Need Asheville Lender and Agent!

[Joseph Koenig]

My husband and I are new to the Asheville area and we are looking to buy our first property! First step: get a lender and agent (thanks BP). We are interested in getting a "home base" property 3-20 acres in or around Asheville NC and then pick up rental properties as the deals arise. 

Home Base is the tricky one and our primary focus, we are interested in establishing a bona fide farm with value-added products. Gardens, greenhouses, chickens, goats, and a commercial kitchen or room to build a kitchen that could support a food truck or catering company. We love pretty much everything within a half-hour drive of Asheville and are partial to Woodfin, Mars Hill, Marshall and Black Mountain.
