The official May data is locked in for the Greater Greenville Area 📊

Active listings increased by 15.4% compared to May of last year, giving buyers more options and reducing the immediate pressure to enter bidding wars. At the same time, the average sales price held at $408,280, with homes closing at an average of 98.5% of their original list price, which indicates that demand remains stable and properties that are priced right are hitting their targets.

Waiting on the sidelines carries the risk of missing out on the right property or missing out on building home equity as values appreciate.

Because real estate trends depend entirely on the neighborhood, text me at 864.346.8621 or send me a DM if you want a look at the numbers for your specific zip code. No pressure, just facts. 🏡

Is the Greenville market finally balancing out?

Everyone is talking about home prices, but the real news in our April data is actually about time and choice. If you’ve been sitting on the sidelines waiting for the market to feel "normal" again, these latest figures for the Greater Greenville area are for you.

Here’s the simple version of what the numbers are saying:

For Buyers: Your leverage is growing.
Active inventory has surged by 21.6%, meaning there are now 6,006 homes to choose from. With the average time on market increasing to 57 days, the pace is becoming more manageable. While well-priced homes still move quickly, this shift generally allows for a more thoughtful approach than we saw last year.

For Sellers: Equity is still on your side.
Despite more competition, the average sales price has climbed to $401,678, a 3.8% increase. Sellers are still capturing 98.7% of their list price on average. The demand is steady, but your pricing strategy now matters more than ever to stand out among the new listings.

The Bottom Line:
We aren't in a "crazy" market anymore; we’re in a strategic one. Success right now depends on having the right data to back up your next move.

Planning a move this summer? Send me a message. I’ll show you how these trends specifically affect the neighborhood you’re eyeing.

I'm very excited and happy for my sellers at 15 Hoedad Drive in Fountain Inn... Under contract in 24h! The market is indicating a bit of a confusing narrative, depending on where you live — if you have questions about your particular neighborhood, let Mary or me help you see the clear path.

I’ll be at 103 Pinebark Lane this Saturday! 🏡

If you don't have plans yet for Saturday morning, come swing by Rock Creek! I’m hosting an Open House from 10 AM to 12 PM, and I’m really excited to show this one off.

This home has such a welcoming charm, but you really have to step inside to feel how much space there actually is. The high vaulted ceilings make the whole place feel so open, and the brick fireplace is such a nice touch for the living room. The primary suite is a total retreat with a double vanity and garden tub, and the kitchen is fully updated with crisp white cabinetry.

It’s also very accessible with a single-level layout and a ramp leading from the oversized wooden deck to that massive, private backyard. Plus, living here means you get access to the community pool just in time for summer!

I'd love to walk you through and hear what you think of the place. Stop by and let’s talk about the neighborhood!

See you this Saturday, May 2:
📍 103 Pinebark Ln, Greenwood, SC 29649
⏰ 10:00 AM – 12:00 PM

Looking for a home that feels almost brand new but without the headache of an HOA? Come hang out with me tomorrow! I’ll be at 3467 Six Mile Hwy in Central from 2 PM to 4 PM, and I’d love to show you around this Craftsman beauty in Chastain Ridge.

This place has so much going for it—over 3,400 sq ft, 5 bedrooms, and a kitchen that’s perfect for hosting. My favorite part has to be the primary suite with those two walk-in closets and the garden tub. Plus, you get that peaceful country feel while staying just minutes from Clemson and the lakes. It’s move-in ready and waiting for you!

Join me tomorrow:
📍 3467 Six Mile Hwy, Central, SC 29630
📅 Saturday, April 18th | 2 PM – 4 PM

Hope to see you there!

February’s numbers are officially in, and there is one big takeaway: Options. 🏡

We currently have over 5,400 homes on the market. That’s a 28% jump from this time last year! If you’ve been feeling frustrated because you couldn't find the right home, things are finally turning in your favor.

The best part? You don't have to race against a hundred other people the second a sign goes up. With homes staying active for about 71 days on average, you actually have the space to do your homework and make a solid move without all that pressure.

Prices are holding steady too (averaging $398k), showing that home values are remaining stable while you explore your choices. We’re simply moving back to a healthy, balanced market where you have the time to make a confident move.

If you want to know what these numbers look like for your specific neighborhood, send me a message! I’m always happy to break it down for you.

Better than new, move-in ready, and low maintenance. 🏡

I’m hosting an open house this Saturday at 454 Fenwick Dr, and you really need to see the pride of ownership here. Most 2-year-old homes lack the extensive improvements this one has—we’re talking custom plantation shutters, crown molding, a striking stone gas fireplace, and even under- & over-cabinet LED lighting in the kitchen.

If you’ve been looking for one-level living and a private outdoor retreat, this is the one you’ve been waiting for. The backyard is a total sanctuary: professionally landscaped with Magnolias and Camellias, a private fenced yard, and a covered, screened-in tiled porch designed for beauty without the upkeep.

Come by and see what "meticulously maintained" really looks like!
