🚨 **COMING SOON IN HAMLET, NC** 🚨

If you’ve been looking for some land—but you’re not interested in buying a full-time renovation project—pay attention to this one.

📍 **471 S. Grace Chapel Church Road**
🌳 **8.9 acres**

The owners have put a TON of work into this home, and it shows. Inside, you’ll find updated flooring, farmhouse-inspired finishes, custom barn doors, a completely refreshed kitchen with bold blue cabinetry and an updated bathroom that looks like it belongs in a much newer home.

Then you step outside…

⚡ Large wired barn
🏊 Above-ground pool
🔥 Backyard firepit
🌲 Mature trees and plenty of usable space

Nearly nine acres means room for your equipment, hobbies, animals, projects or just some actual peace and quiet. You know—the kind where your neighbor can’t critique your grilling technique from their kitchen window.

Price and full details are coming soon. Want the information before this one officially hits the market? Send me a message.

☕🔑 COFFEE & KEYS 🔑☕

Join us Saturday, September 12th from 4–6 PM at 626 Fairfield Circle in Raeford’s Westgate subdivision for an open house that comes with a side of caffeine and opportunity.

We’ll have fall favorites from Raeford’s own Yeleedos Cafe, snacks on site, and Tiffany Dixon with Cornerstone Home Lending there to answer your financing questions.

And the house? Yeah, it’s bringing receipts too:
🏡 3 bed | 2.5 bath | 1,996 sq ft | finished bonus room
🎨 $5,000 paint allowance or sellers will have the home painted a neutral color before settlement
❄️ Brand new downstairs HVAC for the new owners
🛡️ Transferable home warranty

So pull up, grab a coffee, eat a snack, and come see if this one feels like home.
Because house hunting is a lot less rude with espresso.

Hive Realty Group, as an independant brokerage has only been live since April.

Since then:

🏡 46 combined closings
✍️ 9 under contract
📍 13 active or coming-soon listings
🔑 15 active buyers
🌎 Referrals happening across the country

All with a relatively small group of agents.

This isn’t a brag post.

It’s a reminder.

Yes, the market is slower. Deals are harder. Buyers are cautious.

Listings take more work.

But slow doesn’t mean dead.
It means your skills matter more.
Your follow-up matters more.
Your systems matter more.
And the people around you matter more.

Over here, we teach, coach and mentor.

We talk through deals. Share what’s working. Fix what isn’t. And keep each other moving.

Because agents need more than a logo, a login and a “good luck.”
They need leadership, accountability, training and people in their corner.

There is still a LOT of business out there.
We’re building something special.
And we’re just getting started. 🐝

It’s still hot outside right now, but we all know how fast North Carolina weather likes to switch personalities. ☀️➡️🥶

And when those temperatures start dropping, there are kids right here in our community who may not have the warm clothing they need.

For some families, a jacket, hoodie, pair of leggings, or warm outfit isn’t just another item on the shopping list. Sometimes, not having the right clothing means a child gets sick more often, feels uncomfortable at school, or simply doesn’t go.

That’s why HIVE Realty Group is collecting new and gently used clothing and hygiene products to benefit students at Upchurch Elementary School.

We want to collect everything now, while it’s still warm, so when the cold weather hits, these kids are ready.

We’re looking for things like:

* Jackets & coats
* Hoodies & sweatshirts
* Warm pants
* Leggings for girls
* Long-sleeve shirts
* Shoes
* New socks & underwear
* Hats & gloves
* Personal hygiene products
* And honestly… **whatever warm, school-appropriate clothing you’ve got that still has some life left in it**

If your kids outgrew it before they wore it out, don’t let it spend another winter taking up closet space. Let’s put it to work for a kid who can actually use it.

Clean out the closets. Grab a few extras while you’re shopping. Rally your friends, your office, your neighborhood, your church — whatever your circle looks like.

A small donation to us could make a big difference for a child in our community.

Because taking care of our community isn’t something we do when it’s convenient.

It’s just what we do. 🐝💛

🔥 PENDING — AND THIS ONE FEELS GOOD. 🔥

3029 Eaglecrest Ln wasn’t exactly the easiest listing to under contract.

We were dealing with a higher price point, a slower-than-usual season, and a location that required buyers to really understand the value.

Yes, it’s in the highly sought-after Jack Britt School District — but it also sits between two neighborhoods that have historically sold at lower price points. That can make pricing, appraisals, and buyer perception a little… interesting. 😅

But we stayed patient. We stayed aggressive with the marketing. We kept getting people through the door.

And then…

💥 BAM. MULTIPLE OFFERS. 💥

Not just an offer.

MULTIPLE.

That’s why strategy matters. Sometimes a home doesn’t sell in the first weekend. Sometimes the market makes you work for it. And sometimes you just have to trust the process long enough for the right buyer to see the value.

Huge thank you to every agent and buyer who showed this home. And HUGE shoutout to my sellers for not just blindly trusting me, but getting involved in the process. For shooting me straight and making the necessary adjustments.

🐝 3029 Eaglecrest Ln is officially PENDING!

On to the next one.

🎒 25 backpacks. A whole bunch of school supplies. And one community we’re damn proud to be part of.*🐝💛

Today we had the opportunity to deliver 25 backpacks with school supplies to Upchurch Elementary, along with additional supplies for the teachers who somehow manage to keep the whole circus moving every day. 😂

This one means a little more to me personally.

Hoke County is part of my DNA

I graduated from **Hoke County High School.
My wife graduated from Hoke High.
My kids graduated from Hoke High.

This isn’t just a community where I work or sell houses. It’s home.

We all want our kids to walk into school with the same opportunity to learn, grow, and succeed. Sometimes that simply means making sure they have a backpack on their shoulders, supplies inside it, and people in their community willing to step up when they need a little help.

And we’re definitely not the only ones doing it. There are some incredible organizations and people throughout our community constantly giving their time, money, and energy to our schools.

We just want to do our part.

This year, Hive Realty Group, with Jeremy Casiano spearheading the effort, stepped up to provide backpacks and supplies to students at one Hoke County school and one Cumberland County school.

Today was Upchurch Elementary. 🎒❤️

Because HIVE may sell houses, but community will always be bigger than real estate.

To the teachers, staff, parents, volunteers, businesses, and organizations pouring into these kids every day — thank you.

And to the kiddos headed back to school…

Go learn some stuff. Make some friends. And for the love of God, please try not to lose the brand-new backpack before September. 😂

🏡 Translation guide, volume 2:
"We're not in a rush" ➡️ "We want to move in 3 weeks"
"Price is firm" ➡️ (3 days later) "okay we'll come down $5K"
"Just a few must-haves" ➡️ a 14-item list, including a mudroom
