Описание: In this episode of Living Local, we’re in Hendersonville NC sharing local stories, businesses, homes, and real estate insights from across Western North Carolina, including Asheville NC and surrounding areas. Hosted by Ed Frisbee with Frisbee Real Estate.

Special Guest: Fair Nabors Waggoner, City President at United Community Bank in Hendersonville NC



Ed welcomes Fair Nabors Waggoner from United Community Bank, and it quickly turns into one of those conversations that feels like a mix of local insider tips, big-picture market talk, and real community pride. Fair, who serves as City President and the lead commercial lender in Henderson County, breaks down what she actually does day to day. In short, she wears a lot of hats and loves it. From building relationships to connecting people with the right lending experts, she’s the “go get it and bring it back” person who helps make things happen.



They dig into what she’s seeing in Henderson County’s commercial market, including how high interest rates slowed things down, but how activity is already picking back up as rates come down. Fair highlights the growth and opportunity along the Ecusta Trail corridor, plus the steady commercial momentum tied to quality of life, tourism, and business-friendly development across North Carolina.



The conversation takes a fun local turn as Fair talks about what makes Henderson County special beyond real estate: agritourism, apple season traffic on Highway 64, and how orchards and farms have adapted with experiences that draw visitors from all over, especially South Carolina. She also shines a spotlight on an often overlooked economic driver: summer camps. Fair explains how camps quietly fill hotels, pack restaurants, boost local attractions, and even influence people to retire or start businesses here years later.



To wrap it up, Fair shares her go-to spots to eat like Orr’s Family Restaurant, Seasons at Highland Lake Inn, and the always-popular Shine. She also gives visitors ideas for what to do, from hiking and wineries to checking out how the area has evolved while still keeping that classic small-town charm.



And yes, they hit the important stuff too: roundabouts. Fair loves them… when people actually know how to use them.

If you want a better feel for Henderson County’s growth, local lifestyle, and what’s coming next, this episode delivers. Keep living local.
