Cherokee County was recently listed as the 18th fastest growing county in the country. There are many reasons for this with the 2 biggest being low taxes and affordable housing. There is so much development going on in northern Cherokee it is hard to list it all, but I will mention some of the more exciting things coming soon. The Bluffs at Technology Park, located in Canton, is a beautiful 700-acre office park that features professional office and business space in low and mid-rise buildings. One of two new buildings is now completed and the first tenants are moving in this month! Another exciting addition to the Canton area is being billed as the “largest open-air mall in the Southeast.” So far some of the anchor stores are SuperTarget, Kohls, Lowes and JCPenney. Many more will be coming and are slated to open in early 2009. Downtown Canton is also being noted for its Canton Theatre productions and County Arts Center. These are both very active programs with productions and workshops going on all year long. For more information on residential or commercial real estate please contact me - Sue B at 678-549-4949.

Ball Ground Georgia is a little city that is growing quickly. One of the best things about Ball Ground is its location - it is half-way between Canton and Jasper - with easy access to both cities from 575. Canton would be the city of choice to travel to from Ball Ground for medical care, hospitals, shopping and restaurants. From downtown Ball Ground traveling on 575 south would be about a 10 minute trip to Canton. Ball Ground is expecting a renovation of its downtown area soon. In keeping up with the quaint look of the area now - developers will be rebuilding with an eye to keep the historic and small town feel to the city. The area may be a mecca for active adult home buyers soon. Several developments are going up now with plans for golf cart trails, community centers and activities. Of course the area has always been a big draw for families. More house for your money, bigger lots, and good schools have attracted homebuyers to the area for years.

A credit score is used to evaluate how likely a borrower is to repay their loan. Here are a few tips to help you repair or raise a credit score. If you have a high balance on one credit card, and very low balances on several others - distribute the debt across all the cards. Your score is based on the ratio of debt owed to available credit on each card. Spreading the amount owed across several cards will lower your ratios overall. Many consumers will close a credit card when they have paid off the balance. It is better to leave the card open and use it occasionally - again it will help the overall ratio of credit available versus credit debt. The last thing is to watch out for all those “pre-approved” offers you get in the mail. Even though they are advertised as “pre-approved” they will still check your credit report before final approval and impact your score with each hit. Additionally experts recommend to keep your credit card numbers between 2 and 5. Any more than 5 cards can get precarious to manage and control. Feel free to contact me - I can recommend a financial professional who will be happy to provide further information or assistance with your credit history.

Here are 2 ideas to implement in your home that will make a big difference in the “going green” arena. They are simple little things that add up to a lot of savings– economically and environmentally. 1. Compact Fluorescent Light Bulbs. They can last 12x as long as regular and use 50-80% less energy! If every American household replaced one regular light bulb with a C.F.L, the pollution reduction would be equal to removing one million cars from the road! 2. Plastic Bags. They are made from toxic polyethylene and are not biodegradable. They are polluting our oceans with tiny fragments of plastic and beginning to work their way up the food chain. Use canvas or paper bags! Here are two recipes for cleaning fluids that will help your pocket book and your health. Window cleaner: 2 cups water, 1 cup white vinegar & 1 tsp liquid detergent. Furniture Polish: 1/4 cup white vinegar and 1/2 cup olive oil. I have tried the window cleaner and it is great - easy on the hands too! Good Luck!

Cherokee County is getting over 1 million square feet of retail space. Three main centers of development have begun - all are located along the 575 interstate corridor. The shopping centers are expecting to bring in new retailers - many that have never been seen in Cherokee County before. Also restaurants and upscale boutiques will be a part of the construction that is slated for completion in 2008/2009.
The largest of these retail centers will be an open-air shopping mall off of exit 19 on 575. It will be over 800,000 sq feet and is being called the Canton Marketplace. Accessible from GA Hwy 20 and 575 it is already under construction and early openings are expected by Spring 2008. Another great shopping center in the planning stage is The Avenue Ridgewalk. It will be located in S. Cherokee off of exit 8 - generally known as the Towne Lake area. It is too early to know exactly what stores will be opening in this center, but developers are trying to bring in some upper-scale shops, boutiques and restaurants to add to the diversity of what is already available in Woodstock.
The 3rd area of development in Cherokee County is on Sixes Rd - exit 11 off of 575. This area is known as the Bridgemill area or Holly Springs area. Home Depot has already started construction and other stores and restaurants are slated to join in the over 330,000 sq foot retail center. Cherokee Countyis growing rapidly - along with mountain views, rivers and creeks, and Lake Allatoona we will now enjoy several first class new shopping centers. For homeowners and people considering relocation it will definitely add a new level of convenience to have such great retail centers within minutes of home!

Normally when you want to live in a neighborhood with fantastic amenities - you also have to settle for a huge community with hundreds of homes in it. NOT SO with Little Bear Subdivision. The community will consist of only 86 homes built over a total of 159 acres! Once you see the luxurious clubhouse, pool, picnic pavilion w. outdoor fireplace, play park and miles of walking trails - you will have to remind yourself you are in a very small enclave of homes! Little Bear is truly a conservation subdivision - it is a certified backyard wildlife habitat. The homes lean toward Craftsman-style and there are several builders available with a generous variety of floor-plans to choose from. Luxury upgrades and architectural detail can be found in each unique home. Even though you may feel like you are way out in the country - retail and restaurants are minutes away. Large-scale amenities - estate sized lots - scenic surroundings - Cherokee County low low taxes - the time might be right to drive up and let me introduce you to luxury living in a serene and tranquil setting.
