it’s proximity to your needs, wants, and conveniences with in the surrounding area.

2 Know the costs involved! This means exactly what it says. Before buying a lot, make sure you know the costs of the upcoming build. Depending on the slope of the land, especially in the mountains, the foundation can be one of the most biggest budgeting necessities. Remember this when shopping for land. Usually, you will not find views from a flat lot.

3 Zoning, Covenants and Ordinances! These are three basic rules when buying anything. Zoning is what the city/state/municipality protects from being build in/or around the area. Covenants state what can be done within you or your neighbors yards, how many structures they can build, what type of structure can they build? Ordinances also control many things that are or are not allowed in your community or part of town.

4 Road Access! Who owns the road? How is the road maintained? This is essential to know because if the road isn’t maintained by city/county/state, you and your neighbors will be picking up the tab!

5 Love the land. Fall in love with the views and the surrounding area. Make this part of your purchase based on your emotion. Remember, where you choose to buy, the deed and that particular land will never relocate. In the end, Live where love.
