It’s the time of year around Lake Keowee where we have a bit of a lull as kids graduate from various levels of school and then, usually, along with parents they head on a week long vacation to some cool spot. This leads to a couple week slowdown in Lake Keowee real estate activity. We are currently in that slowdown. It may have been exacerbated by the current level of uncertainty, but we expect to see an increase in activity when folks get back to normal. We will be pushing hard to make that happen. 

We were able to close a Lake Keowee interior property this week as well as add a listing that we quickly put under contract. That amount of activity makes for a good week, though we are always looking for great. Buyers are looking in earnest with the goal of getting into that Lake Keowee home around the July 4th holiday. You could help them out by putting your Lake Keowee home or lot on the market (with us of course).

Key to that equation is you guys listing your property with us. The ones of you whose situations have changed, kids have moved, etc. Why not take advantage of this continued seller’s market and get some cash in your pocket. You never know what new opportunities could spring up!

Business keeps on business-ing as we were able to close a $715,000 Lake Keowee waterfront lot this week and visit with a few folks about listing their property soon. As we all know (I know you know) now is the time of year to get your Lake Keowee property on the market. Most buyers want to be in their dream Lake Keowee property before the end of July. If you run all the numbers, you’ll figure out that if you listed your property tomorrow, the best-case scenario would probably be closing by early June. So, the next 30-45 days are a critical time to get your property on the market if you want to get the most eyes on it.

The stock market and put all of your money into Lake Keowee real estate! For a lot of folks Lake Keowee real estate has been a GREAT investment, going so far as to make more money than it costs for them to live on the lake for years. The inventory is currently still low, but now is the time of year when folks are adding their properties to the market at the highest clip. The right Lake Keowee real estate for you could be coming to the market tomorrow and if you aren’t set up on an automatic search you’ll miss it.

It’s been yet another good week for us. We were able to put over $1M in Lake Keowee waterfront lots and put another $5M in property under contract. Those are the kind of weeks we wish for all year long. In fact, just a fraction of those numbers this week would make us quite happy, just as long as we are moving forward!

The one we listed is one we sold leaving the market with a total of 5 Lake Keowee waterfront lots available that have covered docks. That’s far too few. You need to sell your lot, make lots of money, sit on that money for a while and let it grow, then buy another Lake Keowee lot from us in the future – build a house on that Lake Keowee waterfront lot, live in it for a while….wash, rinse, repeat…you get the idea!

We are starting to see more and more houses and lots hit the Lake Keowee real estate market as spring approaches. We’ve had 7 Lake Keowee waterfront homes hit the market in the last week ranging from $1.65M to $4.89M. That’s quite a wide range of possibilities for all you buyers!

The weather has cooled a bit, but it’s still temperate for folks to get out and about. As per usual spring fever abounds, I know we feel it, and we expect our symptoms to increase in severity. There ain’t much better than spring around Lake Keowee!

As I sit here writing this Lake Keowee Real Estate Expert Blog, the temperature is a balmy 79 degrees. That’s a Chamber of Commerce Day for us, especially since it’s February! I’m not foolish enough to think temps will stay like this for long as I expect us to see at least one or two more serious cold snaps prior to spring popping by and saying, “Hello, how’s the family?”. It does bring to mind the idea of spring, though, and the fact that now is the time to get your Lake Keowee real estate on the market!
