When you think of summer, do you think of swimming? We certainly do. Everyone loves to take a dip in the pool or Lake Oconee. Jumping in the water is always a refreshing way to cool off and get a bit of exercise. But, is it safe to swim during a pandemic? It can be. Here's what you need to know:
Our friends at ideal-LIVING magazine recently published a report on the buying trends of retirement and second homes in 2020. It outlines the top reasons people are purchasing these types of homes, how the pandemic has changed their decision process, and the top lifestyle and amenities affecting their buying decisions. The survey results were enlightening.
Are you a homebuyer in the market for a mortgage? If so, then consider yourself lucky. The rates recently dropped to historic lows -- as low as 2.75% for top-tier borrowers on a 30-year fixed mortgage. It's the first time that rates have ever fallen below 3%. Since borrowing is a bargain, savvy house hunters are locking in now.
Who would have thought that having a golf membership in Georgia could be such an asset during a pandemic? While most everything else is closed, the golfing is one of the few activities allowed to continue in our state. Those that have golf memberships here at Harbor Club on Lake Oconee are even more fortunate. Our members not only continue to play, but they also get to enjoy delicious food and drinks from our Clubhouse Restaurant.
We are fortunate to live at a place where we can enjoy multiple outdoor activities that comply with current social distancing requirements. Not only can we play golf on our award-winning golf course, but we can also go boating on beautiful Lake Oconee. There are a few things to keep in mind if you're preparing to head out on the water.
