Lake Keowee Real Estate Expert Blog
Lake Keowee area properties can still be purchases using the currently, still, incredibly low interest rates. At present we are looking at interest rates for a 30-year note hovering right around 3%. I can remember when we first got into real estate. A rate below 10% was incredibly good. Now, if the rates moved up to 4%, it’d be a huuuge story. Reality is rates will move up at some point but it hasn’t happened yet which makes it a great time to purchase Lake Keowee real estate!
“Let’s do it!”, you say? Well, currently quite a lot of folks have been doing just that. So much so that there aren’t many sellers left out there. If you do have interest in lake Keowee real estate the best thing you can do is contact us and allow us to set you up on an automatic search so that when that perfect piece of Lake Keowee waterfront real estate hits the market you’ll know sooner rather than later. Then we can hook you up with the skinny before too many other buyers are in on the deets.
How’s business? Great! We continue to close deals. This week it was a week of golf course community closings as we closed on one interior lot in Keowee Key and another waterfront lot in The Reserve. That adds just shy of $1,000,000 in volume to the tally for 2021 putting us over $37,000,000 in closings for the year. We’ll take it, but we’d like and can do more.
But…we need listings! I can’t say this enough, apparently. Think hard about putting your Lake Keowee real estate on the market. You may look back and lament, “I sure wish I’d put my Lake Keowee property on the market in October of 2021.” Don’t be a lamenter. That’s a word right?
