RiverWatch Golf Club and 189 Acres of Residential Land Auctioned to Highest
Bidder on May 6, 2008

Following the Auction of this Tennessee Golf Club Will Be a Reserve Auction of
a Luxury Home


NASHVILLE, Tenn., April 24 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- Located in Sparta,
Tennessee, just one hour from Nashville, the RiverWatch Golf Club along with
189 acres of residential land will be auctioned to the highest bidder on May
6, 2008. Encompassing 6,850 yards of lush tree lined fairways and plateaus,
this 18-hole championship course is challenging yet welcoming to golfers of
all levels.

Completed in 2004, the scenic course sits on Center Hill Lake and offers
patrons a state of the art portable GPS system that can be removed from carts
and positioned anywhere on the course. Other assets to be auctioned with the
RiverWatch Golf Club include: golf villas (2 buildings/6 unfinished units
each) covering four acres, a seven acre Clubhouse site, a pro shop and
restaurant. The 189 acres of residential land being auctioned with the club
consist of development pods. 

"With the country's commercial and residential real estate markets together
seeing historic price declines, now is the time to buy real estate," said
Hilda Allen, President, Hilda W. Allen Real Estate, Inc. "Real estate auctions
are great buying opportunities because bidders set the price for a property,
allowing its true market value to emerge," added Allen.

The auction of the RiverWatch Golf Club is absolute, which means there are no
minimum starting bids or reserve high dollar bids for this property. Hilda
Allen of Hilda W. Allen Real Estate Inc., will auction the property to the
highest bidder, regardless of price on May 6 at 11:00am at 125 Harbour Greens
Place in Sparta, TN.

A three-story, 9,667 square foot home located in the RiverWatch community will
be auctioned immediately following the golf course auction. Stone Ridge House
is not part of the golf course auction. The auction of the house is a reserve
auction, meaning the seller has the right to accept or reject any offer.

Previously listed at $1.3 million and custom built in 2000, Stone Ridge is a
luxury lake-view retreat. With eight bedrooms and baths, the home also boasts
a gourmet kitchen, oversized wood burning fireplace, open decks and glassed in
formal dining area. 

Both the RiverWatch Golf Club plus assets and the Stone Ridge House are being
sold "as-is, where-is," and both properties may be previewed on April 29, 2008
from 12:00am-2:00pm.  Interested buyers must register to bid the day of the
auction and be prepared to make a deposit of 20% of the total sales price, of
which $10,000 must be in the form of a cashier's check.  Buyers are also

close within 30 days. For complete auction details, prospective buyers should
