Top Guns Realty

Yes, part of the dynamic duo of Top Guns Realty took a vacation last week. Took the kids down to Florida to visit Grandma and Legoland, Sea World, Key Largo, bowling alleys, fast food restaurants, a golf course or three, and even a fish or three thousand whilst snorkeling. Poor Mike was left to handle […]

We’ve been getting some humdingers around Lakes Keowee and Jocassee over the past few days (humdinger – a storm system characterized by high winds, rain and hail of varying sizes, often causing divergent levels of property damage and can be especially problematic to owners of light weight homes with little or no foundation or a foundation […]

This is what I’m talking about so let’s keep it going! That’s the real estate market and I guess the South Carolina Gamecocks basketball season for both Men’s and Women’s basketball, as well. Quite the boon for the entire state of South Carolina, the new hub of college sports. Who knows by this time next […]

Fantastic news. It doesn’t just feel and look like spring, it is spring! Monday March 20th made it official and boys and girls we are excited! The temperatures will sneak up into the 80’s today and that will start bringing the water temperatures up to a respectable warmth, as well. My kids have been ready to […]

I don’t know, I’m easily confused in my old age, but around Lake Keowee when your Dogwood trees are blooming and they have snow on them does that mean spring or winter? Either way it’s currently cold and the blooms are popping out everywhere. Don’t get me started on the azaleas, let’s just put it […]

The Lake Keowee housing market, that is. If you’ve been waiting to get your $500,000 to $600,000 Lake Keowee waterfront home sold, your time is starts … now! There are only 5 waterfront homes currently available in that price range, and of those only 3 have full-sized docks. We believe there are several reasons for this situation; […]

…of when spring around Lake Keowee used to begin, that is. Driving my kids to school this morning we noticed all of the colorful leaves popping out and I dolefully lamented, ” Back in my day (5 years ago) the leaves didn’t come out around these parts until the end of March and we had this […]

If you haven’t noticed it’s a lot easier nowadays to pick out a property than it used to be. When we first started selling property on Lake Keowee back in the ’80’s (no, not the 1880’s) we had a big topographic relief map in our office, made out of wood looking like a big table/diorama – cutting […]

It’s spring! The trees around Lake Keowee and Jocassee are starting to show their buds and we’re seeing the Daffodils popping out wherever a weed can pop out. Heck, we’ve even test run the jet skis…and by “test run” I mean had a blast! Wow, was there even a winter? There was that one snow […]

The number is 97%. That is the percentage of publishing climate scientists that support the consensus on anthropomorphic (caused by humans) climate change. I agree and so do my shorts. This is the 7th day of 2017 that I’ve worn shorts (I know I’m pushing the season a bit but can you blame me as it […]
