March Land Sales 2011 - Market Update

There were 6 lot/land sales in Garrett County in the month of March.

The sales prices range from $2,900 - $47,500.

Many lenders are shying away fron lot loans, or at least requiring much larger amounts down before offering mortgages. That, coupled with the surplus of homes available for sale in EVERY market across the country, has driven the lot/land market much lower. Acreage prices in Garrett County & Deep Creek Lake are quite low, now, as a result.

Railey Realty has 131 active lot/land properties for sale right now that are priced under $100,000 - there are some good buys for lots in here if you look closely...

Pleasant Valley, Garrett County Maryland

I had someone send me this photo of their family farm in southern Garrett County over the weekend and I was reminded of a Garrett County gem - Pleasant Valley. It's not a town, so you can't find it on the map as an address, but it is a collection of farms, fields, and homes on Route 219 south of Oakland. There is a prevalent Amish population, generations of local farmers and lots of other cool places to drive by and see. My father had a home in the valley for 10 years or so while I was growing up, so I was fortunate enough to have experienced the beautiful sights, sounds (and smells) of this agricultural area. Pleasant Valley lies beneath the Backbone Mountain ridge, so the backdrop of the highest point in Maryland is equally impressive as you take in the beautiful sights and sounds of Pleasant Valley! Take a trip to see the working farms, and stop by one of the many 'shops' that you will encounter along the way. You buy everything from fresh produce and eggs to Garrett County's own maple syrup, baking goods, fresh baked bread & yummy deserts. There are also fun activities like horse drawn carriage rides, the Backbone Mountain ski farm and you can even arrange a trip to see livestock on a Garrett County farm!
