Who needs a foreclosure? Right not there are amazing opportunities to buy lakefront or near Lake Wylie (and Lake Norman). I mean really, really good deals ~ take a look at this group of homes in River Hills (Lake Wylie) that are priced at least 20% the average $/square foot! Now price per square foot is by no means the only reason to buy a home BUT these home price levels are indicative of the amazing home values** we are seeing right now on Lake Norman and Lake Wylie two of Charlotte’s premier areas.

Rhonda lived at Lake Wylie for ten years and has just found some incredible lakefront bargains too ~ drop her an email for more information. Or set up your own Lake Wylie or Lake Norman home search by clicking SEARCH HOMES above and using area #15 for Lake Wylie or #13 for lake Wylie

Lakes Norman and Wylie keep Charlotte in the swim

August 26th, 2008 categories: Charlotte Lake Living | we have two!, Charlotte Lifestyle

Our plucky Blake Garvin and her hubby Johnny love uptown Charlotte and their beloved home neighborhood Plaza Midwood more than anything! So what does it take to pull her away from home? For one~  Lake Norman “tie ups”  on a summer afternoon!!

From Blake…

“So here’s the scoop...Lake Norman Tie Ups kind of under the radar….so we meet at the designated marinas around 11:00am to get the boats gassed up and head out to the ‘tie up’ which is about 5-10 minutes of drive time from Holiday Marina (Exit 28 off I77). If you are headed out there, make sure to have your bumpers ready to tie with other anchored boats from around the lake. On an average Saturday, there are close to 50 – 100 boats out in the middle of the cove playing their music and enjoying the beautiful  lake Norman weather. Once tied up with one another, people blow up their floats and jump on in – meeting everyone floating around them. This is the place to surely see some tan Charlotteans! This event starts around mid May and goes through mid September or so. If you are up for meeting some new friends, this is the place to do it in the summer…..

Blake, you are so right the amazing thing about Charlotte is we are surrounded by natural fun whether it be 2.5 hours to the cool mountains, 3.5 hours to the Charleston beaches or right here half hour north or south to Lake Norman or Lake Wylie ~ Charlotte is convenient to all. And did you know Charlotte has on average 214 days of sunny/partly cloudy conditions and lake-friendly weather from April till October!

And just to whet your Charleston SC appetite…sunset in the low country!
