Before helping folks buy and sell real estate in the Georgia and North Carolina mountains, I practiced law, specifically civil litigation, in my home state of Florida for over a decade.
Although financially rewarding, the practice of law was not a passion for me. While still a practicing attorney, I began to invest in real estate in the beautiful mountains of Northeast Georgia and Western North Carolina.
Ultimately, I followed my passion and moved to the mountains and started helping folks buy and sell real estate. I love the mountains and helping folks here!

"Our property was on the market for almost 2 years before we decided change to Black Bear Realty and Rick - he and his team sold the property within a year and were great to work with - wish we had gone with them at the start! Highly recommend Black Bear Realty and Rick Andrews."
"Rick Andrews is a straight shooter with first class knowledge and experience, and a top shelf staff - I could not have hoped for a better selling experience."
"Rick Andrews contacted us about doing a market analysis on our home as the demand for homes in our area was high. From start to finish, he was professional, efficient and very knowledgable. This was by far the easiest real estate transaction we have ever experienced. I highly recommend Rick if you are looking for an experienced seasoned real estate agent!"
