One thing to do for some idea of what the market is like is look at zillow.com and trulia.com.  I have owned a house at Lake Martin for 15 years but I look at both sites on a regular basis to keep track on the market.  My hope when I retire is to upgrade from my current house to another and knowing the market well will allow me to jump on a good opportunity when I see it.  Seems to me from my long-term viewing that you can find what you are looking for if you are patient.  Am surprised about the $250 psf cost of new construction.  That has to include some pretty upgraded finishes because I would have expected it to be closer to $150 to $175 psf range.
