What to check on a corridor home

Power on this side is mostly Sawnee EMC. Ask which water and sewer provider serves the street; the two public systems are the Etowah Water & Sewer Authority and the City of Dawsonville. Newer subdivisions often have covenants, so read them before you plan a fence, a shed or a rental.
