Beyond the 'For Sale' Sign: Navigating Today's Real Estate Market

• George Real Estate Group

What happens when your home doesn't sell as quickly as you'd hoped? Across Western North Carolina, a growing trend of "accidental landlords" is emerging – homeowners who pivot to renting when their selling plans stall. But before you hand over the keys to tenants, there's much more to consider than just collecting monthly rent checks.

The George Real Estate Group unpacks this phenomenon against the backdrop of today's evolving market conditions. Despite headlines suggesting market crashes, Henderson County's real estate landscape tells a different story: steady average home prices around $540,000, approximately 126 single-family homes selling monthly, and days on market increasing from 20-30 days to a still-healthy 60 days. This isn't a market in free fall – it's simply adjusting to a more balanced rhythm.

For sellers contemplating the landlord route, we explore the hidden costs that often surprise first-time landlords: insurance premiums typically 25% higher than standard homeowner policies, property management fees averaging 10% of rental income, maintenance responsibilities, and the financial impact of vacant periods between tenants. These considerations transform what seems like a simple backup plan into a significant business decision requiring careful evaluation.

Strategic pricing remains the most effective approach for sellers in today's market. With inventory levels at five months (compared to over two years during 2010-2011), properly priced properties continue attracting buyers. Your listing's first 24 hours represent the critical window for capturing buyer attention – standing out from similar homes through professional marketing, photography, and competitive pricing creates the conditions for success even in a shifting market.

Whether you're celebrating a growing family, navigating a job relocation, or managing a loved one's estate, we approach each situation with the understanding that real estate happens around life's most significant moments. Connect with us for a confidential consultation to discuss your unique circumstances and develop a strategy tailored to your specific needs.

So much to be thankful for and grateful to be here with you bringing you positive news. Can you believe we're in September? Wow, the time flies. When you're having fun and talk about having fun, I hope if you were participating in the Apple Festival and got to enjoy that what a glorious weather weekend it was and getting to see all your all 300,000 close friends and family and neighbors that came out. And it's what an incredible undertaking by the committee, by the city, by all the support and the community and the volunteers and what an undertaking, all the entertainment.

Speaker 1:

I talked to a number of the apple growers that were at the Apple Festival and a number of them said they had record number sales, I mean, and a number of them had sold out, in some cases some midday and they had to go replenish their, their stock, and just tremendous outpouring. You know, I'm not sure how they track how many people are there. I am aware of technology. I'd heard about what they'd actually done down at the Swamp Rabbit in Greenville County where they actually track the cell phone in Greenville County, where they actually track the cell phone usage and you can actually see is it local users using the Swamp Rabbit? I'm sure they're going to be employing something like this for the Acusa Trail, but not to go big brother on you. But they know you're able to see people visiting. How many people are coming in just by cell phone technology? Are they coming from out of the state, inside the state? Are they coming from outside the country, people visiting the area? But you know I had a number of people say, well, how do you know there was, you know, two 300,000 people and I'll, we'll find out that answer.

Speaker 1:

But again, congratulations to the incredible staff and volunteers and the committee and everybody that pulled off the Apple Festival very successful Apple Festival and parade and I know my kids loved. You know being part of the Apple Festival and you know for it. It is what it is and I know there's a lot of maybe, maybe you listening out there, you avoided it, which is okay, and you wanted to have a quiet weekend. I mean, it is certainly a challenge with all the traffic and parking and you've just got to decide if it's something you're willing to undertake. But you know you could see the smiles on the faces and people just thrilled to celebrate Henderson County, the largest apple-growing county in North Carolina, and tens of millions of dollars of economic impact for our community and the agricultural community community, and not to mention the tradition and the legacy of our apple farmers and our apple growers, and we certainly celebrate that. You know what a incredible weekend it was. So again, thank you for all that participated, all that volunteered with that. It's amazing. It's amazing. Uh, here we are in September, just a few months left of the year. I know a lot of my friends that love Christmas. They said well, september 1st they're allowed to start playing the Christmas songs. It might be a little too early for the radio station, but you know it's interesting.

