Save Time and Money Looking for Smith Mountain Lake Real Estate
http://www.smithmountainlakefronthome…

Find the Deals NO ONE Wants You To Know About…like Smith Mountain Lake Short Sales, Bank Owned Property, Foreclosures. There are only ever a few, but I’ve been finding the best deals on lake houses and commercial property for my clients since 2001!

Yes! There are waterfront cottages, cabins, doublewides and mobile homes available on Smith Mountain Lake for UNDER $600K! We also have waterfront lots available for UNDER $400K!

Click Here for Your FREE Waterfront Bargains Report!
http://www.smithmountainlakefronthome…

…and I will personally send you a complete list in two reports! One will have homes and one will have lots so that they are easy to read.

This incredible report contains:

SMITH MOUNTAIN LAKEFRONT LOTS UNDER $400K +
SMITH MOUNTAIN LAKEFRONT HOMES UNDER $600K
Has given every home buyer “The Smith Mountain Lake Edge”

Remember Smith Mountain Lake has Homes up to $7,000,000
and Lots up to $1,500,000 …
so anything under $600,000 is A GOLD MINE!!

waterfront cottages, mobiles, doublewides under $500K and waterfront lots with a 100’+ waterfront [required for dock building] available under $400K… you don’t want to miss out on some of the best bargains we’ve seen in a decade!

So Hurry! Properties are already being listed for higher and once the Season kicks off, we expect this inventory to be completely depleted!

What you may not know, is that Smith Mountain Lake is not seeing the “gloom and doom” forecast that the media loves to feed us with a serving spoon each day.

The lake has opened 4 new restaurants with a 5th getting ready to open, a brand new YMCA, and Downtown Moneta is buzzing with excitement. There are new upscale communities already in completion this season. We also have a Drive-In movie theater with a silver bullet retro diner as the snack shop and eatery.

Smith Mountain Lake is powered by GREEN TECHNOLOGY! It’s hydroelectric. I’m learning more and more each day about how to make even the tiniest cottage more green!

If you’ve been dragging your feet and hesitating until now, and are one of the frustrated family’s that has missed every great market for getting a lake house, then all I can ask is: “What are you waiting for?”

There is still something for everyone at Smith Mountain Lake… and owning a piece of it while it’s still affordable is a much better retirement plan than playing any other market… as you already know!
With 550 Miles of Shoreline and 22,000 Acre Lake,
there is something for every modern-day budget…

Smith Mountain Lake Real Estate | Smith Mountain Lake | Real Estate | Bargains

Have you become a Smith Mountain Lake Tire Kicker?

Don’t Worry….In The US Most People Have Become Afraid of Buying Their Dream Home So You Are In VERY GOOD COMPANY!

Have you been looking, and looking and looking and hoping that the prices will drop, or that some mansion will fall into your lap for $400K?

Forget it…you’re kidding yourself and everyone around you…and even if something like that came along…some of you would not be here to scoop it up…there are still hundred of buyers that live here buying properties as they see them…and yet you have—if you email me today,

“The Smith Mountain Lake Edge”…  

 CLICK HERE NOW TO GET STARTED!

Well, I’m here today to try to snap you out of your
lake house shopping coma! haha…. 🙂

It’s amazing that folks that were ready to buy, 2 years ago, haven’t taken advantage of last year’s recession-type pricing and are still waiting for the other shoe to drop.

Listen, 9/11, Katrina, riots in Greece, the Euro Crisis and BP have ALL happened during my watch, and year after year, I watch people put their American Dream on Hold because they are so incredibly paralyzed by the crap that CNN feeds us, that they get to the end of the summer saying…

“Well….maybe next year’s my year…”

hoooooooooo hum….?

I’m literally writing to you today to say:

SNAP OUT OF IT!!!!!

This is YOUR life, and while everyone’s here having fun, you’re still trying to figure out if you’re going to take action sometime this century.

Seriously, I just sold yet, another waterfront gem this week, and those folks will be on the lake on July 15th having barbecues, wake boarding, jetskiing, and chilling on their dock with mojitos. Why?

Because they took inspired action and we looked at 3 dozen homes and started making timed/expiring offers and whoever was the most motivated, took the bait and the rest is history!

What do you need to do to get started?
  • Get a pre-qualifiaction letter from your bank,
  • set $5K aside for your “good faith deposit”–This will be applied 100% toward your closing.
  • BANKS NEED 30-45 DAYS…LET’S GO!!

INTEREST RATES ARE AT AN ALL-TIME LOW AND THERE ARE SOOOOO MANY PRODUCTS YOU CAN USE TO PAY FOR YOUR LAKE HOME…JUST ASK YOUR LOCAL MORTGAGE REP. IF YOU DON’T HAVE ONE, WE HAVE MANY LAKE MORTGAGE REPS HERE, WHO WORK STRICTLY WITH SECOND AND VACATIONS HOMES READY TO HELP YOU!


