Prepared for Heather & David · 117 Blue Stem · The Meadows at 707
The launch price, the schedule behind it, the marketing that runs from day one, and clear math on what reaches you at closing. Homes this size in The Meadows have been averaging 131 days. This plan is built to beat that.
Hi David and Heather — great meeting you yesterday. The house looks beautiful. You have done something special with it.
I ran the numbers carefully. $329k after fees with a 90-day deadline is not realistic in this market. That can change, but it is not where we are today.
I also spoke with Keegan. He lives in the neighborhood, knows Heather well, and we work in the same office. He sees it the same way.
Everything below is what I would do if you hired me — the launch price, the schedule, the marketing, and the honest math on what lands in your pocket. If you want to list on that plan, I'm ready. If not, no hard feelings — and if one of my buyers is a fit I'll let you both know.
Thank you for the time.
— Jimmy
Three things decide whether you hire me. Read them in any order — the plan makes the most sense once you have seen the other two.
The buyer machine, the portals, the photography, and the confirmed showings with written feedback every week.

Nothing here is a renovation quote. It is your house, photographed as it is today, and then shown the way I would put it in front of buyers — light corrected, walls calmed, furniture re-imagined. Drag the bar and decide for yourself which one stops the scroll on a phone at 9pm.

Same brick, same roofline, same two-car garage. Shot at the right hour, with the beds cleaned up and the lights on, it stops being a listing and starts being a home. This is the first and often only image a buyer sees.

The vaulted ceiling, the beam, the bay window and the island are all already yours. The camera just has to stop fighting the yellow light and the busy wall.

Same cabinets, same appliances, same floor. A neutral wall and honest white balance make a 1,218 square foot plan photograph like it breathes.

This one is not a single answer — it is a demonstration. The furniture, the rug, the art, the palette: all of it can be changed for whoever is standing in the room. A young family sees one version, a retiring couple sees another, and neither of them has to squint past your things to picture their own. That capability is the difference between a buyer who scrolls past and a buyer who books a showing.
Second image in each pair is a digitally staged visualization of your existing rooms — lighting, paint, furnishings and landscaping only. No structural changes are shown, nothing is being represented as already done, and any photo used in marketing would be labeled as virtually staged.
Every buyer moving to this side of 707 asks the same question before they ask about the kitchen. This answers it in one image, and it goes out front.
About 13 minutes door to sand.
The Meadows at 707 sells two different kinds of house, and they behave nothing alike. Most agents will hand you the first list. Your house lives in the second one, and that is the list that decides how this goes.

Closed sales, The Meadows Hwy 707, Coastal Carolinas MLS. Pulled August 2026. 117 Blue Stem specs from Horry County records.
1,238 square feet, built 2012, three bedrooms — within twenty feet of your floor plan. It took 89 days. The 2,340 sf house on Meadowgrass took 36. Square footage is doing more work in this neighborhood right now than the neighborhood is, and any plan that ignores that costs you a summer.
This is the evidence the plan is built on. Every one of these is someone else's house — different lot, different condition — but the size-matched list is the shelf your buyer is shopping. That list, not the new-build list, is what sets the launch price on the next page.
543 Meadowgrass launched at $339,900, cut to $324,900, and is 154 days in without closing. Overpricing does not get corrected by time. It gets corrected by discount.
149 Blue Stem sold twice — $290,000 in 2022, then $300,000 in 2023. Buyers who shop this street have a memory, and I plan for that.
Realty ONE Group Dockside brought the buyer on 571 Meadowgrass Ct. this past June — the most recent closed sale in the community.
Every sale on the size-matched list was a 2009–2012 build like yours. You are not competing with the new construction on price per foot — you are competing with four houses, and I know all four.
A road map, agreed up front and in writing, so nobody has to have an awkward conversation in week six. Every step is scheduled before we ever go live — which is exactly why this plan finishes inside 100 days when the community average is 131.
That is the whole strategy in one line. Five of the six size-matched sales in The Meadows closed between $282,500 and $310,000 — $290,000 to $300,000 sits right in the middle of the range buyers in this community actually pay. Launching at $315,000 buys us the room to find out whether the market will stretch above it. The schedule makes sure we find that out in weeks instead of seasons, and small $5,000 moves keep the listing reading as deliberate rather than desperate. A house that cuts $15,000 at once teaches every buyer to wait for the next one.
The honest headline: at a $315,000 sale, what reaches you lands in the low $290,000s — somewhere between $33,000 and $37,000 short of the $329,000 you need, depending on the buyer-side commission and any repair credits. That gap is too wide to force with a price cut, and I would rather say it now than in November. Run it yourself below.
Move the buyer-agent slider. Type your payoff if you want the real walk-away — I have not filled it in, because that number is yours and I do not have it.
| Sale price | Commissions | Closing costs | Estimated proceeds |

Estimates for discussion, not a settlement statement. Assumes a 3% listing side, the buyer side per the slider, SC deed stamps at 0.37%, about $550 attorney and $195 processing. Prorations, taxes, HOA transfer and payoff interest all vary at closing. My email to you used a flat 7% all-in, which is the same answer rounded conservatively — set the repairs field to about $3,000 and the two match.

Lynne E. · Google$315,000 on day zero, the schedule above in writing, everything in the marketing section switched on the same week. I am ready to go when you are.
The $329,000 is not there today. It may be later, and markets move. No hard feelings — and if one of my buyers turns out to be a fit for this house, I will let you both know either way.
What I will not do is take the listing at a number I do not believe, collect the sign rider, and let the house sit until you are the ones asking for the price cut. That is how a house gets stale, and a stale house sells for less than an honestly priced one. You would rather hear this from me yesterday than from the market in November.
