About Us

In 1979, my wife and I were searching for a great place to build a weekend getaway. We found this in the North Georgia mountains. We built the perfect weekend cabin in 1980 which both family and friends enjoyed for many years. In 1994 I retired from my business in Atlanta, and we built our retirement home here. There was no question of where we were going to retire as we had spent a great deal of time in this area and knew the great opportunities this part of Georgia has to offer, as well as the good people who live in the area. As I am not the type to just sit and enjoy the beautiful long range mountain views, trout streams and the abundant wildlife in the area, I started my 4th career path in real estate. This was over 13 years ago. The last 12 I have achieved sales in the multimillion dollar range and am now a life member in this club.

Mark Congdon

Our son Mark, after leaving the Coast Guard, joined Home Depot, and had a great career in middle management. He retired in 2006 and having many memories of great times in the mountains, decided to move here. This decision was great, as not only did we have his family close to us, Mark also joined me in my real estate business.

Mark has brought not only an inexhaustible amount of energy, but the ability to give new insight into the real estate business. His ability to work with people and listen to their wants is refreshing in this business of selling. This ability coupled with my years of in depth knowledge of the Ellijay/Blue Ridge areas, has allowed us to offer a tremendous ability to help folks like you find the property of your dreams.

Our commitment to you is that both Mark and I will listen to exactly what real estate needs you are searching for, and with our knowledge of both the area and the properties that are available; assist you in finding that property of your dreams. Please do not hesitate to contact us to answer any question in the financing, property acquisition, or specific real estate questions.
