    Episode 274 - Steven Zellman

    Thursday, August 13 | Discussing Golf, Baseball, and Rentals We’re joined by Steve Zellman, who worked the tournament as a marshal and somehow landed on a tee box with no spectators, just players, police escorts, and a job that can’t be missed. He breaks down the paddle system, the crosswalk control, and why wind turns a “volunteer role” into a test of focus. The most human moment comes when a struggling golfer hits rock bottom and literally breaks down, reminding us how thin the line is between composure and collapse. We talk about why rentals matter, how consistent move-in and move-out attention creates real trust, and why that relationship often becomes the pipeline to a future sale. We also share this week’s Hamptons market stats, including contracts, dollar volume, a wave of new listings, and what ongoing low inventory means for buyers, sellers, and renters planning their next move on the East End. Finally, we detour into the modern sports card boom: limited print runs, grading, high-priced hobby boxes, and the rush of pulling a rare card that could be worth five figures. We wrap with weekend picks, including Wolffer Estate Vineyards, a Westhampton Beach show, Ellen’s 5K, and a quick restaurant answer that lands without hesitation.  About Happening in the Hamptons Real Estate Podcast Happening in the Hamptons is powered by Saunders & Associates, the #1 locally owned real estate brokerage in the Hamptons, and Hamptons.com, the Hamptons’ leading lifestyle brand for what to do, where to go, and what’s happening across the East End.

    Episode 273 - Jackie Lowey

    August 6, 2026 | Discussing Hidden Communities In The Hamptons Jackie Lowey joins us during one of the busiest stretches of the Hamptons summer to talk rentals, real estate, and what happens when August suddenly feels like it arrived overnight. We look at July versus August demand, last-minute rentals and extensions, and what it actually takes to turn around a lease quickly when time matters. We also dig into something that doesn’t always translate through an online listing: the Hamptons’ many micro-communities. Jackie shares how amenities like community tennis, bay beach access, and private neighborhood settings can shape both lifestyle and value. Plus, we break down the latest Hamptons real estate market stats, including contracts, new listings, and overall inventory. We wrap with what’s happening around town, from East Hampton Library’s Authors Night to restaurant talk and a little appreciation for the East End community at the height of summer.

    Episode 272 - The Julie Crowley Team

    July 30, 2026 | Discussing Upcoming Real Estate Opportunities in Quogue The Hamptons can feel like two summers at once: the one you planned for, and the one that’s already sprinting toward August. This week, we are joined by the Julie Crowley Team and to break down what’s happening right now across the Hamptons real estate market, from new listings and “coming soon” opportunities to the weekly contract numbers that show just how fast properly priced homes can move. We spotlight a standout East Quogue property at 9 Walker Court, a newer home that checks the lifestyle boxes buyers keep asking for: radiant heat, smart features, a pool, open-concept living, and even bay access via an easement down to the creek. We also talk about the East Quogue and Quogue “brand” as a quieter, easier alternative that still keeps you close to beaches, marinas, village shopping, and the Jitney. If you’ve ever driven past an exit because it didn’t say “Hamptons,” this part is for you. Then we get concrete with market data and strategy. This week shows 31 contracts from Westhampton to Montauk and roughly $167M in dollar volume, with new listings and in-contract activity keeping overall inventory tight. That tightness doesn’t give sellers a free pass to overprice, though. We explain why today’s comp-savvy buyers often wait for the price to land in the right zone, and how too much time spent on the market can create the wrong story even when the house is great. We also connect the dots between a hot rental season and the steady pipeline of renters who decide it’s time to buy. We wrap with an East End weekend guide, including Stone Creek Inn’s anniversary and Monday special, DJ nights at The Clubhouse, East Hampton Library Author’s Night, Montauk options, and the local fire department carnival.

    Episode 271 - The Jennifer Wilson Team and Josh Brussell

    July 23, 2026 | Discussing Hero Volley and Montauk Real Estate We’re joined by a packed group, including Josh Brussel and the Jennifer Wilson Team, to preview Hero Valley’s Montauk beach volleyball week, bringing Olympic and pro athletes to town with free public events, music, food, and an up-close chance to meet the players.  We dig into the mission behind it: raising money for East Hampton’s Junior Lifeguard program and supporting the next generation of strong ocean swimmers. Josh also breaks down the clinics, the welcome party, and the Pro-Am tournament format, where locals, lifeguards, and visiting talent share the sand. Then we switch gears to the Hamptons Real Estate Market  Report data for the week of July 14, 2026. We spotlight a Montauk opportunity at 64 Fairview Avenue with a price reduction to $1,495,000, discuss what “entry level” really means in Montauk, and share a weekly market snapshot from Westhampton to Montauk including new listings, homes in contract, dollar volume, and why the $1M to $2M band stays so competitive.  If you care about Montauk lifestyle, Hamptons housing trends, or smart timing as we head toward late summer, you’ll leave with a clearer read on what’s happening now and what to watch next.
