Around Lake Keowee, we bypassed the fun stuff and went straight to the un-fun stuff. Ice…it coats the trees and breaks limbs onto power lines and causes power outages. Currently our office is powerless, but fortunately we have power and internet service at home. I know how disappointed you’d be not to get this Lake Keowee real estate expert blog!

Well, the future ice/snow event hasn’t slowed us down yet as we were able to put a Lake Keowee waterfront lot under contract and are working diligently to put another tract of land under contract. We’re also putting the final touches on a couple of new listings we plan to put on the market soon (ice/snow could cause some delays there).

A good week as we were able to put a Lake Keowee waterfront home and lot under contract. That’s just shy of $2.5M in volume, we’ll take that on any winter week around Keowee regardless of the temperatures. We are also working on two new home listings we’ll be bringing on over the next few weeks. Folks are starting to think about getting their properties on the market around the March/April time frame in order to take full advantage of the spring selling season.

Year over year, there were fewer Lake Keowee waterfront lots sold. 95 in 24 and 86 in 25. BUT the average sales price went up by around $84K. $615,569 in 24 vs. $701K in 25. The inventory of lots by the end of 2025 was very low and as we start 2026 it remains that way. As for houses, we went from 171 sold in 2024 to 192 sold in 2025 AND the average value of the homes went up by $51K. 2024 $1,995K vs 2025 $2,006K. Taking Top Guns Realty, Mike and Matt Roach out of the whole, we were able to sell more units and an additional $5M in volume year over year.

Day away from 2026! Around Lake Keowee we will be celebrating with a jacket and a warm cup of something as the temperatures are coming off of that week of spring like weather

It’s here, Christmas 2025! Time to spend quality time with the family before they all head in different directions again. We here at Top Guns Realty hope you have a fantastic holiday season and get everything you want for Christmas.

It’s a bit slow leading up to the holidays, though we do expect to close on a Lake Keowee waterfront lot this week and have another waterfront lot we should be listing soon. The days have been crystal clear and beautiful if not a bit cold for this time of year. We don’t expect too much activity next week. We will probably get one or two folks who are in town for the holidays, dying to get out of the house, who would like to see what’s available. Bring it on!

I’ll bet you’re dying to know how our week went. Well, not that exciting though we did put a Lake Keowee waterfront property under contract AND we’re getting a Lake Keowee waterfront house to sell…I take that back that is exciting! The percentage of folks actively pursuing purchase or sale of Keowee property this time of year is certainly lower and won’t perk up significantly until the March/April time frame BUT now is a great time to be shopping for that Keowee property for this very reason! The field is less crowded, just like shopping for Christmas presents in September.