The summer will be over before you know it, and you will have missed out again! Don’t delay…don’t second guess, when you have that gut feeling that this is the time to get your lake home…even if it’s just your starter lake home…

GO FOR IT!

Some of you….yes, you know who you are, having been “looking” for over 5 years! OUCH! Do you know that bargains you’ve missed?

Seriously, figure out your price range….and let me get you a fresh waterfront home MLS list—but YOU have to give me a logical price range…
fair enough?
I don’t care what your number is, the worst I can tell you is…sorry there is nothing available for that….and you might have to go a little higher…

ALL YOU NEED IS A LITTLE COTTAGE…800-1100 SQ FEET—AND NO…I’M NOT TALKING ABOUT A SINGLEWIDE…to get started. You can find these for under $400K—which is about the price of a waterfront lot. Wouldn’t you want to use it NOW? Why build when you can buy and have an instant vacation????

IT’S ENTIRELY UP TO YOU…BUT AS THAT BOOK TITLE
SO APTLY SAYS…
UH…”EXCUSE ME…YOUR LIFE IS WAITING…”

It’s waiting for you here, at Smith Mountain Lake, Virginia!

Stop dreaming…start living!
Noreen


PS: You’ve already missed the Poker Run, the ESPN Bassmaster’s Tournament Live on ESPN, Memorial Day, and Joyous Junque…a $75K garage sale…

Don’t miss the 4th of July, The Smith Mountain Lake Wine Festival, SML Chili Cook-off and everything in between!

EMAIL ME FOR A  THE LIST OF COTTAGES…THESE ARE THE LEAST EXPENSIVE HOMES WITH GOOD WATER AND ARE NOT IN THE FLOOD PLAIN, NOT SINGLEWIDES OR DOUBLEWIDES…REAL HOUSES!
IF THEY DON’T HAVE A DOCK, THEY MAY NOT BE ABLE TO HAVE ONE, SO BE CAREFUL WITH THAT.

I WILL PERSONALLY SEND YOU A LIST THE DAY I HEAR FROM YOU!

Smith Mountain Lake: Need Rental Income to Offset Your Lake Mortgage

These homes provide “potential” income….

If you’ve ever heard of ( or used)
homeaway.com
then you know the potential power
of a rental….

Don’t get me wrong…
being a landlord isn’t
always amazing….
but if you really don’t care
if strangers use your place
while you’re not there….
and you get some rental income
to off-set your new mortgage….
it works out pretty well for some homes.

99% of these will be in Bedford County, as 
Franklin County has an ordinance prohibiting short-term
vacation rentals unless the subdivision has “resort” status.
(Think Bernard’s Landing…)

How it works:
I’m not in rentals…
you would need to hire a rental company
after purchasing your lake home…

They collect rents, have the home cleaned
and book potential renters via sites like
homeaway and others….

They keep about 25-30% of the profit for the
short-term rental…

You book your own stays around
the bookings to maximize income….

There are about 17 strong rental weeks here…
your typical Memorial Day through Labor Day…
but if you’re creative, you can surely come up 
with holiday specials year-round!

The caveat?

You’ve GOT TO GET ONE BEFORE FEBRUARY 1ST TO MAXIMIZE YOUR POTENTIAL INCOME…THAT GIVES YOU TIME TO CLOSE, CLEAN-UP, HIRE YOUR RENTAL COMPANY, ADVERTISE, ETC….

On 550 miles of shoreline, there are about 50+/- available
(not including doublewides)

That’s not a lot, and in-season 

(that 17 weeks)
Good luck finding one!

All the Best!
Noreen

Smith Mountain Lake | The Gift That Keeps On Giving

smith mountain lake autumn

As the song goes…”It’s that time of year…”    I’ll spare you the rest!

So…I have been thinking about this post for a
month now, but it’s so relevant that I had to
share it.

Did you know that the average American
household spends about $3,000 to $5,000 on
“The Holidays” from the end of summer
through New Year’s Eve?

I know…you may be saying that you’re frugal,
and you don’t spend anymore, or you’re
empty-nesters, or a number of things…and I’m
sure all of that is true until we all get our credit
card bills and wonder where the holidays were
atually “spent”.

Couple that, with this (new, again) cyclical
phenomena…how many of you have a “multi-
generational” home today? My sister has 3
generations under one roof in NJ and it is a
practical solution for this economy.

Here’s why I’m bringing all of this up….