Speaker 1:

You know, this time of year, um, with the housing market, you know a lot of people are trying to decide. You know, do we sell our house, do we rent our house? I mean, there's a handful of people that certainly have said, hey, you know, we've tried to sell our house, but you know, if you hadn't gotten any offers, that you consider some people are saying, well, what if I do, if I don't sell? And there's a growing number of homeowners that have decided. Instead of getting concerned about that, they just say, well, maybe I should just rent it. And so there's actually a term in the industry for this, and it's called an accidental landlord, and this is actually how Yahoo Finance defines it. These accidental landlords are homeowners who tried to sell but couldn't fetch the price they wanted and instead have decided to rent out their homes until conditions improve. And so, you know, right now the number of homeowners turning into accidental landlords is rising, and Business Insider magazine said this. And Business Insider Magazine said this while there have always been accidental landlords, an error of middling home sales brought in by a steep rise in borrowing rates is minting a new wave of reluctant rental owners.

Speaker 1:

Now we're going to put some context on this because I know everybody's saying the sky is falling and the news cycles are saying the housing market's crashing, and we're going to address that and we're going to talk about that and we're going to talk about what it looks like to rent your home. If you're considering that Days on market are getting longer, we're seeing over an average of 60 days on the market, compared to what it was. I mean we used to see 20 and 30 days on the market, you know, compared to what it was. I mean we used to see, you know, 20 and 30 days on the market. Now we're at 60 days, so it's been a significant increase. It's not what it was in the sense of, you know, we've had. I remember and this is my 20th year of my broker's license where I remember distinctly in 2010 and 2011, six months was considered normal. Six months was considered normal for days on the market and here we're at 60 days. It's just still. It's all relative, so you know. So, when you hear the news and that you know days on market's getting longer, you know there's more inventory and buyers do have more choices. It's not that the sky is falling.

Speaker 1:

Our average single family home price over the last 12 months has been holding. We're around that 540 price range based around the last 12 months, and it's holding compared to the previous 12 months. And also we've had a slight increase in the number of home sales. We're averaging some 126 single family homes a month selling specifically in Henderson County. And of course we work in all of Western North Carolina Buncombe County, transylvania County, polk, rutherford County. We even work in Spartanburg and Greenville counties. Our team, we have an incredible group of agents and staff but I'm using the Henderson County numbers for context and this wonderful radio station, whkp 70 plus, coming up on 80 some years, you know, here serving the community, but you know, to give you some local news, I mean we're averaging 126 single family homes a month selling, and that's not even including condos or townhomes or land or commercial, which we work in all those arenas as well. The average price is in the 540s, but you know, so there's there, but again, compared to what it was.

Speaker 1:

And so this one we say this with a caveat. You know sales have slowed down, you know buyers are struggling with affordability and so it does leave some homeowners with listings that sit and go stale, and so, if they don't want to drop the price to appeal to buyers, they may rent instead. But here's the thing that you need to remember if renting your house has crossed your mind, becoming a landlord wasn't your original plan. There's probably a reason for that, and it comes with a lot more responsibility and risk than most people expect, and, by the way, you can find this on our most recent blog posts. People expect so, and, by the way, you can find this on our most recent blog posts. You can go to georgerilsteadgroupradiocom. But the thing is, there's a lot more to consider. And, by the way, we work closely with a number of property management companies, and that's the only thing they do. We at the George Real Estate Group do not do property management, because it's its own set of challenges and nuances and skill sets.

Speaker 1:

But here's the thing, though you got to ask yourself does my house even have the potential as a profitable rental? Just because you can rent it doesn't mean you should. Are you moving out of state? Managing maintenance from out of state isn't easy. Does the house need repairs before it's even rental ready, just like you have to get your house ready to go on the market to get the top dollar? What kind of condition is your house in to rent it out? And guess what, if there's some challenges with the like, if something, maintenance, if your HVAC system goes out I mean that is on you. Are you prepared to put in a new HVAC system goes out? I mean that is on you. Are you prepared to put in a new HVAC system?

