Top Guns Realty

Around Lake Keowee, we bypassed the fun stuff and went straight to the un-fun stuff. Ice…it coats the trees and breaks limbs onto power lines and causes power outages. Currently our office is powerless, but fortunately we have power and internet service at home. I know how disappointed you’d be not to get this Lake Keowee real estate expert blog!

Well, the future ice/snow event hasn’t slowed us down yet as we were able to put a Lake Keowee waterfront lot under contract and are working diligently to put another tract of land under contract. We’re also putting the final touches on a couple of new listings we plan to put on the market soon (ice/snow could cause some delays there).

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.

The rain and time of year have put a damper on Lake Keowee real estate activity as we’ve noticed a drop in calls over the past week. We were able to put a Lake Keowee waterfront lot under contract and we continue to see activity on our existing listings, but as to be expected much less than what we’d see in July.

October has been a great month for us as we’ve closed just shy of $9M in Lake Keowee waterfront real estate. It’d be great if November and December were as good, but folks just don’t buy as much Lake Keowee real estate this time of year as they do during the summer. That doesn’t mean there aren’t still buyers in the market. In fact there are quite a few looking for just the right property.

Fantastic week last week as we were able to close $8M in Lake Keowee waterfront homes. That’s putting the pedal to the metal. We’re so proud that our sellers and buyers put their faith in us to get the job done for them (and have been for over 35 years). Getting paid for what you do is great and necessary, but the satisfaction of making folks happy is even better.

People are still looking and buying in earnest. Inventory remains low in many categories, and we need your help to fill that inventory up to appropriate levels. Now may be the perfect time for you to put your Lake Keowee property on the market. Give us a call, we can guide you through the decision-making process.
