Bucking The Real Estate Trend-Waynesville and Maggie Valley Real Estate

Can We Limit Landslides in the Mountains of Western North Carolina?

Sliding and slopes have been hot key words in the Asheville Citizen-Times recently, as well as, obviously, in my Haywood County real estate blog. This morning’s publication of the Asheville Citizen-Times features another very informative article about the on-going landslide, slope ordinance and mapping issue controversies; not to mention, the lobbyists. Read: Tough fight ahead for regulating slopes.

Here are more recent and pertinent articles about this ‘hot topic.’

• Sunday’s blog about landslides, with video
• Landslide survivors give mixed views on rules
• Builders worry landslide maps may scare off buyers
• Landslide wiped out home, 30 years of couple’s work
• Homes in harm’s way on many WNC slopes
• Growth continues despite slope law
• Landslides of North Carolina

What are your feelings about regulating slopes, particularly here in Waynesville and Maggie Valley?