Speaker 1:

But again, managing and moving, you know. If you're moving out of the state, you know, because you got a new job or family or whatever the situation is, managing the house from far away isn't that easy. I mean, does the home need repairs? Now, you know, do you even have the time or the funds, resources to do that? You know? And is your neighborhood one that typically attracts renters? And would your house be profitable as one?

Speaker 1:

So you know, if any one of these comments give you a pause, you might reconsider just selling it, um, rather than renting it. Also, is you know, on paper renting sounds like? You know, it's great, you get a check in the mail, but there's more about renting than just getting the passive income or the check in the mail. You know, again, if you're managing yourself it's the midnight calls about the clogged toilets or the broken air conditioning. It's the. You know, if your tenant's not paying on time, you could be chasing down the rent payments. Certainly you don't want to deal with bad checks and the cost associated with that. And then there's also the damage that can happen between tenants. So there was a comment from Redfin that said this Landlords have to fix things like broken pipes, defunct HVAC systems and structural damage, among other essential repairs.

Speaker 1:

And if you don't have a few thousand dollars on the hand to take care of these repairs, you could end up really in a bind. So it's one thing to if you have a mortgage and you're like, oh, I'm going to pay my mortgage, but there's also some other hidden costs that come with renting out your home. It's one thing if you're an investor and you've planned for this and the numbers make sense and you're working backwards from your plan and your numbers, but if you're an accidental landlord, there could be some hidden costs that just come with renting out your home. It could be the higher insurance premium. Landlord insurance typically costs 25% more. Also management fees, and again, we highly recommend and advise a management.

Speaker 1:

But if you use a property manager. They're typically charged around 10% of the rent. This is normal Maintenance and advertising to find the rent, the background checks, the credit checks, the applications that you have to process the gaps between tenants. Where, guess what, if you don't have somebody in place, you're covering the mortgage without the rental income, and so all that adds up fast. And so, while renting can be a smart move for the right person with the right house, if you're only considering it because your house isn't selling or it's not getting offers, there could be a better solution. If you're currently on the market, certainly talk to your existing agent, your current agent. You might want to revisit the strategy and the pricing and the marketing, and so, with your agent's advice, you can rework your strategy, relaunch at the right price and attract buyers to make the sale happen. And again, before you decide to rent your house, make sure you carefully weigh out the pros and the cons of becoming a landlord.

Speaker 1:

And so it's interesting. This is real, this is happening, and let's put some things in the context. We're still in a great market. We're still in a market that's moving. The interest rates are softening a little bit and the buyers have more choices, and this is a seller. You have more competition, and so it's more critical than ever to price your home correctly from the beginning. You know, and again, the market is not crashing. You know a lot of people are saying the market's crashing. You know, and and again. This is interesting. There was the recent survey. This is 70% of Americans are worried about a housing crash, but and that's why buyers and sellers are like, oh, we're going to wait and see what happens, we're not going to buy, we're not going to sell. Here's the truth. It's just shifting. It's not crashing, and actually, as a buyer, the shift could actually work in your favor, you know. The thing is, though, as a buyer, you have more options, and the truth is you have more options than what it was before, but it's not the end of the world, for sellers too.

Speaker 1:

The reason prices are still holding is because we still have low inventory levels. Do we have more homes for sale than we did before over the last 12 months? Yes, but it's still not significant. There's still not enough houses in the United States to keep up with the demand, and that's why prices are going to keep holding. I mean they might come down a little bit. Prices are softening, but you think about it. If there's a shortage of something like tickets to a concert, prices are going up and that's because supply and demand Same thing with homes. So we have a shortage of supply. You too many buyers, not enough homes. That's what pushes prices higher. So across the board, you know, we, we're seeing that because there's more homes for sale. That's where prices are softening. But again, it's not crashing. It's not the. It's not the. It's not the what it was in 2010 or 11.

