Let me share some of the really great things people are saying about The Goebel Team.  Here are just a few of the reviews we’ve gotten in the last few months and I’ll start with my own!  And yes, I am biased but I’m allowed to be; at least that’s what I’m going with anyway!

If you are looking for a home or land or if you need to sell your property, look no further- Mick and Jane Goebel can make it happen for you!! 
•  "Mick and Jane have been my family's realtors for years. They helped my parents purchase their mountain home many years ago & then over the past few years have also helped my husband and me find the perfect home for our family. They have truly been a blessing to us! We were relocating from another state and my husband travels for work, so much of the searching was done solely by me. They were right there by my side the entire way, offering advice and helping in any way that they could. We could not have had a better experience! They are extremely genuine people, who are also very professional and knowledgeable as well. We highly recommend them!"
• They are excellent at what they do and fun to work with.
• Bought our house from them..Great team to work with!!!
• …knowledgeable plus good service with a pleasant attitude
• He (Mick) and his friend fixed up house and got materials for house.  They gave good advice on what to do when a buyer breeches contract.  Very Happy!!  Thank Y'all!!!

When A House Becomes A Home

When A House Becomes A Home

Underneath all the paperwork and the contracts, after all the phone calls, inspections, and late night reviews, there is someone working for you – that person is your Realtor!  You need a Realtor on your side who takes YOUR home purchase serious – and personal!  You need someone with knowledge and experience but also someone with a heart!  After all, a house only becomes a home, YOUR HOME, after you move in, unpack and make it your OWN!  That house that you’ve just bought will not only be a dwelling for you to have shelter in, but once you have it set up the way you like with all your personal belongings, it will become a HOME! Your new home will see all the wonderful joys of family & friends, warm winter fires, summer cook-outs, beautiful sunrises & sunsets, love, laughter & fun along with so many other memory-making occasions.   

You deserve to have someone working for you that wants you to have that house just as much as you do – someone that will do everything within their power to make that happen.  And when it does, will call you and cry tears of joy WITH YOU as they congratulate you on getting the home of your dreams!  

Buying a home is such an exhilarating experience.  A home tells a story- a story about the people that live in it.  You’ve heard the expression, “If these walls could talk…” – we would love to hear your stories!  We’ve all got them!  I’ve written mine below.  After reading it, won’t you share your story with us?  We can’t wait to hear it!

My Story of Many Yards

As a child, I only remember living in one house, a little white single wide mobile home located at Rt. 2, Box 425, Murphy, NC 28906. I lived there for 17 years. We moved there when I was only 2 years old and I left when I married at age 19. As an adult, I have had 23 addresses. Some of those are more memorable than others. One home in which I have beautiful memories of is the second home we ever bought. It was a brick house with beautiful landscaping, mature, as the realtor called it. It was a three bedroom, 2 bath home in a lovely neighborhood on a quiet street. It was right on the corner of Julia Lane and Pebble Creek in Toccoa, Georgia. Our children were 9 and 13. I loved watching them play from the kitchen window. We had a huge deck that was so inviting on cool spring mornings. It was a coffee drinking deck for sure. Many plans were made on that deck. My husband and I loved to rock and talk on that deck until long after the sun had set. Not all the plans that were discussed were fulfilled, but memories were made, nevertheless.

Each home, each address, and indeed, each yard, has many stories to tell. Each unique and each one is just as special as the other. The home we now live in has its own stories. Our boys are now grown and so this house has witnessed memories of a different kind. They have included others, not just our family of four. Our boys brought home girls and made memories of dating, dinners, class rings, football games and things that either don’t include their father and me or include the four of us and then some. This house has witnessed the first born leaving the nest and flying off to start making memories of his own. This house is the first home that the yard really wasn’t used much at all. This yard hasn’t seen the forts being built or the trees being climbed. This yard, with its grown up mess in the back, doesn’t have the trails worn through it or holes leading to China. Yes, this home has seen different memories – memories of graduations, weddings and even grandchildren. The walls of this home will tell the whole story, from little boys to grown men. The cycle is now going on with them, but as for us, I hope to make many more plans with my husband and see many more dreams fulfilled.
As I look back on these homes, the thing that strikes me most about all of them is how different each one is, yet how much they are the same. They are all stories of plans, dreams and memories…and of family.
