Plantations

There are only about 250 “real” plantations in Georgia and South Carolina. Some are more than 200 years old and have remained in the same families for generations. These wonderful estates average about 4000 acres in size and many are operated for quail hunting, farming and timber production.

The value of plantation lands varies significantly depending on a variety of tangible and intangible factors such as size, location, land types, improvements, timber value, beauty, history, game populations and so forth. Sales prices, therefore, reflect a wide range of attributes, but are less influenced by extraneous factors such as the stock market or interest rates. Plantations rarely come on the market, and they are usually highly sought after.