Speaker 1:

Let's give some context. We had a two-year supply of inventory compared to we have a five-month supply of inventory. And let me clarify about inventory and supply and demand. Let's just use a simple example of a neighborhood. You know, a local neighborhood here might have 10 houses for sale, but if you look at the last 12 months, the neighborhood has been averaging two homes a month sell. So if it took, so if we're averaging two homes a month selling in that neighborhood and there's 10 for sale and there's nothing else that came and nothing else came in the market, it would take five months at that current rate. Guess what? If they were selling five homes a month and there was 10 homes for sale, that would mean there's a two month supply. If there's only one home a month selling in the neighborhood and there was 10 homes available, that means there was a 10 month supply. If there was 10 homes a month selling and there was only 10 homes available, that's a one month supply.

Speaker 1:

It's supply and demand and this is how we determine if it's a buyer's market or a seller's market. A balanced market is considered six months of inventory. Less than six months of inventory is a seller's market. More than six months of inventory is a buyer's market. But so it's not that the prices are falling nationally. It does mean because the increase in inventory means the prices are not rising as fast as they were, and this is according to Freddie Mac. They're expecting moderate appreciation to continue through the rest of this year.

Speaker 1:

They're quoted saying in 2025, we expect the pace of the house price appreciation to moderate from the level seen in 2024, while still maintaining a positive trajectory. And it doesn't mean that prices are going to go up in all the areas. It doesn't mean that you're going to see prices come down. And again it's like saying the national temperature is 72 degrees. You have some areas that are going to be hotter or colder because of the location. Same thing in real estate. I mean, that could even be true here in our own county. Some neighborhoods are going to be higher demand than other neighborhoods. Some price points are going to be higher demand than other price points. The point is, don't let the news scare you. Experts agree that a housing market crash is unlikely in 2025. A Business Insider report says this. Economists who study housing market conditions generally do not expect a crash in 2025 or beyond, in fact, unless the economic outlook changes. So we're heading into a housing market that's healthier, more balanced, slower price growth and, again, more opportunity.

Speaker 1:

So your specific home, your specific situation we know real estate happens around life and it could be a really positive reason why you're buying or selling. It could be a challenging reason. You. It could be a really positive reason why you're buying or selling. It could be a challenging reason, you know you could be celebrating a new job, you could be celebrating a growing family, you could be celebrating grandkids. It could be. You know some beautiful reasons why you're buying or selling. And then we've walked, along with our clients, through heartbreaking situations the death of a loved one, a job loss, maybe a financial challenge, maybe you're facing a foreclosure. This is real life. Life happens and so you know, whatever the situation is, it's not about, of course, the house is important, but it's more about the relationship, it's more about your situation, and so we take it from that approach your unique situation, your unique house and we're here to advocate, we're here to facilitate and we want to help you.

Speaker 1:

Again, it could be a really positive reason and it could be a really challenging reason, and when we have our confidential consultation with you, we can talk through everything. We can put a plan together. Are you looking to sell, then buy? Maybe you're looking to sell, then considering renting. Maybe you're going to buy and then sell. Maybe you're working through your estate of a family member, maybe it's whatever the situation, and I assure you we're still learning every single day.

Speaker 1:

We've had the privilege of coming up on 1600 families throughout the years. We've helped. We have an incredible team, we have incredible staff and and it'd be foolish for me to say we've seen it all, but we've certainly seen a lot but we will take a very specific approach to your house, your situation, and we'd love to have the conversation we can navigate through. Whatever you're facing, we can help you look to sell the property. We can set you up for success. Again, we would be honored to have the conversation. We do a two-step approach. If you're considering selling, we come out, we do an initial consultation and we go look at the house. We very rarely talk about price because I find it fascinating that real estate agents try to price a home the very first time they look at it. You know your home, the nuances behind it, the location, I mean whatever it might be. We're going to take a look at it and then we want to understand the condition, we want to understand the floor plan, the square footage.

