Real estate and politics are colliding. This episode explores how South Carolina’s governor race, insurance reform debates, housing affordability policies, and even global conflict could influence the Greenville housing market. From property taxes to mortgage rates, several forces outside real estate may end up shaping the market in 2026.

Selling in 2026 is not “list it and relax.” This episode breaks down 10 rules for Upstate sellers, including the real competition (hint: new construction), why buyers are extra picky, when open houses actually help, and what not to say if you want offers.

Buying in Greenville in 2026 is not the free for all people remember, but it is also not a buyer’s paradise. This episode lays out a 10 point home buying guide built for today’s reality, including why the market feels like a soft seller’s market, why home sale contingencies are getting rejected, and why Greenville reacts fast when mortgage rates move.

Two winter storms shut Greenville down and delayed closings, but the market did not collapse. New listings stayed positive, inventory jumped, and prices climbed again. So did the storms really slow the market, or just pause it? January’s numbers tell a more interesting story.

I connect the dots between recent local, state, and national signals—and none of them point toward better housing affordability. I break down how impact fees, resistance to new development, and continued growth all push prices higher in Greenville, and why waiting for prices to fall may not be realistic.

Snow shut Greenville down, but the real ice might be coming from D.C. This episode looks at Fed shakeups, bond market moves, and behind-the-scenes decisions that could nudge mortgage rates without warning. Rates matter—but who controls them matters more.

I go on a blunt rant about a misconception I keep hearing: that home prices can magically fall without more supply or lower rates. I break down why a 2008-style crash doesn’t match today’s fundamentals, why “waiting for the apocalypse” is a risky plan, and how real affordability changes actually happen. Then I get practical—walking through realistic paths buyers can consider instead of doom-scrolling for a crash that may never come.

In this episode, Greenville’s December market stats—and there are a few surprises. I walk through why year-end activity surged, how pending and closed sales behaved in ways we normally never see in December, and what rising days on market, tightening inventory, and improving affordability could mean heading into 2026. The big question: is this a one-month anomaly, or the early signal of a real shift toward sellers?