One Autumn weekend in the not-so-distant past…
we made a decision….”Carpe Diem!”, followed
by “Life’s too Short”…followed by…
“That’s it…pack a bag…we are going to find our
lakehouse!”

It was a cruddy economy, to say the least…it
was the infamous “Dot.com bust” and I was
notified that I was getting laid off as a
programmer. The company I was working for
was planning on going IPO, and instead, they
rolled up the carpets and went bankrupt and
took our stock options with them…. So it wasn’t
any better than today…in fact, it was worse.

“Getting out of Dodge” was just what we
needed….and when we crossed the
Shenandoah’s and then the Blue Ridge
Mountains came into view, it was just what the
doctor ordered…..peace, calm and change.

So, it was Halloween weekend when we put the
contract on our first lakehouse, and we closed
on December 15th…and haven’t looked back
since….

We put the holidays on hold…made a few
“home-made” gifts and vowed to share the
lakehouse with family and friends as our
current and future holiday offering….

Did it take some “begging, borrowing and
stealing”?…oh heck yeah…did it take some
“robbing Peter to pay Paul”? you know it!

We had to have garage sales…there was no 
such thing as Craigslist or Ebay, no such thing 
as PayPal, we barely had a cell signal on our flip
phones 😉 for the trip!

That was 15 years ago, this coming week….so,
I’m telling you that you’re not that far behind me
and you can catch up if you just pick up the
pace and run toward your Dream!

Sit down with yourself….or the family….or the
multiple generations and ask them if they’d all
like to pitch in for your new Smith Mountain
Lake Homestead! Forego the presents and
huge purchases….scrimp and save it all up, sell
your old stuff on Ebay and Craigslist, and you’ll
see how quickly your downpayment can add
up!

Talk to your lender to see what’s possible….and
if you need help, we have lake lenders here….

In honor of my 15th Anniversary of Closing at 
Smith Mountain Lake, I’d like to offer this:

If you put a home under contract by December 
15th, 2015 I will give you $500 towards your 
closing costs, at the closing table.

I want each and every one of you, to FINALLY,
REALIZE your DREAMS!

Have a Great Week!
All the Best!

Smith Mountain Lake Real Estate | Doublewides and Trailers | The Story and How To Buy One

I first wrote this piece in 2015 because we were having a feeding frenzy on old trailer and double-wide properties on the water 5 years ago……NOW IN 2020, we have virtually no double-wide or trailer inventory—and those that we do have, 5 years later, are now in the mid-to-upper $300,000’s.  The problem is, I still get contacted all of the time to scoop up an old deal, which folks have been scooping up already for almost a decade.

The problem with these trailers is this—they have also aged another decade and most banks, depending on the trailer’s age, have become reluctant to finance them. That requires creativity on your part–home equity lines of credit on your primary home, or just cold hard cash to make a deal work….

Since the original writing of this post, simple 2BR Cottages range from the low to mid-400K’s now, and that is, if you can find one, and a basic 3/2 is in the $500K’s on Smith Mountain Lake.

At the time of this Update (2/24/2020) There are only 87 Single Family, detached, waterfront homes on Smith Mountain Lake up to $1M with the median price range on the lake soaring to a new high of $750K.

If you compare us to other states, Smith Mountain Lake, Virginia is still an incredible bargain—lakes in NJ and NY for instance have had lakehomes in the $1-$2million range for the better part of 30 years——-

Smith Mountain Lake no longer allows singlewides (unless grandfathered on campground lots) or travel trailers on the water in over 90% of it’s subdivisions so gone are the days of buying a lot and being a gypsy—

Still, it’s still possible to own the American Dream and shop for your Smith Mountain Lake home by getting those listings while you sleep.

Click here now for Lake Listings it’s 100% FREE and NO OBLIGATION.


Original 2015 Article appears below:

Most buyers are under the impression that the owner of a doublewide or
singlewide on the lake should be handing it over for almost nothing….

Here’s the problem…they are typically on some of the flattest lots
which means that the waterfront land is worth $200K-$350K alone…
AND most sellers KNOW what they have….

Herein lies the problem with that—FINANCING!

Singlewides cannot obtain any financing any longer….
Doublewides require finding a lender which is like finding
a drop of water in the middle of the lake….

So, your options are:
Grab a Home Equity Line of Credit on Your Existing Home,
sell stocks, or dip into your savings—
Cash is King/Queen on these deals because, even
though Sellers know what they have, they are also
becoming painfully aware that most people can’t
buy what they have even if they wanted to….

Pooling cash with family and friends has been a very common
model here, and last year there were about 20 of these deals,
now there are only 8. Buyers are staying in the double and singlewides
for a while then knocking them down and putting cottages and homes
in their places….