Speaker 1:

We don't put any no offense to the tax. Our tax friends out there in the county, we know you're working, we know you're doing a job. That's required and no offense. But we don't put a lot of weight on the tax value, just like we don't put a lot of weight on Zillow. Zillow themselves even have a page on their website that says 80% of the time we get it within 20%. Do you know what a 20% difference is? On a $500,000 house, 20% could be as low as $400,000. It could be as high as $600,000. Themselves admit only 80% of the time they get it within 20%. It's just. It's really fascinating.

Speaker 1:

And so, again, we take a specific approach to your house and we want to help you navigate through. You know what that might look like and so we do a second appointment where we want to take a look at you know what is. What is your home in context of the market, the nuances, your neighborhood, your price point? You know there's your home in context of the market, the nuances, your neighborhood, your price point. You know there's so many pieces of the puzzle and then you get to decide and we present you with the data and you can decide what's right for you. Now I will say, in this market, if you're competing with 10 other homes similar to yours, you can price it where they're priced, but the truth is you're going to get lost and buyers are going to be looking at you and 10 other homes. But if you can and it's all relative, it doesn't mean by no means. The irony is, if you price it a little bit below your competition, you have the chance potentially for it to bid up higher, because you then stand out. You then become an outlier and buyers you're not going to get lost with buyers and we can track the data.

Speaker 1:

We know immediately when homes hit the market. The very first 24 hours is the best opportunity you have to get someone's attention, because there's not an unlimited amount of buyers out there. I shared with you we're averaging 126 single family homes a month selling, and so if buyers are in your price range and they're looking in your location and your criteria and your size and age, your first shot, your best shot, is within the first 24 hours, and so we want to set you up for success. We want to get you out the gate, and this is where you only get one chance up for success. We want to get you out the gate and this is where you only get one chance to be new.

Speaker 1:

We do our professional photography. We do our professional marketing. We do. We know what works. It's a proven and predictable process that, over the this is my 20th year of my broker's license and we know what works. Certainly have we I don't stand here, sit in front of you sharing We've got it right every single time, of course, that we're human, we learn, we're doing our best in our goal. Obviously, if we need to make adjustments, we make adjustments, but more than not, we price it correctly from the beginning and then, if we not, if we don't, we make adjustments, and that's okay, that's, that's part of life. You, you try, you give it your best efforts, you make adjustments and we adjust and we do that and it's okay to do that. And so we've done that with our sellers. We've set them up. We want to set them up for success, getting them out the gate from the beginning and because in a lot of cases, we'll get more money.

Speaker 1:

You might think, well, I want to price, I want to price and I want to build, build in some wiggle room. Well, the challenges with that is, if you overprice it, you have the chance of buyers overlooking you. They're going to look at other homes that are, they're priced more in line with the market. Buyers are more educated today than ever. They have access to the information and so all that to say your unique home, unique situation. We do a no pressure, no cost, no obligation. Consultation. There's no pressure and we can do it at our office. We can come by your home, we can do a Zoom call whenever you're comfortable with, but we're talking literally every single day to buyers and sellers. We're consulting them, we're working through what the market is and it's your specific situation.

Speaker 1:

I'm so excited tonight we have a free workshop tonight at the Self-Help Credit Union, right around the corner from here at the radio station, 100 Dana Road, from six to eight o'clock tonight. We're going to be talking with our friends there at Self-Help Credit Union and we're going to be talking about the home buying process. You'll get a chance to work with home loan professionals. We'll talk about getting pre-qualified, we'll talk about the major topics like budgeting, down payment, credit reports, debt-to-income ratios and the home buying process, and we have consultations every single day with buyers and sellers, and so this is an event tonight at the Self-Help Credit Union and we're excited to work with them tonight. Six to eight o'clock tonight at 100 Dana Road, here right around the corner. It's going to be a free workshop tonight. We'll have some refreshments. You'll get a chance to hear from local lenders. You'll get a chance to hear from our real estate brokers and, again, it's a free workshop tonight for home buying and we'd love to have the conversation tonight. You can ask questions. There's certainly no obligation, but get some free information.

