Dear , I look forward to the Spring Golf schedule each year which includes The Masters, The Heritage, and the BMW Pro Am, all in our area. I hope the weather reflects the season as the tournaments get under way, but you never know this time of the year. The real estate market is showing signs of having another record year which will be the fourth in a row and my new listing business has surprised me. If you're thinking about selling and moving up or right sizing while interest rates remain low, call me to learn more about The Buyer's Broker comprehensive approach.

I hope you enjoy this month's newsletter and I hope you will forward it to your friends, family, and colleagues who may be thinking about buying or selling a home. All my best, Keith (864-420-0262)
The number of transactions was up 10.8% year over year for the month of February and two months in a row of double digit increases makes it a trend. It looks like it will be another record year for our market and although it's not a surprise, the size of the increase is a surprise. Pricing and activity continue to reach all-time highs!


We at The Buyer's Broker believe the more you know, the more you will want The Buyer's Broker of Greenville to represent you in your next real estate transaction.
The Federal Reserve raised interest rates in a much-anticipated move that comes as both U.S. & global economic fundamentals continue to strengthen. The Fed's decision to raise interest rates by a quarter of a percentage point puts the federal funds rate at its highest level since 2008. The decision, while widely expected, sent the yield on the benchmark 10-year Treasury soaring. Treasury's, mortgage rates shrugged off last week's drop and continued their upward march. The U.S. weekly average 30-year fixed mortgage rate rose 1 basis point to 4.45 percent in this week's survey.

Bennett played Jack in the SCS Spring Production of "The Importance of Being Earnest". It was his first lead role and I think it was perfect for him! It was a great success and Mary and I appreciate all of you who attended. Mom and Dad were very proud!

Mary and I had dinner at Soby's this month and it was obvious that it is still the City's signature restaurant. The food was great and they have one of the best Wine Lists in the city. Carl is still the man when it comes to the Greenville restaurant scene and he's become such a celebrity you rarely bump into him anymore.
