Default Land in Knoxville area
Specifically 5 to 10 acres south and west to be near work and family.
needs to be flat to support a large workshop and home.

Zip codes of desired location
37801, 37737, 37742 and some of the eastern 37774, 37772

Have a real-estate agent, going through market place and driving around looking for signs and talking to folk. Talking to everyone we know to hopefully catch something without a bidding war from the western transplants.

Budget 250k

Thank you!

My brother has a cabin on Lake Soddy Daisy. It is positively AMAZING!!
I live in sunny Florida, but definitely looking for retirement property in that area.

Blount County! Way cheaper taxes than Knoxville. Plus an absolutely beautiful view of the mountains.

We love it out here. Moved into a spec home off Morganton road back in 18.

Ended up going under contract for 9 acres in Walland, nice spot on a hill with room for a shop and house. Prolly 2 years away from it all being done but close on the property July 31.