Why? In most cases “grandfathered” docks are in place and views
are pretty nice….Of course you would have to get permits for all
of those things and still find out if you could construct as closely to
the lake as the existing home, etc…..

But, don’t be fooled….a bank would require you to take
a waterfront lot loan for these properties and interest
rates are much higher on those…..

But that’s how you do it! Cash is the best bet
at this point…………Think of it as buying a cleared
lot with a well and septic and dock and they are
throwing the trailer in….

Smith Mountain Lake Real Estate | Smith Mountain Lake | Real Estate| | Lake Access | The LEAST Expensive Way to Get on Smith Mountain Lake

Smith Mountain Lake Real Estate | Smith Mountain Lake | Real Estate| | Lake Access | The LEAST Expensive Way to Get on Smith Mountain Lake

Ahhhhhhhh Owning a Place to Put Your Boat in the Water….

LAKE ACCESS WITH A DEEDED BOATSLIP—

Although this is a rare find, these homes have one thing in common–

A Deeded Assigned Boatslip—which means
that you don’t have to rent a place to put
your boat—which is approximately $1,700-$2,500 per year

This means that, even though the home is NOT ON THE WATER
You OWN the Rights to use Smith Mountain Lake–

For an EVEN LESS EXPENSIVE way to use the lake legally
and year-round choose a home that DOES NOT have a deeded boatslip,
but DOES have a community day dock with a community boat launch
so that you may still trailer your boat, to and from your home,
and use it while you are at your lake home.

This may be more in your budget!

Smith Mountain Lake: Last Chance to Make a Winter Deal

winterlakehouse

Just over a month until SPRING!

Yes–You read that right!
http://days.to/spring/2015

So–why is this 37-day mark significant? Easy!
If you’re familiar with football….it’s “the 2 minute warning…”
It’s a reminder that there are only MOMENTS left to scoop
up a winter leftover from an exhausted seller….

What does that mean to you? DEALS!!
But you can’t make Deals unless you Write Offers…
and you DON’T Write Offers unless You’re Pre-Qualified by a Legitimate Lender…

Otherwise…You, as a Purchaser have no Credibility or Leverage….

That being said….a new FHA lower Mortgage Insurance was announced
yesterday, for people that put LESS THAN 20% down…
So! If you don’t have 20% saved up…maybe there is
an FHA product that will work for you—ask your lender…and

if you need a LAKE LENDER, just let me know!

There are another 48 properties under contract as of this past weekend…so
just be aware that properties are selling; despite it being winter….
NOW is the last chance before Spring pricing, to make a Deal Under the Radar…

In fact, a few of you have come to town in the past week….kudos to you!

Unlike the rest of the planet, we have not had one snowflake! 🙂

If you’re pre-qualified and can come to town in February….
I would say…don’t wait….prices will go up soon, as they
have year-over-year for the past 15 years since I’ve been
doing this full-time.

Want to make sure that my list has the head’s up….

Others would be happy to let their customers pay full price….

I’d prefer to give you a heads up so that you don’t have to!

Check with your bank and then, email me noreenhartkern@yahoo.com for a fresh list!
Have a great week!
Noreen

Why forfeit your opportunity to buy a great deal on

Smith Mountain Lake, Virginia?


Price………that’s the most common answer…
“We can’t afford it…”

I guess the problem with that is this…prices aren’t going down….Yes, there have been some “price reductions”, but overall, each class of home, both waterfront and lake access on Smith Mountain Lake have been holding their own and there are average price ranges across the board for all types of homes.

But here’s the Good News!!

Did you ever consider that you might have options? Have you ever considered “Lake Access”?

Well… not just any lake access, but specifically:

“Lake Access with a Deeded Boat Slip”

Why is a “Deeded Boat Slip” so incredibly important and a rare find on Smith Mountain Lake? Well the answer is simple. They simply don’t do that anymore, and haven’t for years!

The reason it’s so important is also simple:

It saves you money in the long run!

Did you know that the average dock rental for a slip each year runs boaters approximately $2,000-$2,700/year just to rent a boat slip???

That’s an absurd waste of money isn’t it?

What if you could own that slip and the home and use the amenities in the community? That would be a “true lake access” model…again, really hard to find on SML…but there are a few left under $300K!

How about this one? This home is located on Indian Pointe in Westlake and has phenomenal year-round views of the surrounding mountains and Smith Mountain Lake plays with the daylight in the foreground!

Click Here to learn more about this amazing lake getaway for sale for only $184,900 with a deeded boat slip, community pool and picnic pavilion, community boat launch and trailer storage…truly a one-of-a-kind opportunity to own a piece of Smith Mountain Lake for so little!

Let me know if you need any additional information!

All the best!

Noreen
