✅ In-ground pool
✅ Large 2-car detached garage

Ever feel like every decent house is already pending by the time you see it?
You’re not just imagining it. Housing inventory is still low in Bedford County.

Inventory is just the number of homes available for sale at any given time. When inventory is low, buyers have fewer options to choose from. That can mean more competition, quicker decisions, and needing to come in strong when the right place hits the market.

For sellers, that can be good news. With fewer homes competing against yours, a well-priced property in Bedford County can stand out fast and attract serious interest.

For buyers, it doesn’t mean you can’t find a home, it just means you need to be prepared. Pre-approval in hand, ready to make a move when the right one comes up.
The market is still moving. You just need a smart plan. 📲

We’re excited to share that as of today, The Lincoln Motor Court has officially changed hands.
As the new owners, we’re committed to preserving the charm and experience that make this place special, while thoughtfully caring for it into the future and would like to thank Lucas Steinbrunner for his stewardship over the past few years!

The Lincoln Motor Court is especially meaningful since the connection runs deep.

Avery's great-great-grandfather (Thomas Mitchell) helped to establish the motor court in the 1940s and generations of Avery's family grew up spending time here, making this a true full-circle moment for him.

For me personally, operating a vintage motel has always been a dream of mine.
Through my background in hospitality, short-term rentals and management, we truly hope to further the legacy of The Lincoln Motor Court and create something incredible. Great things are coming!

For our guests and the local community, we plan to continue as normal with hopes of year-round operation.
Please expect some updates/delays with the booking process and website as we transition everything over the weekend.

Thank you for welcoming us - we’re excited to be here!

- Kyle & Avery
