Day away from 2026! Around Lake Keowee we will be celebrating with a jacket and a warm cup of something as the temperatures are coming off of that week of spring like weather

It’s here, Christmas 2025! Time to spend quality time with the family before they all head in different directions again. We here at Top Guns Realty hope you have a fantastic holiday season and get everything you want for Christmas.

It’s a bit slow leading up to the holidays, though we do expect to close on a Lake Keowee waterfront lot this week and have another waterfront lot we should be listing soon. The days have been crystal clear and beautiful if not a bit cold for this time of year. We don’t expect too much activity next week. We will probably get one or two folks who are in town for the holidays, dying to get out of the house, who would like to see what’s available. Bring it on!

I’ll bet you’re dying to know how our week went. Well, not that exciting though we did put a Lake Keowee waterfront property under contract AND we’re getting a Lake Keowee waterfront house to sell…I take that back that is exciting! The percentage of folks actively pursuing purchase or sale of Keowee property this time of year is certainly lower and won’t perk up significantly until the March/April time frame BUT now is a great time to be shopping for that Keowee property for this very reason! The field is less crowded, just like shopping for Christmas presents in September.

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.

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.

Enough about having fun, back to work. We were able to add another great Lake Keowee waterfront home to our listing book over the past week. Check out 486 Cardinal Ln. Waterfront Lake Keowee home not in a subdivision, though it still has some restrictions. It’s located close to town and has a nice, gentle slope to the Lake (covered dock, jet ski buoys, lift, the works!) We were also able to close a Lake Keowee waterfront home as well as a waterfront lot. We’re just like a freight train, delivering the goods effectively and efficiently and totally unstoppable!