Speaker 1:

We do these things regularly. Also, if you are on social media Facebook or Instagram or if you follow podcasts, we podcast all of our favorite. If you follow different podcasts. We podcast our radio show here. We do a number of radio shows each week, speaking of which, every Friday morning it's a privilege and honor to sponsor the Hometown Hero series and every week it's amazing to hear stories of men and women serving our community. Brittany Rowland, who continues to work with families in our area who were impacted by Hurricane Helene which again I know it's hard to believe we're coming up on a year. Brittany's going to be here tomorrow morning to tell us how you can contribute to the fund that supports victims of Helene who are still struggling. Tomorrow morning 845, we're going to honor Brittany Rowland.

Speaker 1:

And, of course, if you know somebody in the community that's making a difference, somebody that's an unsung hero, they could be out there very publicly serving. They could be behind the scenes working with our nonprofits or our churches or our schools. If you know somebody making a difference, please reach out to WHKP, nominate them. We have a number of stories every single Friday that we share and sharing the good news and again, this is what makes our community the generosity, the sense of community, the volunteering. You know we're certainly going to be having conversations upcoming again in regards to the anniversary of Helene. I know it's a marathon of a recovery and there's so many of our communities still in that healing process and it's important to remember that. It's important to support our community. We saw it. We saw it happen Neighbors helping neighbors. You know the people showing up out of nowhere and not by accident and we'll continue to tell those stories on the radio and on our Hometown Heroes series. But you certainly can reach out to WHKP, nominate someone that we can share about their story, and I've shared this before.

Speaker 1:

It's one of my favorite books. It's a book called Hero on a Mission and with any good movie, any good epic book you've ever read, if you really dive into it, there's four main characters and really it's what sets apart the epic stories. Maybe you think of Lord of the Rings or Star Wars or any of these epic stories. The storytelling is you have four main characters that makes an epic story and you have a victim you know someone, that's whatever challenge they're facing, then you have the hero, then you have a guide and you have the villain and you can pick out if you notice this, and when you're watching movies or reading a book, these four characters always show up. Now this book here on the mission by donald miller. Uh, he he's so eloquent in communicating about these four different roles, but he describes it so easily and simply.

Speaker 1:

But victims heal into heroes, and then heroes grow into guides and then villains are victims that never healed. But you can see that, you know, maybe you even do some own reflection in your own life and, by the way, you can be all four of them at any given point and you might say to yourself am I being a victim right now? Am I being a hero right now? Am I being a guide right now, or am I being a villain? But you know, certainly some pause for reflection. But we saw so many heroes show up in the face of Helene. And again people showing up, people showing up for other people, people that lost everything. They could have called themselves victims themselves, but they ended up being heroes for others. And then also the guides. The heroes grow into guides where they're helping others. They're been a hero for themselves, but then they become a guide to others. And then, of course and there's always a second chance, for sure. But anyways, recommend that book Hero on a Mission by Donald Miller.

Speaker 1:

But we love being here every Friday morning sponsoring the Hometown Hero series. We're here every Thursday morning with the Georgia Real Estate Group live radio broadcast here on WHKP. We've been actually doing this radio show since 2011. Share with you positive news. In 2011, by the way, we had over a two-year supply of inventory. You could certainly say the sky was falling then. We were only averaging some 70 homes a month selling and it was very common a six-month days on market to get a home sold. So I mean, not the market of what it was. We've certainly, the market has certainly evolved and there's and I don't make light of the challenges that we face now, but you know, the market's always evolving, the market's always moving, it's never just in one place, and so we're watching it.

Speaker 1:
