The Mountain Conservation Trust of Georgia Conservation Buyers program links conservation-minded buyers with properties on the market that are under a lasting conservation agreement or will be placed under such an agreement at the time of sale. This program enables community members who share our goal of protecting North Georgia's natural landscape to actively participate in, and directly benefit from, land conservation. This program informs potential buyers of ecologically valuable properties for sale and provides the appropriate contact information. Please consider the inestimable natural value of each listed property. If you are interested in a specific property listed here, please contact The Mountain Conservation Trust of Georgia

How does the Conservation Buyer Program work?

Properties can find their way to a conservation buyer in one of two ways:

1. A landowner sells property that has already been protected with a conservation easement held and monitored by The Mountain Conservation Trust of Georgia or another qualified land trust or public agency. The conservation buyer recognizes that the property will always be restricted to uses compatible with the conservation values of the property.

2. A landowner sells property to a conservation buyer. The buyer works with The Mountain Conservation Trust of Georgia or another land trust to place a perpetual conservation restriction on the property. The conservation restriction is held and monitored by The Mountain Conservation Trust of Georgia or another qualified land trust or public agency.

How do I participate?

In the left column is a list of available properties that we believe are worthy of conservation. These properties are on the market and their owners have agreed to post information about them here. We join these landowners in hoping that these postings will attract conservation-minded buyers
