Strategic marketing to LGBTQ+ buyers and beyond. Let's get you the best price in today's market.
Selling in Asheville's Unique Market
Hey! I'm Dylan, and I've been helping folks sell their Asheville homes since 2019. The market has changed dramatically - especially post-Helene - and you need someone who understands both the challenges and opportunities.
Whether you're relocating, upgrading, or just ready for something new, I'll help you navigate the current market and get the best possible price for your home.
Post-Helene Market Reality
What's Changed Since October 2024
- •Buyer pool has shifted: Fewer out-of-state buyers, more locals upgrading
- •Pricing matters more: Overpriced homes are sitting, well-priced homes still move
- •Condition is critical: Move-in ready homes have huge advantage
- •Location matters: Undamaged areas seeing stronger demand
