    What does Twitter/X have to say about home buying?

    X, formerly known as Twitter, can be a great place for information, but it can also be a terrible place for misinformation. Well, a great X/Twitter thread popped up on my feed recently discussing things that a first time homebuyer should and shouldn't when house searching. Some of the responses were spot on, and others were... not so helpful. So let's have some fun and talk about the thread and what it got right about home buying... and what it got wrong.

  2. What impact will a Trump Presidency have on real estate?

    What impact will a Trump Presidency have on real estate?

    After 1.5 years of campaigning, we finally know that Donald Trump will return to Washington as the 47th President of the United States. Some people are elated, others are mortified, but wherever you stand on the election results, the question remains: will Trump help or hurt the housing market? There are many possible scenarios for Trump in play - taking over the Federal Reserve, privatizing (again) Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, injecting stimulus into the slumping housing market, creating futuristic cities on federal land, mass deportation of immigrants, etc. But at the end of the day, Trump is going to have to find a way to get mortgage rates lower or else likely none of it will matter.

  3. My Egregious Appraisal Story

    NOV 6

    My Egregious Appraisal Story

    Recently, I decided to do a cash out refinance on two identical duplexes that I own that are located next to each other. A cash out refi is a great way to take advantage of the equity you have in a property without having to sell it, and that's exactly what I hoped to do. Get cash, keep the property, have rental income pay off the mortgage, and everyone goes home happy. Well, all seemed to be going smoothly until the appraisals came in, with one being dramatically different than the other, despite the properties being identical. Never in my career have I seen something quite like this, and it drove me crazy! So I dug into the two appraisals to figure out why they were so different, and after many twists and turns... well, you'll have to listen to find out what happened in this crazy story!

    Helene + elections cause prices to drop and rates to soar

    Mortgage rates have soared nearly an entire percentage point the past few weeks and as a result, September 2024 yielded the first year-on-year decline in the median sales price in Greenville since March 2023. Why is this happening now, and does it mean we're entering a buyers market?

  5. The Four Types of Real Estate Negotiators

    The Four Types of Real Estate Negotiators

    Negotiation is one of the most important aspects for a real estate transaction, and yet many people don't know their negotiation style or that of those they are negotiating with. In the old school of thought, it didn't matter what style the person across the table from you had - you simply negotiated aggressively with them and tried to win the negotiation at their expense. However, in recent years, negotiation tactics have shifted and are more focused on trying to achieve a situation where both parties feel like they have experienced a "win-win," rather than one party feeling like they lost to the other. But you can't do this if you have no knowledge of negotiating styles, so let's talk about the four types of negotiators, how they impact a real estate transaction, and where their strengths and weaknesses lie.

  6. My Crazy Listing Story: the home that had a bit of everything

    My Crazy Listing Story: the home that had a bit of everything

    "Listing agents don't do anything besides put the home on the multiple listing service," is a phrase I hear frequently from people. And while some listings require less work than others, every listing requires many hours of work, and some require literally *weeks* worth of work. So today I tell the story of my listing from this year that has had a little of everything - messed up contracts, "low" appraisals, FHA flip rule issues, issues with engineers reports, missing data plates, etc. I don't even have time to get into every single thing that happened in this transaction, but I'm confident you'll still enjoy my 30 minute rant about some of what happened and will have a better sense of the home selling process as a result.

  7. What to do about OUT OF CONTROL homeowners insurance costs.

    OCT 9

    What to do about OUT OF CONTROL homeowners insurance costs.

    Homeowners insurance premiums have increased dramatically the past 4 years in the US, specifically in the Southeast region of the US, which, coincidentally, is where Greenville is located. Thankfully, SC hasn't suffered the worst of the premium increases when comparing to states like Florida, but with our state getting hit hard by Helene and the possibility of other storms hitting us this year before storm season has come and gone, we can expect insurance premiums to be on the rise in 2025. There's nothing we can do about that, but there are some practical steps you and I can take to ensure that when we insure our home, we aren't paying more than we need to.

    Hurricane Helene Wreaks Havoc on Greenville, SC and Asheville, NC

    I may be on my fourth straight day without power, but that's not going to stop me from reporting from the front lines on the unbelievable and devastating damage caused by Hurricane Helene to the Greater Greenville Area and to Western NC. In this episode, I discuss how Greenville was hit by a 1/100 year weather event, what it means for me and those I know, and what it means for our local real estate market.
