The weather around Lake Keowee has been utterly perfect! Incredibly gorgeous days with ideally cool nights. The sky is cobalt blue with clear, long-range views (If you have a Lake Keowee home with long views take some pictures – when it comes time to list, they will be weapons at your disposal!). In the morning the mists rise off the lake creating Robert Frost-like picturesque scenes. Man, we love this time of year!
A good end of October week for us here at Top Guns Realty as we added two Lake Keowee interior homes, 123 Summit Pine in Cedar Creek and 4 Commodore in Keowee Key. Both homes fit great spots in their respective listing categories with Commodore being the lowest priced home in Keowee Key and Summit Pine having a great long-range view with a boat slip in the community boat slip area. We’re excited about the prospect of them going under contract soon!
We need plenty more great listings like those! Right now is a great time for shooting videos and pictures. Let’s meet and discuss if now is a good time for you to list!

This is a much more savvy way – you have it in writing, providing you even more leverage when making offers and during negotiations.)
