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!

Lake Keowee Waterfront Property Investment Guide 2025: ROI, Market Trends & Expert Analysis Lake Keowee has quietly emerged as one of the Southeast’s most compelling waterfront real estate investments. While larger markets grab headlines, savvy investors are discovering that this pristine South Carolina lake offers something increasingly rare: strong appreciation, consistent rental income, and limited […]

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.

Over the past week we were able to close on a Lake Keowee waterfront lot in the Riverstone community as well as sit down with a couple of folks to talk about the things they’ll need to do before getting their Lake Keowee property on the market. It’s a great time of year to make a list and check it twice (a list of things that you’ve put off around the house or that may need an upgrade to maximize your value when you sell). We can help you with that, giving you an idea of value and where you need to focus for maximum sale ability.

Believe it or not, there are still folks thinking about buying and selling Lake Keowee real estate. We’ve had a couple of tours this week and have closed one property so far with another set to close next week. Outside of that, things have slowed down as folks get into the holiday mood. We do expect to see a burst of activity before Christmas as folks have a bit more time to look at property, even though the hours of usable daylight may not comply.

Slower weeks this time of year allow more opportunities for us to go over advertising, marketing systems, etc. We’re ever striving to create as many eyes as possible on our listings as well as getting as many people as possible to look at them in person. We’re also working hard to create buyer leads for other listings out there. It’s amazing how far we’ve come in 37 years. We were selling real estate on Lake Keowee when there was still such a thing as an actual printed multiple listing book. Yea, we’ve seen a lot of change while doing thousands of real estate transactions.

Let’s get to Lake Keowee business! With the cold comes fewer folks getting on the water and looking for Lake Keowee homes. The key word in that sentence is fewer…not “none”, because here are still plenty of folks looking for the right kind of Lake Keowee property. We were able to put a Cliffs Falls listing under contract over the past few days adding yet another listing on its way to being sold for 2025.
