JRV Realty of North Georgia is back in business!  I’ve been on leave for about a year now while I concentrated on some personal business including selling my own horse farm. Now I’m ready to get back into helping people achieve their real estate objectives.  To that end, JRV Realty is expanding from a one person operation to the addition of two highly qualified real estate professionals – both of whom are active horse people with extensive backgrounds in the real estate industry.

I’m very pleased to announce that Jim and Lisa Sylvia are joining the brokerage. They are owners of a horse farm in Talking Rock/Pickens County having moved from Free Home/Cherokee County.   They have extensive real estate knowledge and can be reached at 770-401-8333, LisaSylvia3@gmail.com, or through their website  https://sylviateam.com.

Whether  you’re buying or selling contact the Sylvia Team to see how they can help you attain your goals.

The Juni Fisher concert in late April was a big success. Juni did her normal excellent performance in front of a packed house. As we say here, she never disappoints. We raised a little more than $5,000 which we have already commenced to distribute to several trailheads in north Georgia. The last few months I’ve been assisting one of our daughters sell her home and buying another. That culminated this past Friday with back to back Closings in the morning and a move-in in the afternoon. Thankfully both Closings went very smoothly. A big thank you to Hartmanlaw who handled both for us. They do a great job there.

As a result I’m once again looking for listings. I’ll be posting a new one very shortly that is an excellent horse property, especially for someone who wants lots of room for the animals and the space to truly enjoy the out doors in a quiet setting. I love horse properties and enjoy working with people in acquiring/selling theirs.

We are proud to be a sponsor of the upcoming Juni Fisher Concert raising funds for our public horse trails in North Georgia. If you’re a trail rider located in North Georgia come enjoy some wonderful entertainment while making a contribution to the maintenance and improvement of our trails.

Just closed on the J&B Farm in Lyerly. The excited new owner bought the farm, equipment, and livestock. It was the fastest close I’ve experienced since I’ve been selling farms. From having a firm agreement to the actual Closing totaled 6 days!

I am now focused on helping a couple of clients find their dream farms. Both are in search of a 100+ acre property, mostly in pasture, located in north Georgia no more than 1.5 hours from the Atlanta area. Both are cash buyers. Got any ideas or possibilities? Contact me at 770-289-7272.

We’ve Been busy the last few months with the horse farm real estate business.  Our efforts culminated last week in the sale of the $2 million Le Mas equestrian estate in Dawsonville. We are currently assisting with an Option to buy a 58 acre horse farm in Rock Spring, GA and closing in on a deal for a 236 acre farm near Summerville. Yet, there is a shortage of affordable horse properties on the market with lots of people looking. If you’re thinking of selling, now is a good time to act on it.  We’ve been selling horse farms for 18 years now. Let us put our experience to use in selling your farm. Give me a call to discuss how we can help. Rich   

Janet and I really enjoy having members of our local saddle club come to our farm for our annual Montana East Trail Challenge. Here are a few pictures taken at the one we ran last month. We had 18 riders and just managed to get it in before the rains hit.

Well here we are half way through 2021 and I’m once again looking for listings. I currently have 3 wonderful farms for sale;  a 50 acre equestrian estate in Dawson County, a 235 acre hay and cattle farm in Chattooga County, and a 60 acre  hay and cattle farm in Pickens County. I like to keep the number of active farm listings that I have at the 6- 8 level because of the dedicated service I provide.  If you’re thinking of putting your farm on the market, please give me a call at 770-289-7272 to discuss how I can help. References available upon request.       

The last 30 days have been very busy helping clients get to the Closing table. During this time the following farms have sold:

Affordable 17 Acre Horse Farm in Talking Rock, GA listed at $349,999,

Impressive Equestrian Estate Dahlonega, GA listed at $1,500,000,

40 Acre Horse Farm in Dewey Rose, GA listed at $525,000.

In addition, I have 2 more farms under contract. I am almost sold out and am looking for new listings! If you’re thinking of selling, please contact me. Selling a horse property is not like selling a home in a subdivision. Contact me to discuss how I can put my skills to work for you.
