    260: Prices continue to fall in Greenville.
    Feb 19 2025
    The Greater Greenville market is seeing price declines for the first time in a while. When you combine that with some of the other metrics that we have access to (like days on market, percent of list price received, etc.) there is no question that the market has shifted strongly towards buyers, especially the past half year. What's going on that's causing this, and can we expect this trend to continue?

  • 259: Do Greenvillians like basements, pools, and golf course homes?

    259: Do Greenvillians like basements, pools, and golf course homes?
    Feb 12 2025
    "People don't want homes with pools," "Basement homes aren't worth as much as other homes," and "People don't like golf courses in their backyards," are all things you hear frequently if you're involved with real estate in the Greater Greenville area of SC. But how many of those things are true? Let's look at the Pebble Creek neighborhood, which has a little of all three of these types of homes, to determine how the Greater Greenville market perceives these three unique types of homes.

  • 258: What needs to happen for mortgage rates to come down?

    258: What needs to happen for mortgage rates to come down?
    Feb 5 2025
    The entire real estate industry has been held hostage by 6-8% mortgage rates the past several years, and while many "experts" predicted they would be in the low 6s or high 5s by now, per Mortgage News Daily, they are currently sitting in the low 7s. Now we're getting headlines about Trump tariffs and their potential impact on the economy, and many are concerned that they will cause mortgage rates to go even higher. But is that a guarantee? And could they actually cause rates to go lower? Yes, but you sometimes need to be careful what you ask for...

  • 257: Why home buyers and sellers disagree on home values.

    257: Why home buyers and sellers disagree on home values.
    Jan 29 2025
    Buyers and sellers of houses perceive the value of real estate in very different ways. In fact, I've found that clients who sell and buy at roughly the same time will frequently use completely different valuation models (not actual models, but the ones in their heads) for when they're selling versus when they're buying! So what are the key differences, and why do sellers and buyers so often tend to not be on the same page? Let's break it down!

    256: Trump's Immediate RE Impact + Final 2024 Market Stats
    Jan 22 2025
    Trump is officially the President of the US, and we are already starting to see some small ripples in the market as a result. But, perhaps more importantly (at least to a data nerd like me), we finally have our final 2024 Greater Greenville Association of REALTORS® market stats to go over, and they point to some very interesting trends that happened in 2024. Which of these trends are likely to continue and which are likely to end up as more of a flash in the pan? Tune in to find out!

  • 255: Busting Realtor Misconceptions

    255: Busting Realtor Misconceptions
    Jan 15 2025
    I hear people talk about realtors all the time in "code," saying things like, "He's aggressive," or "She's not as outgoing as I'd like her to be." The reality is that many people want a realtor who thinks and acts like them, but that can be a really bad reason to hire one.

    So let's have some fun and analyze some of the common statements I hear, both negative and positive, towards realtors, and why people should think twice before choosing to hire (or not hire) a realtor based on those statements/opinions.

    254: How Greenville RE is shifting
    Jan 8 2025
    Greenville real estate is constantly evolving and shifting, but how? Everyone knows lot sizes are getting smaller, but what about garages? What about home sizes? Home ages? Foreclosures and short sales?

    There's a lot that is shifting in our market that we don't talk about often, but we will today! In this episode, Stan breaks down a TON of data from the past 3 years to show how (and discuss why) the Greenville, SC real estate market is shifting.

  • 253: 2025 Bold Predictions for Greenville Real Estate

    253: 2025 Bold Predictions for Greenville Real Estate
    Jan 1 2025
    Happy New Year! It's time for me to make my BOLD PREDICTIONS for 2025, and so in this first episode of the New Year, I discuss:

    1. Where mortgage rates are headed.
    2. If we are going into a recession (or increased inflationary environment) in 2025.
    3. If any more massive changes are coming to the real estate industry, after a crazy year of changes in 2024.
    4. What sort of appreciation (or depreciation) Greenville real estate will experience in 2025.
    5. If membership in the Greater Greenville Association of REALTORS® will continue increasing in 2025 or will start to decline.
    6. If inventory (supply) will continue to climb or will start to go back down.
    7. If pending sales (demand) will continue to increase or will start to drop at some point in 2025.
    8. If more closings will be purchased with cash versus financing.
    9. If Greenville County Council will take more measures to stop development in our area.
    10. If buyers' agents will continue to get paid or if their job is in trouble.
    Please tune in, and let me know what you think I got right (or wrong)!
