Ready for a real estate conversation that puts people before transactions and data in service of real decisions? We sit down with broker Savannah Price of Elite Realty, who turned a “you’ll never make it” moment into a career helping hundreds of families buy, sell, invest, and plant roots across East Tennessee and Western North Carolina. From first homes to new construction, multifamily, commercial, land, and renovations, Savannah brings a calm, practical approach that keeps clients focused on what matters most. We dig into persistent market myths, including the idea that a housing crash would make buying easy again. Savannah breaks down why price dips rarely arrive without painful trade-offs like job losses and tight credit, and why growing regions like Knoxville continue to build equity. Instead of waiting for perfect conditions, she offers smarter paths: full pre-approval, realistic must-haves, strategic negotiations, and rate tools like buydowns and potential future refinances. For sellers, she shares sharp advice on pricing, presentation, and planning the next move before the first showing. Savannah also gets candid about challenges—being young and female in a construction-heavy space—and how deep knowledge wins respect on job sites and at the closing table. Her “cruise ship director” mindset keeps the fun parts of home shopping afloat while the engine room—title, lending, inspections, and repairs—runs on schedule. Along the way, we trade local intel, from Smokies outings to Sevier County holiday magic, because community context shapes better choices than headlines ever will. If you’re exploring a move, investment, or sale, you’ll leave with clear steps, grounded expectations, and a reminder that real estate is about life transitions, not just line items.
