October 14, 2009: Lake Lanier Reaches Full Pool!
 Lake Lanier reached full pool yesterday morning! Hard to believe it was 18 feet lower in January, and a year ago we were in a Level 4 drought. There's actually water in that little finger of lake that I pass traveling North on Georgia 400 near Pilgrim Mill. I don't think I've seen water there in the last 5 to 6 years. Lake Lanier's full pool status is great news for lake property. Due to the economy and the drought with it's many dried up docks, lake home prices have dropped considerably in the past 2 years. With interest rates and prices still low, and the lake full, now is the time to pick up lakefront property. As activity increases on the lake throughout the next year due to improved recreation and business on and near the lake, prices of these homes will begin to rise again. We'd love to assist you in finding your next home or vacation home on Lake Lanier. Visit our website at www.VanderhoffRealEstate.com to check out the available lake homes for sale.
