New Build Smoky Mountains

[Peter Castrianni]

I am pursuing doing a new build in the Pigeon Forge / Sevierville / Gatlinburg. Any recommendations for a realtor who is very knowledgeable with land and the area to help me find land to build on? Any tips? Areas to zero in on and areas to avoid? HOA or no HOA? Better to find something with access to city water or just expect to drill a well? Any test or anything that has to be done to the land before closing? First time building so any advise is appreciated.
